A 75-meter airship to admire the beauties ofIle de France, from Eiffel Tower al Palace of Versailles. You fly for 30-90 minutes at prices from 250 euros. Definitely not a low cost price, we know, but sometimes there are occasions that do not have half terms. Do you want to take an airship tour? This is the price and unfortunately it is not low. Do it if: you have to surprise someone, you have to make a request or you have to be forgiven for something, otherwise look at it from below!
But let's go in order, so maybe you want to take a ride anyway, albeit expensive. The mythical Zeppelin, which seeks to make a comeback. He just flies over the rooftops of Paris. A praise of slowness, slow tourism, a wide view, to take the time, indeed to recover the time, admiring one of the most romantic cities in the world. The flying balloon conceived in early twentieth century by Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin has never ceased to fascinate. In Germany in Friedrichshafe the company that produces it since 2001 has inaugurated tourist tours with routes on Lake Constance, but from this weekend the Zeppelin has again crossed the German borders and has conquered France or rather the Paris region with operated flights. from the company Airship Paris.
You go by 30 minutes for a maiden voyage, to the 60 minutes of the flight to La Roche Guyon castle where you fly over the Château de Villette, guest star in The Da Vinci Code, to the 90 minutes of the Versailles tour with bonus for the Château de Monte-Cristo, country residence by Alexandre Dumas father. Always 60 minutes, however, requires a tour of the Château de Chantilly and the landscape that inspired the Impressionists. All tours fly off fromPontoise airport, north-west of the Ville Lumière, showing the Eiffel Tower and the La Defense area in perspective.
Solo 12 passengers they can fly over the region at an altitude of 300 meters on a 75-meter-long aircraft traveling at 70 kilometers per hour. There have never been airship tourist flights in France, in fact the Zeppelins, used for this purpose in the XNUMXs and XNUMXs, had other routes that went from Germany to the United States and Brazil, but unfortunately in Paris before now they had been sighted only during the First World War and with anything but playful purposes. Will any of you try them? :D
