Balloon tours to open in Nha Trang

      Starting this July, locals and tourists can float at a height of 150 meters over Nha Trang City and enjoy spectacular views of the town and Nha Trang Bay in south-central Khanh Hoa Province.
The balloon flight, which will last about 20 minutes, will offer visibility over a radius of 15-20 square kilometers.
General Director of the Hon Tam Nha Trang Beach Joint Stock Company, Doan Van Trang, said his company has signed a contract with a French manufacturer to import a balloon worth 1.2 million euros (US$1.5 million) to provide the service in Hon Tam Island.
The company has sent three staff members to France for training in flying and maintaining the balloon, Trang said.
