A serial entrepreneur who lists a local honey business as part of his diverse portfolio, along with eco-friendly office space, and a luxury house building division, has another venture which is really taking off due to the unprecedented spell of fine weather.
Daniel Webster (25) from Kinross, runs Webster Adventures, a company offering hot air ballooning experiences for groups of up to four people.
Launched in 2014, Webster Adventures is already flying high in the ballooning world, having flown in countries such as Italy, France and Austria. Webster Ballooning has been flying the balloon from Kinross on hour long experiences taking in Loch Leven and other sights.
Extremely eye catching due to its distinctive bright orange colour, the signature colour of all of Daniel Webster’s business endeavours, the balloon is a Z105 Cameron balloon. It has competed in a number of worldwide ballooning events, by being one of 125 balloons to cross the English Channel and to be part of 450 balloons in Metz, France, bagging two world records!
Webster Adventures is unique in allowing a minimum of two people to enjoy one of its flights, as most other operators ask for a minimum of five. It also offers a seven day anytime voucher for maximum flexibility, and for recipients to redeem the voucher at a time to suit.
Said Daniel Webster: “The glorious weather has certainly given us a major boost with Webster Adventures, we have had perfect conditions of late to explore the skies above Fife and Perthshire to great effect. Pete Forster, formally the owner and operator of Alba ballooning, is a great pilot and an asset to the business.”
“We feel that by offering these flights to couples, it’s ideal for a romantic trip or even a proposal – in fact we are hoping for an actual wedding ceremony to take place in the balloon one day soon!”
He finished: “Our ballooning experiences, glass of champagne in hand, are the perfect corporate incentive activity too, as well as the significant birthdays and anniversary market.”

Webster Adventures is part of the Webster Group of companies, operating a diverse leisure, business & construction portfolio consisting of a luxury housebuilding division, Webster Homes, a self storage company, eco friendly office space, contracting & property developing firm, Webster Developments, and a venture producing local honey.
