Our team
The pilot
Herve MAUCCI is the manager of MVTHM and the pilot who will gladly help you discover his region. With more than 1,800 flight hours, Herve has been a balloon pilot since 2002. Thanks to his extensive experience, he has flown in many different regions of France.
Herve also regularly flies his hot-air balloon in high mountain areas such as the Alps, Switzerland and Italy, which makes him a highly experienced pilot. He also provides his services for video reports and television productions.
He has always taken part in ever more inventive projects. In partnership with the Naturalive association, they once performed a first-of-its-kind 360-degree artistic performance filmed inside the balloon. For your balloon ride in the Luberon, Herve will be delighted to share his experience with you.
The crew
A hot-air balloon ride in the Luberon could not take place without the crew members. They are just as important as the pilot.
They help prepare the balloon and are present at landing to pack it away with the pilot and bring all passengers back to our departure platform. You will have the chance to meet them during your flight with us!
Nothing would have happened without the meeting with Alain GAUCHE, a former pilot in Roussillon and Villard-de-Lans, who taught Herve the ins and outs of the profession. Alain no longer pilots balloons, but he still enjoys seeing them in the sky and regularly joins the basket as a passenger.
