5.00My second ballon ride but the first for my DIL who has a fear of heights. Our driver to the site was Earl and he was wonderful. His fun conversation eased her fears. The entire staff was fantastic! The breakfast at the end of the ride was great. I would HIGHLY recommend this tour company to all!

5.00The hot air balloon experience was such a fun and unique one! The guys that helped with flying it and landing it kept us informed the whole time and made us feel safe. The breakfast we had afterwards was also delicious and fostered a sense of community between those that flew in the balloon with us. I would totally do it again!

5.00What a great experience! We brought our two grandsons (9 and 11) for a sunrise balloon ride. Scott, our hot air balloon extraordinaire, was amazing. The information he provided as we drifted over mountains and valleys was wonderful. The hot air balloon ride went off without a hitch, and the views were amazing!
