5.00Super fun experience watching the crew prepare the balloons. Our Pilot Pete was very experienced and gave us a breathtaking ride across Temecula wine country! He would drop so low you'd think you could pluck up an orange and we waved to people in local inns. Then we'd soar high for better long range views. He amd his crew was so good he landed our basket right on their trailer!
Perfect Expereince

5.00The Great Escape was "great" from the beginning. Very informative, answered all of my questions quickly. Our pilot Pete and his team was fantastic. We had such an amazing day. Smooth ride and even got to enjoy a few extra minutes in the air then expected. The drone operators and photographers were on top of it and I can't wait to see the footage from it.
Such amazing views! Great Crew!!
