We wanted to celebrate a birthday 🥳 & thought what better way than to cross an item such as riding in a hot air balloon off our bucket list ?! It was amazing!!

Everything was well from beginning to end. Staff was professional. Mike the pilot was fantastic. Cute champagne toast at the end which is symbolic of the history of hot air balloons and small plate food sampling was good. Fantastic experience and bucket list adventure. The ride is thrilling at take of and landing but very peaceful in between. The pilot is super knowledgeable and will answer any questions you have along the way.
