Our balloon ride couldn’t have been more magical! After our original morning ride got cancelled due to the weather, rainbow ryders were able to accommodate us for a sunset experience (for an added fee) on another date. Patrick was our pilot and the chase crew were amazing! They made the experience so fun and enjoyable. We went higher, farther, and longer than any of the other balloons and were lucky enough to also be in one of the newest and largest balloons they had in stock! We were able to fly during the balloon fiesta which multiplied the experience ten-fold! Couldn’t have asked for a better team to fly above the Albuquerque sky and share a glass of bubbly to end the day at sunset. A+

We are honored to have gotten an A+ from you! Sunset flights are so beautiful in the Albuquerque area. Patrick is such a wonderful pilot to fly with and loves to go give his passengers that amazing 360-degrees view from the highest point he can go. The new Rainbow Ryders balloon that we have, made its first debut at the Balloon Fiesta, which makes your flight one of the first flights for that balloon. What a better way to end a sunset flight than with a toast of bubbly. Thank you for flying with us during one of the best times of the year!
