After vendor presentations at the Sheraton Desert Oasis resort in Scottsdale, I decided that Rainbow Ryders made the cut. This is one situation where instinct and results melded well and the event was a total success. On September 8, my daughter and I did the ride and it was excellent, start to finish. We never felt safety was compromised and the whole experience was positive, with bursts of enlightenment, tranquility and the rush of new experience throughout. Jon, our skipper, was a master in the art and skills of ballooning and his passion for the hobby showed by his thorough knowledge of the history and nuances of the sport. As Nike says, "Just Do It!"

An amazing experience with the grand kids. Was able to check this off the bucket list while making memories with the daughter and her kids. Everyone had a great time. The ground crew to the pilot were all very professional. An experience unlike any other. Try it, you will like it!

We loved our experience with Rainbow Riders. The ground crew did and excellent job getting us up before sunrise. Watching the sun come up over the mountains was a great way to start the day. Our pilot Patrick was so fun and made us feel completely safe and comfortable. The champagne toast at landing was cool. Thank you for a beautiful ride!
