Check this one off of your bucket list. Amazing experience, smooth ride and outstanding views. Our operator, Al, was experienced and knowledgeable. Champagne toast at sunset is a nice touch. The only thing that would improve the experience would be to have less than 10 people in the basket. 8 would have greatly improved the experience. 10 was tight.

We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed your flight with Al and that he was able to provide you with the most memorable bucket list experience possible! He is great at what he does and enjoys sharing this passion for hot air ballooning with our passengers. We hope to fly with you again soon!

The flight itself was disappointing. It seems like the van trip to the departure area was longer than the flight. The flight was low altitude over a couple of subdivisions and then landed. Very disappointed. Very over priced.

Hi John, We are very sorry to hear that your, or our expectations of this flight, were not met. Our flight team works very hard to ensure each of our passengers leaves with a lasting memory and we are sorry that we missed the mark on that. Unfortunately, hot air ballooning is a fair weather sport and we are at the mercy of mother nature, which sometimes does not play in our favor. We try to provide our passengers with the best and most scenic flight possible, but we do have to go where the wind conditions are best. Thank you for your feedback, and we hope this helps to better understand the flight operation. Again, we are very sorry we were not able to provide you with the bucket list experience you had hoped for and hope you will consider flying with us again in the future.
