Well organized event - very serene up in the air with gorgeous view of the valley. The staff in general was very friendly except for our pilot, who was experienced but somewhat grumpy.
I have done the Balloon ride in Napa twice before and loved it. Unfortunately, there was thick fog and we were bused about 45 minutes to Winters for our ride. The farmland just doesn't compare to the beauty of of Napa vineyards. We were given the option of cancelling, but after getting up that early and driving 30 minutes to our meeting site, we decided to go for it. I wish we would of cancelled and kept our money.
It's still a great experience, but the landscape was a let down. Our pilot did a great job so I give Chris a high 5!
The experience was wonderful. Mr. Mike was resposible for our ballon, extremely sympathetic and tell us about the views, secutrity during the flight. The meeting point is beautiful, the breakfast delicious. the trip was perfect.
