Rainbow Ryders does it right. Their office is new and professional-looking. There is a large viewing window to their garage where you can see the various crews loading up the balloons. They host several groups at once but check-in was very easy/efficient. My kids (aged 9 and 7) were the youngest participants and fit right in. We hopped in a van with our group (we had the largest group at ~11) and arrived on site as the sun was rising. You are right there as the balloon inflates which helps build the excitement. In no time we were loaded into the basket and up we went. Jesse, our pilot, was knowledgeable and experienced and we spent >45 mins in the air. The time flew by because the ride was so peaceful and there was so much to see. My kids loved it, even the one who was initially scared. Afterwards they do a nice champagne/orange juice toast to celebrate the trip while the crew packs up. Then back at the office they serve a continental breakfast and hand out certificates to all of the riders. It was a truly amazing experience.

We love allowing our passengers to be a part of every step of the experience, even watching as our crew team prepares everything in the shop! It sure is incredible how magical the experience is, isn't it? You never truly realize the size of the balloon until it begins to inflate.
We are glad to hear your children were able to conquer their fears and check off their bucket list with us!
Cheers to soaring to new heights and we hope to see you and your family again soon!
