We had friends coming from out of state, and they wanted to take a balloon ride. We had used another company in the past so we booked through them originally. Disappointingly, that company cancelled the ride four days in advance, supposedly due to weather. We did not want our guests to be disappointed, so we called California Dreamin'. We are all grateful to Dave and his staff for saving our friends' vacation! They are raving about the fun time they had in the air. Our friends had a great time, and afterward we were able to join them for breakfast and meet Dave, and talk with him. He is very knowledgeable and personable, and his staff was very nice. They offered us champagne and cake, even though we were not part of the tour. We would like to thank them for a great day, and recommend California Dreamin' very highly for both the ride itself, and for reliability! We will set up future balloon rides with Dave exclusively.
