If you're wondering whether the hot air balloon ride is worth the splurge price, I say do it. Albuquerque offers an unique landscape to see from the balloon, broad, bright blue skies from which to view and, from our experience, gentle winds to escort you across the sky.
Our balloon team support team and pilot, Troy, were extremely friendly and helped us enjoy a great experience up close including inflating the balloon, flying and landing (amazing how a landing on a relatively small plot of land is possible). While it was a relatively cold winter day, there is no wind while in the air (since you're traveling at the same speed of the wind), the heat of the flame kept us warm. The views are terrific with the pilot pivoting the basket numerous times so we could enjoy the views in all directions.
We checked out 2 companies for a last minute booking. Rainbow Ryders were the most professional and efficient. Great experience from start to finish.
