Great experience and great team!
Published on Feb, 2025
Sunday Gupta was an amazing pilot. We felt comfortable for our first hot air balloon experience! All team members were awesome and pleasant!
Beautiful view

Super worth it! We had Patrick who was really good at what he did. We went as high as 9000 feet and it was fun waving at the residents down below. The view of Phoenix during sunset was absolutely gorgeous! Be sure to wear a cap though cause the occasional times they put on some heat can be a little hard on your scalp. Overall I totally recommend!
Fun time!

Must do once, bucket list item! Company was very professional. Had a fun time. Pilot was great. It isn’t inexpensive but recommend doing it at least once.

We had a really great experience! Jon was an excellent pilot and kept us laughing. I felt safe and comfortable the whole time, despite being afraid of heights.
