Today's hot air balloon ride was our Father's Day gift to my husband and it was amazing! The entire experience from the continental breakfast to the gift bags at the end made the day wonderful. Our pilot was very experienced and very willing to share his knowledge of flight. Smooth flight, great views. Overall outstanding day!

I chose to celebrate my golden birthday by floating in a hot air balloon. I rode in a basket with a total of 12 people (including the pilot) and felt totally safe, secure and involved. The ride was smooth and pleasant and offered beautiful views of the mountains--I could just make out downtown Denver. We went over 9,000 feet and... More

This is an attraction that one must see when visiting the Denver CO. area. The crew and pilots were outstanding in the're professionalism and knowledge of how the balloons work and how they navigate the different air pressures. Our pilot had over 40 years of experience and made sure that all passengers were set at ease on everything we were... More

We flew with Ed and his crew at Balloon Fiesta in Albuquerque. The balloon ride was amazing, and the pilot and crew really added to the experience. Their enthusiasm and passion was contagious. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!

I wanted to create an experience, something that would last a lifetime for my mom's 70th. She always said a ride in a hot air balloon was one of her dreams. She said this when I was growing up and lost it's momentum over time. Nonetheless, I remembered her dream! SO...I made it happen by booking the adventure. Jeff, Rose... More

This place is top notch! The actual balloon ride was amazing all on it's own and the details added by Jeff and his crew knocked it out of the park. My boyfriend and I flew to CO and were only on the ground for 36 hours just for this activity. It was totally worth the hasty traveling and lack of... More
