What To Expect

Begin your adventure by meeting your crew just north of Phoenix about 30 minutes before sunrise for this 4-hour experience. Take a short van ride to the launch area for this scenic flight. After you arrive, experience the inflation of the balloon by motorized fans as it grows to an enormous 11 stories tall. Once the envelope is filled with air, the propane burners are ignited to heat the air inside. It takes about thirty minutes before you are ready for flight. Join your pilot in the hand-crafted, oversized wicker basket with plenty of room for everyone to enjoy an approximate 45-minute ride. As you takeoff, admire how light the balloon feels. During the flight, you have an unobstructed view to take excellent photographs. Upon landing you are greeted with flutes of champagne and breakfast. First-time riders will be treated to the legendary ceremony that balloonists all over the world have been sharing for more than two centuries.

You you will see, many Air Balloon Rides that are offered. This is the one you must choose! You get a champagne 🥂 toast after your journey and you land. They set up tables with linens in the middle of the dessert where you will have a light breakfast of fruit, quiche and a croissant along with water, orange or cranberry juice. All the men that make this adventure for you are simply amazing! You get a personal certificate and a go pro video of the entire set up of your balloon and your take off. The “Pilot” Scott is very knowledgeable and explains in detail everything he is doing and what’s happening. I say Pilot in quotes because you can’t steer the balloon however, he does through the air currents. As I mentioned above, this is a MUST trip to do and I guarantee you will not be disappointed…! They offer more than the others and are priced lower. They also offer you souvenirs to purchase. We got our champagne 🍾 flutes that have the 🎈 prayer to remember our special day along with a beautiful hand made Christmas ornament.
