Worth the experience

What a great experience!! Everything went smoothly abd it was impressive watching the crew handle the balloons- even landing on the bed of a truck with a gentle touchdown. The grotto breakfast was an experience and the pyramids are beautiful. A very good day!

Relaxing morning

Great day! Communication the day before was clear with instructions and quick to respond. Pickup was on time. Check-in was easy with warm coffee to start the morning. Next was pictures- though photographer was so friendly I wish pictures had been with no people in the background. Instructions on balloon basket were clear and ride Was so smooth. I wish we could have gotten closer to ruins but was told it was due to lack of wind. Despite that ride was relaxing And the landing was impressively smooth over a cacti field. Team was super Friendly! 10/10 recommend.

Safe, reliable, and super cool

This was definitely a nice experience. We did not go over the pyramids which was a bummer but the flight was smooth and felt safe the entire time. The pilot and guide spoke English which was nice. The pick up was punctual. Overall it was great.
