We booked with Groupon and traveled to Temecula (10 hour drive) only to have the flight canceled due to weather--twice. So be warned, if you have to come from a distance this might not be the activity to do, as they don't have weather information for the flight until 3pm the day before. Our last trip we didn't make lodging... More

I agree with the previous reviews that they are difficult to get a hold of. However, once you schedule the trip, they do follow up with reminders and everything seems to go smoothly. We arrived a little before 6 am and joined everyone for a pre-flight mimosa. The scenery in Temecula is very nice from the air. The flight was... More

We celebrated recently with a sunrise balloon ride in Temecula. I had purchased the ride through Groupon to surprise my husband for Christmas and scheduled the trip to coincide with my birthday. I had experienced a sunset balloon ride with another company many years ago with a previous partner and thought that it would be romantic for my husband. We... More

AMAZING. This is an experience I will never forget! While yes it can be tricky getting ahold of the staff for reservations it's completely worth it. The welcoming and return receptions were great but the flight was amazing! Our pilot was super experienced and very funny and entertaining. Instead of being in the air for 40-60 minutes like the ad... More

We actually found this deal for Sunrise balloons on travel zoo, and are we glad we did! Although it sure is an early start to the day, it's well worth it. Who wouldn't want a mimosa before sunrise? :) The staff was very fun and accomodating, and the balloon pilots entertaining and knowlegable. We had a great time. More

This was a class act. Very professional. We started at Monte de Oro Winery with coffee, juice, champagne, and warm cinnamon buns with Marco as the host. He is very personable and enjoys people. When all the guests arrived, we walked to the balloon. We had pictures taken around and in the balloon. Then it was time to get in... More

So the "sunrise" part of their name is not a joke. You have to be at the meet-up location between 5:30-6a, depending on the time of actual sunrise. From there, they ply you with coffee and pastries while the balloons inflate. It was a great experience, right down to the inflight champagne picnic (with apples, cheese & crackers). Most importantly:... More

I have tried several times to call them and have never had a live person - regardless of what time I call. They usually call me back after several attempts but then they lose my information. For example, I probably e-mailed them 2-3 times my groupon coupon number and they still ask me for it since I had to reschedule... More

Enjoyed Sunrise Balloons with my wife on my birthday in December 2011. Great service, perfect weather, easy take-off and landing. Couldn't ask for anything more! Great pix taken by staff and posted for free on Facebook - easy to download and enjoy! Sign up with these folks... good times! More
