We had a wonderful ride, Brooke was a great Capitan. It was more than I expected with a fun crew. My sons and I had the best Mother's Day ever!

Went on a balloon ride while in town by myself last week. What an amazing, peaceful and fun experience. The crew was fun and upbeat and cracking jokes on the ride back. Our pilot Brooke was great as well. He kept us informed and entertained. I would do it again in a minute! Thanks.

Thank you so much Brook for the ride of a lifetime. It was so quiet and peaceful. The dip to the Rio Grande (almost made it), touching the tree tops, smooth landing and delightful ending.

Rainbow Ryders provided a really terrific experience from start to finish on our April 29 sunrise balloon flight.

It's an early start, but the crew is organized and you're not just wasting your time getting up early. They're professionals and the "pre-flight"... More

I would highly recommend taking a balloon ride while in ABQ! Rainbow Ryders were very professional, experienced and friendly. The views were amazing and I never once felt nervous or afraid. Beautiful views of the mountains and city and a fun champagne toast to finish the morning! By far the highlight of our trip - and year!!

Thanks Rainbow Ryders - Our trip was AMAZING !!!! It was the first time for both of us and the crew was very informative, helpful and friendly! I highly reccommend this company ! Thanks for the fun time !

I had promised my Gal a Hot Air Balloon ride a long time ago so I bought a couple tickets for us to go with Rainbow Riders. Mike, our pilot, was a perfect host.
