My children bought this for my wife's 50th birthday. What a beautiful and fun experience. Tucson Balloon Rides and pilot Kevin Wilbur provided a great experience and we thoroughly enjoyed it. I highly recommend it and hope you have a wonderful time enjoying Tucson from an entirely new perspective.

What a great day. My dad and I were celebrating his 79th birthday and he commented afterward that it was one of the best things he had ever done. He keeps commenting on how spectacular it all was. Thanks to everyone at Tucson Balloon Rides for making his day and mine as well.

I thought this would be a bit scary but not at all. Even if you do not like heights, you won't mind going up in a balloon. It is peaceful and serene. I loved this and am so glad I made myself do it. What a thrill. The pilot was knowledgable and a great tour guide. A must do for... More

My family of four had an absolutely wonderful time on our flight with Kevin and Tucson Balloon Rides. It was our first hot air balloon ride and it could not have gone better. We had to rise very early, but it was well worth the effort. We were treated to the moon setting on one side and the sun rising... More

We popped up into the air just as the sun was rising making it one of the most spectacular ever. The trip sailed smoothly and the landing, while bumpy, was not too bad. The views were amazing, the pilot was very helpful. This has to be put on everyone's bucket list.

As I said to my family members (who were not with me), "Freaking amazing!" A delight from beginning to end. Pilot Kevin not only knows what he is doing as a master pilot of the Tucson Balloon, but he is enjoyable, humorous, and an all-around great tour guide. HIGHLY recommended for first timers and returning balloon enthusiasts!

Beautiful sunrise and not that cold despite being December 26th. We learnt a lot from Kevin about how ballooning 'works' and had a great trip over the National park and mountains which was exactly the route we wanted to see our horse riding areas. For us, preferable to taking off over the city. No problem at all with being up... More

You have to get up early for the sunrise, but it is certainly worth it! We were picked up at our hotel right on time and received a check-in call both the night before and right before the driver arrived. Totally professional. We loved watching the crew set up the balloon before take-off, it was a real education in how... More

Spent a chilly morning with my husband high over Tucson and could not have asked for a better way to start my day. The ride was amazing and the views were breathtaking. If you have the opportunity--TAKE IT! I will recommend this to all my local and visiting friends as something to add to their "To Do" list. Thank you... More
