Bob and his crew were excellent and made the day one we would remember forever. They were very accommodating and despite weather being shaky the day before (we weren't sure if we were going to be able to fly) we were still able too, and I'm so glad we did. Thanks to Bob and his crew! I would higly recommend.

Had a great time. Bob and his team were great and made our experience very enjoyable. Bob has been flying since 76 and it definitely shows. Couldn’t have asked for a better pilot, team or experience. If you’re looking to book a flight book with Balloons and Beyond

This was an outstanding experience!!! Even for the faint of heart. Our pilot Curt eased the anxiety of the birthday boy and one less item on the "Bucket List". The team of guys are very personable and comedic. A must do!!!!!!!!

Enjoyed the flight especially the launch site!!! Beautiful ride!!! Bob and his team gave us "First Class" treatment. It was my husband & my 36th wedding anniversary!! Our song is "If you believe in Miracles". Bob and his team made a Miracle come true for us today!! We really enjoyed everything from setup to take off and landing. Bob & his team were very knowledgeable of everything and made you feel very comfortable. We would recommend Balloons & Beyond to all our family & friends to enjoy. Thank you for making our day special!!!

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our balloon ride! From set-up to landing this is a truly unique experience. The pilot and crew were extremely friendly and knowledgeable. We had spectacular views of the Tampa area with educational commentary about the area from our pilot. It was so peaceful floating through the air. What made it even better was watching the other balloons take off and float along with us! I highly recommend it!

My mom has always wanted to go on a hot air balloon ride, so for a Mother's day present, I made reservations for us. It was an AWESOME experience! Absolutely loved
Capt. Bob and Super Dave! Definitely recommend Balloons and beyond! Trusted immediately that we were in good hands.

I highly recommend this ride. It was beyond my expectations and definitely will go again.
The weather was indeed perfect and Bob and team made it fun and relaxing for an early morning venture. Both taking off and landing was smooth and enjoyable. The sight below was simply fantastic. Make it a must, then you can describe the feeling and the "what took you so long" to give it a try.
Thanks again, "Balloon and Beyond" you make me ... wanna do it again, pretty soon.

Our 1st Balloon ride. Weather was perfect that Sunday at 6am. Bob Carlton owner and Pilot Kurt and others were also very kind, good at what they do and helped make our 1st trip a wonderful memory!

I've been wanting to do this since I was a little kid! I finally did and was way more nervous than I anticipated, but YOLO!! Bob made the experience amazing!!! He let us enjoy it, showed us the area (over 4 miles and up to 2600 ft), and explained how it works w/ weather and all. He was really nice and it was beautiful during sunrise! ⛅️
