Who knew hot air ballooning could be so much fun? The experience with Hot Air Expeditions completely exceeded my expectations. The entire team was great - from the ground crew to our pilot Captain Patrick who kept everyone laughing and having a great time. We went from quietly gliding over the desert and checking out the wildlife to soaring to... More

Wonderful time !!! Captain Walter was great ~ even turned the balloon to allow both sides to take pics easier. Smooth easy glide thru Gods canvas where Mother Earth really shows out. We would do again! Our basket actually had someone afraid of heights and they did fine. .... Do be on time for the van pick-up to be considerate... More

Like many, I was concerned I would be terrified going up in a hot air balloon, but agreed to do it for my husband as an anniversary present. It was great! The crew was friendly, our captain (Tommy) was great fun, but instilled total confidence, and there was zero fear. The company hung a "Happy Anniversary" banner for us &... More

Wow! Hot Air Expeditions really does a great job!

It was fascinating to watch the crew prepare the balloon for flight and... More

From the start to the finish our crew was awesome. Captain Tommy was very informative and had a great sense of humor. Our group trip was for our friends birthday so the crew had a birthday coffee cake with a candle and they sang happy birthday. They truly made it a special trip. I highly recommend this trip!

Wow. I am afraid of heights real bad and decided to do this and I am thrilled I did. This was awsome. It is NOT scary in the least bit. It is so great as you get to help set up the balloon and experience the whole set up process. Then the ride is spectacular ! The view is awsome... More

These tours are amazing, and the people running it make it so. I can't think of any other con than you have to wake up extra early to be there for the sunrise. Our captain Mike was funny and explained a lot of things as we passed them. The ground crew was also extremely courteous and polite as well. We... More

I have wanted to go up in a hot air ballon for ages now and had it at the top of my bucket list. My husband and I planned a trip to Scottsdale and I immediatley said I wanted to try this. I was lucky enough to get a groupon for 4 people ( friends came with us), so half... More
