Palm Springs.com: Balloon Above The Desert

Greet the sun or bid it farewell as you drift amid the beautiful desert skies in one of the most peaceful experiences of a lifetime. While floating effortlessly in one of our colorful hot air balloons, you will view breathtaking vistas of some of the most picturesque landscapes in California. Vineyards, polo fields, world famous golf courses, and exotic orchards are just a few of the unbelievable sights you will experience. Your flight direction is determined by the breeze. Your pilot will give a guided tour as well as serving champagne and cookies, while you are in the air. During the first few minutes, you will receive a guided tour of the valley. Your picture will be captured during the celebration and attached to your flight certificate before your leave!

Romantic "Sweetheart" Flights:

Sometimes the occasion calls for just the two of you. Regardless if it is an anniversary celebration, a wedding proposal or even an aerial wedding! We have experience with all three and can assist you with planning such a special event. We do have a smaller balloon that is just perfect for those romantic times that you might not wish to share the balloon with other passengers. The cost of this service is slightly higher than our regular ride. Please call or e-mail for rates and availability.

Launch Sites: Launch locations vary due to wind speed, wind direction and time of year. Our flight crews choose which site to use approximately one hour before each flight. We provide free round trip shuttle service from all Palm Springs Valley hotels, resorts and country clubs.
