Sunset Sonoran Desert Hot Air Balloon Ride from Phoenix
If you want to put your life and wellbeing of your family on the line and pay for it, this is the place to go. The combination of disregarding the simplest safety rules, coupled with aggression and arrogance of the team turns your stomach at the sight of the material. The handling of criticism and failure to provide service makes this company truly unique in Arizona. Welcome to hell! Alternatively take another company in the area of Phoenix. There are professionals too offering safety, pleasure and service for the same price.

Prices are steep, but when you meet the crew and are in the air you forget all about the money spent and begin focusing on the unique memories being made!

Experience of a lifetime!

It was amazing! The crew met us promptly and provided transportation to the launch site. There were several other balloons launching from the same area but our balloon was the largest. There were 12 passengers including the pilot which made it a little crowded in the basket. The pilot seemed very experienced and made us feel safe the entire ride. Our balloon went higher and stayed in the air longer than the other balloons that launched at the same time as ours. I highly recommend this company. It was well worth the price.

Horrible service

Purchasing through Viator was an extremely unpleasant experience. I purchased two tickets for a hot air balloon flight on Valentine’s Day. I received a payment confirmation and even an email of where to meet...but no time frame, other than sunset. After emailing viator(who sent the confirmations) I received no responses, even after calling and leaving messages multiple times. I finally got a hold of the hot air balloon company separately and they said that my tickets were not booked and that Viator was purposely over booking flights, KNOWINGLY. It nearly ruined mine and my girlfriends Valentine’s Day plans but the great people at aeronautics hot air balloons saved the day and squeezed us in to a flight. I would NEVER purchase from Viator again for the lack of customer service and for attempting to scam us out of expensive tickets. I was even told that the hot air balloon company is not renewing their contract with Viator because of their horrible service lack of ethic. The hot air balloon company claimed this happened to 4 other couples that same day...horrible service. 0 stars.

The time was changed and I never received a e mail about the time change. We recommend that you do more than one way or contact the party or ask for a confirmation back that we received the e mail.

Aerogelic Ballooning never changes meet times. Trip advisor misquoted the meet time. So customer chose to use the TripAdvisor meeting time versus the time Aerogelic Ballooning e-mails. Customer is upset because they missed their flight due to Not checking in with the vendor.
