Jeff was the best

I am DEADLY afraid of heights, but the hot air balloon trip was so easy I had no issue. The crew was amazing $ our pilot, Jeff, was the absolute best. He had a great sense of humor and was very informative on the scenery.

Amazing balloon ride over Sonoma!

The balloon experience was amazing! We had so much fun with everyone. The crew is fantastic, energetic, and fun. Our ride was beyond enjoyable and made a lasting impression. I would recommend this as a must do activity!

The BEST time

We flew with Jeff and Jose and had a great time! We were in the air for over an hour and were greeted with a local brut when we got back to the starting point. It was incredible! My husband is afraid of heights but really enjoyed this tour! They were more than willing to take tons of pictures for us as well! Would highly recommend!

A great way to start the morning

This was an amazing experience. Chad made this early morning worth it. We got up close to the vineyards, great views at 1k feet, and landed seamlessly with no brave needed. Definitely fly with Sonoma Ballooning!

Grateful

Flew comfortably with Pilot Jeff’s humor over my home town’s valley, never having known the ground looks like green velvet from the heavens.

Must do in Napa

Amazing experience! Must do! Mateo our pilot was great too 💜 from check in to champagne toast absolutely perfect

Gliding high above

Awesome experience. From the friendly ground crew to the pilot of the balloon. Everyone was just AWESOME!! No fears at all just a tranquil ride gliding high above the trees.

For sure book it!

Fantastic experience! I would recommend this to anyone. Chad was a great pilot! I was a little nervous to go but it was so peaceful. Possibly one of the best things I’ve ever experienced. 10/10 recommend.

Worth it!

The balloon ride was exceptional – great views, perfect weather and soft landing! But it was the crew who really made the difference. Fun and funny and running commentary.
