Soaring Adventures of America

Soar above the trees and below the clouds in a beautiful hot air balloon.

The pilot and crew will bring you to the launch site where they will unpack the balloon and then invite you to help in the inflation process. Climb in and you’re off! The balloon will gently ascend and float between 500 and 1,000 feet. During the hour-long (approximate) ride you will cover five to ten miles — traveling wherever the wind blows you! Upon landing, you will celebrate with a champagne toast, an old European tradition (soft drinks also available). The complete experience takes about three hours. This is an adventure of a lifetime.

This package entitles two people to a hot air balloon ride from any of the 150 Soaring Adventures of America locations found coast-to-coast. Valid one year from event date.

Note: Hot air ballooning is subject to weather conditions. If your scheduled flight is canceled, every effort will be made to reschedule it in a timely way. However, if you are on vacation, there is no guarantee made or implied that space will be available to allow for rescheduled flights during your vacation. If your flight is canceled and cannot be rescheduled, you can use the certificate at another time at any Soaring Adventures of America location.
