The Best of times! :)
My team and I had a spectacular flight with Damien Mahony. It was definitely a bucket list event of a lifetime. He was so knowledgable and calm and funny. The Black Hills terrain was just amazing from the birds eye view! And the balloon history story and mimosa toast after the flight was the perfect ending. The best of times!!

Sunrise Hot Air Balloon Flight over the Temecula Wine Country
adA7171FU, Sep 2026
Very professionally run outfitter
Grape Escape was a very squared away outfitter. They were on time and very efficient with the process. We met at the Bolero / Europa winery, which is a quaint location that was easy to locate and access. Then we were driven in a comfortable van to the boarding area about a 5-minute drive away.The balloon ride was lovely! And Bill was a fantastic pilot. The landing was most impressive as he was able to land the basket right onto the trailer! We were shuttled back to the winery for a brief champagne toast.Unfortunately, the winery no longer serves breakfast, so we were a bit disappointed, but that is no reflection on Grape Escape.Although requests for tips were made, it wasn’t uncomfortable or over the top as with some other outfitters. Our tipping culture in America is so bonkers.

The entire experience was well organized and executed by the entire Arizona Balloon Safari team. Pick up at the meeting point was straightforward, the time in the air was phenomenal thanks to Scott the extremely experienced pilot who took us up a whooping 7,500 feet, to the smooth landing and mimosa toast and breakfast snacks to conclude the adventure. It was an overall fantastic outing that my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed!

Awesome even if you think you’re afraid of heights. Unbelievably quiet up at 8000 ft until he turns on the jets. Smooth sailing and landing. Excellent experience from pickup to drop site. First time on a hot air balloon and my wife and I would give it a lifetime bucket experience #10!!!!!!

Fantastic Experience
Fantastic experience and that’s saying a lot for a person who is afraid of heights. 😃 We were lucky enough to ride with Justin, co-owner of Elevated New Mexico. The entire experience was very well coordinated. They were communicative leading up to our ride. They let us know what to expect all the way up to take off. They sent text messages the night before to ensure we knew about weather updates that may occur and were just the best.The flight itself was amazing. I am afraid of heights. Justin put me at ease with his attention to detail and his methodical approach to the flight. He is personable as well. The ground crew, which included his wife Keisha, were well choreographed and a pleasure.
