First experience in hot air balloon with great pilot made it easy - It was my first time in hot air balloon as I am afraid of heights. The guide Mateo, made it great as he provided confidence in what he was doing, he explained very well and provided information on how the balloon worked and details about the gases and security. He was also very friendly to all passengers and performed a very smooth landing. I am willing to try again this experience when possible and appreciate Mateo for providing me with a very smooth introduction to my first hot air balloon trip

Memory of a lifetime - This was my bucket list item and when I found out that I can do this in Muscat, I was excited. I booked the Royal Oman Balloon and they arranged for my pick and drop. The experience was phenomenal. Javier was our pilot and It was safe flight. He ensured that all instructions were understood before take off. I thoroughly enjoyed the sunrise views and I take back a memory of a lifetime.

Sunrise in the Air - Sunset on the sands was a truly beautiful experience! After gathering at 5:30am to get started, I was delighted to be greeted at the launch site with refreshments! The coffee was just what I needed to get ready for the ride. Pilot Mateo was knowledgeable and friendly and his anecdotes about flying and helpful information about the area were highlights of the trip. I'll never forget soaring 1500m above those beautiful sands, and I think that as my first ride, the graceful landing will spoil future rides for me. Thank you so much to the company and our pilot!!

Once in a lifetime experience - It's one of those once-in-a-lifetime experiences. It has wonderful views; to see the sunrise and how the sand and landscape light up with the first rays of the sun is breathtaking. Living this experience with your family is spectacular. The pilot who flew with us was Mateo, and of course he knows how to do it: he is nice, friendly, very professional and polite, which made the trip an even more pleasant experience, making the environment feel safe and comfortable for each of the passengers. The whole of this experience is something that you cannot miss and that is special to live.
