Magical Sunrise Balloon Ride Over Colorado Springs - Absolutely incredible! The sunrise hot air balloon flight over Colorado Springs was a dream come true. Soaring over landmarks like Pikes Peak and the Garden of the Gods at dawn was breathtaking. The pilot was knowledgeable and ensured a safe, memorable experience. A must-do for stunning views and serene moments in the sky. Five stars!

AMAZING! - This was such an amazing experience to watch from beginning to end the setup and break down of the ballon. To be 14,000 feet up in the sky was breathtaking and the views was beautiful.

Hot Balloon Experience - If though the wind was nonexistent-the balloon pilot-Greg did his very best to hover so high in the sky. Clear view of the Garden of the Gods, Pikes Peak and Colorado Springs. This was our first time experiencing a hot air balloon ride-it won’t be our last. This company was professional and very personable The champagne toast and muffins were a nice touch after the ride.

Taking flight in Colorado! - I waited a long time but finally was able to make it off the ground today. It was a beautiful morning in Colorado Springs. We took flight on a hot air balloon to glide over the pastures, hills, and the breathtaking sights of all our surrounding mountains. Pike Peak front and center! The history and champagne toast after landing,, were super special touch. I would highly recommend Adventures Out West and cannot wait till I can go back up again!! The Aeronut Certificate was a nice momento, along with the stickers. I am so glad I got to be a part of your 50th Anniversary year!!! You guys are amazing!!! Thank you!

Amazing Day! - Amazing day! Crew was absolutely wonderful. Perfect first experience with ballooning. Got to experience the set up and takedown and the flight was so relaxing, never once was there uncomfortable moments in the air. We stayed warm during the morning chill of October on the ground and once in the air the heat from the balloon was more than enough to stay comfortable. Would recommend to anyone that climb into the basket.
