My boyfriend surprised me with a hot air balloon ride for my 25th birthday last week.
Kevin and his partner were vibrant hosts and were both very knowledgeable about flying. I thought I would be a little nervous, but the ride was smooth and these guys are obviously pros which put me at ease. Kevin knew the lay of the land well and served as an excellent tour guide. The champagne toast at the end was a perfect treat at the end of our flight.
I would definitely recommend taking a trip with Kevin. The other balloons we saw taking off around us were carrying 8-14 people each, and our little basket held two couples and Kevin. I'm very glad my boyfriend booked with 2 Fly Us because we had a more intimate trip--the other couple on our flight was lovely.
Two notes: Be prepared to wake up early and the flame for the balloon is HOT! I regretted wearing a nice top because I definitely sweated through it. Goes for any hot air balloon flight, but thought it was worth mentioning.
