What a wonderful adventure!! We got to stand INSIDE this humongous balloon while it was being filled. It is the largest balloon in the USA and there are no others as large. There were 20 people on this ride and it was very comfortable. I have a fear of heights and thought this would take all my courage to do. But oddly enough, there was no fear at all it is so quiet and peaceful gliding along in the sky.... No fear. There was a cute champagne ceremony afterward and a breakfast. The crew were amazing. Prompt, courteous, made it interesting and very enjoyable. I highly recommend this company.
