Experience The Beauty of Arizona from a Hot Air Balloon!

Look out and view a desert sunrise with an unobstructed view aboard a hot air balloon. Let the beauty of the rugged Arizona terrain and the majesty of a mid-air float lift your spirits and take your breath away. It’s the best way to experience a Scottsdale sunrise that you’ll never forget!

Hot air balloon rides are actually the oldest man-made flight technology in existence. The first recorded manned flight took place in 1783 in France. Centuries later, hot air balloons still delight and amaze riders today.

There is something magical, even cloud-like about the way they float and roll with the breeze.  Moving gracefully at 5 miles per hour, these peaceful, romantic crafts are the perfect way to experience the glorious Arizona landscape.

In beautiful Scottsdale, balloons fly close to the ground, staying around 400 feet in the air. At this height, you can take in the magnificence of the desert horizon, while spotting native wildlife like jack-rabbits, roadrunners, deer and coyotes.

Upon your return to the ground, many hot air balloon companies provide complimentary breakfast or a champagne toast to celebrate your flight. During your next visit, experience the beauty of the Arizona desert and get carried away on a hot air balloon ride.
