Rising gently into the sky in your Phoenix hot air balloon ride, your view of the Arizona desert expands as the land shrinks away. A 360-degree view is a great opportunity for photographs. Flying close to the ground, you can see the sights and sounds of desert life.
You may see jackrabbits, quail, roadrunners and coyotes, or even deer, javelina and other desert animals. The pilot will point out exotic desert plant life and may descend to within inches of trees and cacti for a closer view. It’s an amazing ride! At the conclusion of your flight, enjoy a traditional Champagne toast and delicious gourmet treats from one of the Valley’s top restaurants.
