Start your day floating high above the stunning Sonoran Desert on this shared morning hot air balloon flight over Phoenix, Arizona. With clear skies nearly year-round and breathtaking desert landscapes stretching as far as the eye can see, this early-morning flight is the perfect way to take in the unique beauty of the region.
Drift quietly 2,000 to 5,000 feet in the air as the desert comes alive beneath you. From iconic sights like Camelback Mountain and Downtown Phoenix to the chance sightings of native wildlife like coyotes and jackrabbits, this experience offers both serenity and wonder. After landing, enjoy a post-flight celebration complete with light refreshments, a traditional ballooning toast, and a commemorative flight certificate to take home.
Pre-Flight & Check-In
Arrive bright and early to meet your crew and fellow passengers. Your pilots will provide a safety briefing and walk you through what to expect during the flight.
Inflation & Take-Off
Watch as the massive balloon takes shape during the inflation process — a spectacle in itself. Once ready, you’ll climb aboard and gently ascend into the peaceful morning sky.
Flight Experience
Soar peacefully over the desert, taking in sweeping views of Phoenix, Camelback Mountain, Lake Pleasant, State Farm Stadium, and beyond. Your experienced pilot will share insights about the area’s geography, history, and wildlife throughout the journey.
Landing & Celebration
Upon landing, you’ll be greeted with a traditional post-flight toast and light breakfast. You’ll also receive a commemorative flight certificate to mark the occasion.
This experience flys in the morning and the late afternoon with exclusive views of the Eastern Shore and Chesapeake bay of Maryland that only a hot air balloon provides, all year round.

Please arrive 30 minutes before your scheduled departure time. Flights are scheduled just after sunrise for optimal flying conditions and the most beautiful light.
