My boyfriend gave me the balloon ride as my birthday gift, I was very scared and almost gave up last min. But the pilot and his crew were very friendly and they explained everything carefully, so I felt much better and confident that the pilot was a very serious professional. The experience was amazing! I don't do very well in the air and I have always been scared of height, but I was able to enjoy the ride the whole time, I felt safe and the pilot was very patient with me. He answered all my questions promptly and he was a very nice to us the entire time. I would highly recommend this company, they definitely know what they are doing and they care for everyone's safety. Again, it was such a great experience , my boyfriend did such an amazing job choosing a balloon ride as my birthday gift! It was a very romantic and memorable day ! read more

Altitude Endeavors, This is definitely a very experienced and professional company. I have taken a balloon ride with them twice now, once myself and again with my 4 year old son. Phil Clinger, the pilot is very experienced and his crew is amazing as well. They definitely let you know what to expect in such an amazing experience. It is definitely something that everyone should try in their lifetime! Altitude endeavours definitely makes the experience personal to you, my 4 year old son had such a great time and Phil makes you feel so relaxed and safe at all times. This is definitely a great company with a great reputation and I would highly recommend them to anyone. I travelled from Ontario, Canada to take a ride both times! read more

My family and i (six in all) thoroughly enjoyed our balloon ride with Phil as our pilot. He was courteous and fun and kept us safe at all times. The weather was beautiful and clear and at one point could see the downtown skyline of Battle Creek, Kalamazoo and Grand Rapids. My grandchildren especially enjoyed seeing the reaction of the animals below when we passed overhead. The deer ran out of the area and domestic animals got excited in their pens. Even saw three zebras at one farm. Seemed like an animal safari. We highly recommend Hot Air Ballooning, especially with Altitude Endeavors!!!! read more

Altitude Endeavors provided an absolutely outstanding experience for us, from start to finish! Booking was easy, and the ride was incredible! Our ride was in Traverse City and provided stunning views of the lakes and surrounding area and an added perk were the photos that the crew took of us before, during and after the flight! Phil was an excellent pilot and his crew were top notch! The history of the hot air balloon and champagne toast after was a wonderful bonus! We are very pleased with our experience. 5 + stars!!! read more

I surprised my husband with a hot air balloon ride for our first wedding anniversary. We were both first timers, and we both absolutely loved it! Captain Phil was very personable & knowledgeable and his crew was quite friendly. The balloon ride was so serene & peaceful and a great way to be reminded of the beauty nature has to offer. I'd love to go again in the fall or winter and we would definitely book again with Altitude Endeavors! read more

This was a lifelong dream for my Mom and I so there was a lot riding on things going well. We couldn't have been more pleased with our experience! Phil and his crew were incredible and helped make this a truly special experience and a literal dream come true!! We Highly Recommend Altitude Endeavors! :) read more

Very good. What's important -- a perfect landing by a professional! Jake and Dena Prins P.S. We presume most older 85/90 years old folks like us are not interested in this kind of entertainment or there would have been a better way of entering/exiting the basket. It was a good exercise plus the ride. read more

We had family members ranging from 24 to 81 years of age in the basket last Saturday and everyone had a great time. Phil and his team were very professional and made the entire experience awesome for all of us first timers. I would highly recommend AE for a ballooning experience. read more

We hired Phil for a tethered balloon ride at a private event. He got over 80 people up in 2 hours on a fairly windy day. They were safe, professional, and great to work with. So fun to see the city from a new perspective. Thanks for a very memorable event! read more

i finally got to cross a balloon ride off my bucket list and it was a far more fun experience than I imagined! The crew was so much fun. We had a beautiful fall day. We all loved it so much we are ready to do it again but in the winter this time:) read more
