The views were beautiful, and everything felt well-paced from start to finish. The whole experience lasted about 2.5 hours and included 7 zip lines, which was such a fun adventure. The location can be a bit tricky to find, so I'd recommend giving yourself extra time and arriving at least 30 minutes before your scheduled tour, as they suggest.

I can't 100% remember our tour guide names but I believe it was Aiden and Yivek (and I probably spelt those wrong). They were so funny and so knowledgeable.

Going up in a hot air balloon has been on my bucket list since I was a child. I've had the…read moreopportunity to travel all over the world and still never had the chance. I grew up watching the balloons soar over my house every morning; therefore, I may have had a bit of a high expectation for this adventure. We arrived to a coffee shop in Calistoga around 6am where we met our pilot, Shane Robinson. We then picked up another couple and headed to the Santa Rosa Airport to begin our balloon adventure. At the airport, we had the opportunity to see another balloon be filled and take off right before ours which was awesome since as we were in the sky that balloon was always in our horizon. (Pictures attached). Shane was extremely knowledgeable, charismatic, and overall made the experience one to last a lifetime. I feel extremely fortunate that I trusted my first experience with Calistoga Balloons and even more specifically with Shane himself. I would recommend this experience to any and everyone. I will be honest I was a bit hesitant due to the price but in comparison, it was $30 less expensive in comparison and they didn't try to over squish us into the basket/ oversell the tour. Cheaper isn't always better especially when it comes to your life! IN THE END, 1000000000% recommend P.S. Remember safety is first and if they cancel for the weather to just trust them because they are the experts! Your life isn't worth the gamble.

Weather was perfect, I was expecting a windy rocky ride up there but you literally just glide with the wind all while having a panoramic view of Calistoga. Now I saw several more hot air balloons floating over the Napa area which seemed more popular, not sure if the views may be more better on that side since this is my first ride but it is worth checking out. After the ride brunch is included. We were taken to SolBar for brunch with a preset menu. I was so impressed. When they mentioned we'd have food after the ride I was thinking coffee and pastries but this was a full on sit down brunch. I would definitely do this again.

Russian River Railbikes is part of the Golden Gate Railroad Museum, a non-profit organization whose purpose is to maintain, restore and run historically significant railroad equipment from the San Francisco Bay area. The guides are all volunteers from the Golden Gate Railroad Museum. The guides were friendly, helpful, and informative. You will get somewhat of a workout, although this is not strenuous. This is an activity that you can really do at any age and they are kid friendly. One of the guides stated that they have had someone in a car seat before (they have seat belts on them similar to a car) and a couple in their 80's has gone multiple times and they arrange ahead of time to have two guides on the railbike to help with pedaling. This truly is a great adventure for all ages! It's about 1 1/2 or two hours total and you will pass by a vineyard and farm. You will also go through a tunnel and stop half way where you will get out and stretch your legs. You can relax at a shaded table, dip your toes in the Russian River, or view a collapsed tunnel at this half way point. You will also have the option when you book this to purchase lunch ahead of time that you can enjoy at the half way point if you would like. It's recommended that you wear comfortable clothes, wear sunscreen, and bring any water and snacks with you on the railbike. We each brought a water bottle that came in very handy. You will have plenty of time afterwards to explore Cloverdale. An all around great experience that I highly recommend!

We stayed in touch over the next several weeks before settling on an August date. We braved the high temps and winding roads to arrive at the ranch.

We learned a lot about the alpaca life cycle, fed the boys, and my daughter got to hold and carry a cria. We bought two cute alpaca shaped soaps. I didn't experience any of the negativity others have complained about. It is a working ranch so it's not a petting zoo or a tourist attraction. Go with the flow and you'll have a great experience.

I ended up calling them the day prior to make sure what our pickup time was. She told me they don't usually call until the afternoon of the day prior. They picked us up from our hotel and brought us to the meeting location at 6am. Coffee, water, tea, muffins, and granola bars were available. The muffins were very tasty. There was very minimum communication. They never said what time we would be leaving. They gave us a bathroom reminder and then a long wait and then suddenly it was time to go. They fit a lot of people in a small waiting area. Which is outside btw. The staff was nice however, the person calling names for groups said our last name so wrong we didn't even know it was us and she was so quiet you could barely hear her. If you're in a later group, you will have a long day. We were in group one and got back to our hotel by 9am and other balloons hadn't even landed yet. Our driver, Bailey, was so sweet and nice. Our pilot was Chad, and you better hope you get him. He was informative, funny, nice, communicated well and considerate. Once we went to the launch site, it was a 20-30 mins wait for the balloon to be ready. We were in the air for about a half hour. We landed and then the vans came to get us, brought us back to the meeting location, and the our hotel. We had a good experience. Plan your day accordingly as you might not get back to your hotel until 930-1030.
