Woweeeee! My husband surprised me with a hot air balloon ride for my 70th birthday! This was my happiest birthday ever and I got to celebrate it flying high over God's beautiful creation. The sunrise was spectuclar, the mountains magestic, and we even saw a herd of Javelina. My husband is a commercial pilot and was impressed with our pilot's skill and knowledge while flying our balloon. We felt very safe with Mike. He kept us informed of the landmarks and pointed out wildlife along the way. Becky was charming and made us feel welcome from the very start. She took care of every detail including taking photos of our ride from the ground. The crew also made our experience special. They all participated in my birthday celebration with a Mimosa toast, and a tasty brunch, which even included a birthday cake. My husband's birthday is coming up and there is no way I can top this. I wonder if it would be okay to reciprocate by giving him the same gift.....That way I could have another hot air balloon ride.....Yipee. I loved it and would recommend this company to my friends or anyone who wants an amazing experience! Lilly and Rick read more

I carefully researched balloon rides in the Tucson area looking for an experienced company with an excellent safety record before choosing Fleur de Tucson. My flight exceeded my expectations. My balloon adventure began with a pre-dawn arrival at a private launch site nestled in the Tucson Mountains. After helping with the balloon set-up and inflation (part of the fun!), my 3 fellow passengers and I were ready for our sunrise launch. Our balloon rose smoothly into the sky in the capable hands of our pilot Mike. We floated peacefully above the Tucson Mountains and the Saguaro National Park, enjoying the magnificent scenery, and even spotted a herd of deer. After the flight was over we were treated to a delightful brunch featuring mimosas, homemade muffins and other goodies. Becky gave us a memory card with 30 photos taken of the flight and a certificate commemorating the flight. All in all, my balloon experience was awesome, peaceful, and never to be forgotten. Thanks Mike, Becky, and crew! read more

Mike, Becky, and the crew made this an experience I will cherish forever! There are barely words to describe the feeling of how much I enjoyed this balloon ride. This was the first time for me, so I was very excited, and just a bit nervous. Becky explained everything while the crew inflated the balloon. From the minute we took off I felt nothing but pure joy! The view of the sunrise, the desert, the mountains, the animals; it was all spectacular! It is obvious that this is not a "job" for Mike and Becky, this is a passion. Their attention to detail, and their desire to make this experience special for us was obvious. From start to finish this balloon ride exceeded my expectations. It combined the serenity, quiet, and calm of floating with the wind; a unique view of the beauty of nature, and truly capable and warm hearted hosts! read more

One of life's highlights and the best way to see how wonderful the country surrounding Tucson looks. The ride starts at dawn and the balloon drifts over the desert, expertly guided by Mike the pilot, who points out landmarks and wildlife below. Mike inspires total confidence and at least on my ride, the balloon was incredibly steady, quiet and controlled. The basket only holds four or five people and this makes for a much more intimate experience than a larger basket would provide. Mike and Becky and the crew all really connected with the passengers with their warm personalities and interesting stories. I congratulated Becky at the end for the very professional job she has done. The champagne buffet after the flight and the camera card we received holding pictures she had taken of our trip are both inspired. read more

Hi Mike and Becky, I wish for you both to know what an enormous experience we enjoyed today with such warm and friendly folk - crew included. Actually, we considered it more of an adventure than an experience and I was taken back as a career aviator that you folks are so professional and accommodating yet so down-to-earth (an essential for any thing that flies), you have no room for improvement. In a word, our flight was superb and I was most grateful for the little bit of "stick" time you so graciously afforded. Today's flight redefined my opening mantra to my USAF students - to make the houses smaller............pull back gently; to make the houses...............OK, you get it! I sure hope our paths but not flight plans cross again! Warm regards, Tom read more

We celebrated a friend's birthday with a hot air balloon ride. Mike, Becky and thier team made it a very special occasion. The sunrise ride was both peaceful and exhilrating. Mike pointed out nuances of the Arizona desert and mountains while Becky and the crew chased us from below, talking photos all the way. After landing, they hosted us to a lovely breakfast and birthday celebration, complete with mimosas and the most AMAZING cinnamon muffins - homemade by Becky. By the time we parted company, I felt that I had made some new friends. Thier warm, and obvious joy for hot air ballooning made us all feel like family. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Started just west of I-10, floated over the mountains, over Picture Rocks Road, over the Avra Valley Airport and landed shortly after. I've been on a Balloon ride starting in the East side of Tucson, but this route was WAY better. It's hard to put into words how beautiful the view was going over those mountains at sunrise - absolutely stunning. Out pilot Mike and his wife Becky are the best. She was in a chase vehicle and went out of her way, literally, to take a bunch of pictures of us up in the air. Mimosa's and brunch afterwards, they did an amazing job to make the entire morning complete, all the details were perfect! read more

Fleur de Tucson Balloon Tour was absolutely AMAZING! Mike and Becky are the best hosts I've ever encountered in all my travels. They make you feel at ease and explain everything to you right down to the champagne celebration at the end! Such a personable and fun couple that combine their talents for an outstanding guest experience. Sunrise was awesome, the pleasure of floating over the mountains cannot be replicated by any other means of transportation. I highly recommend you take advantage of Fleur de Tucson's professional and fun experience. I will be back! read more
