We found Tom's air balloon company online. We called him Friday morning and pleaded with him to schedule us on such short notice. He was extremely nice about the last minute scheduling and accommodated us, he booked us for a balloon ride on Saturday morning based on weather conditions. We had a BLAST!! This was such an amazing experience and Tom's funny personality made it even more enjoyable! Although my family and I were a little nervous at first, Tom showed us that he took all safety measures and precautions which made us feel better. His jokes also helped ease our nerves lol. It was 6 of us plus Tom as the pilot so seven of us in total. The balloon was a little cramped up in air but we all fit with a little wiggle room. Upon request, Tom even allowed us to bring mimosas for a toast while up in the air as long as we brought plastic cups. The experience was amazoning, once in a lifetime! Beautiful views, perfect weather, and SO PEACEFUL! From up above we got to see farmlands, wild deers running, horses, cattle, Delaware river and so much more! Tom did not have many reviews when we looked him up online but he's been doing this for 30+ years. I guess most of his business is through word of mouth. I would highly recommend him if you are considering going in a hot air balloon! Fantastic experience!

We went up about 1,500 feet and the views were just beyond us. It was the best 50th birthday for my mom we had. I cannot express how much fun we had... it was breath taking views and such AN AMAZINGGGGGGG TIME. We also had mimosas to spend this awesome experience. THANK YOU SO MUCH TOM. Prices were the best, and most reasonable. Definitely doing this again.

When Kevin found out that we were renting a car to get there he told us he'd make a decision by a certain time so we wouldn't have to rent a car if the weather wasn't good. Fortunately the weather was good and we headed out. When we got there we were told that a certain wind pattern had popped up unanticipated and us and a couple of other balloons waited. I really appreciated the attention to safety. You could really see that Kevin, his crew and the other ballooners were all very careful about the weather. The experience of ballooning was absolutely fantastic. It was magical. The feeling of safety and serenity in the basket is not something that can be put into words. I so so appreciated Kevin and his team's friendly and excited attitudes. They were taking pictures of us and put us in perfect positions for the pictures. I had no idea of the amazing service we would get. It really made our flight that much more amazing. I can't recommend this experience and especially Kevin and his team enough. It was truly amazing.

I can't wait to do this again.

Mike is the proud owner, with 40 years of experience that show in every aspect of the ride. He takes the time to ask everybody their name, what their do for a living, etc. and then addresses you by name from then on, making it for a very warm welcoming feeling. He explains everything and has more anecdotes than you can possibly fit during the ride. We went in mid Fall and the colors were absolutely breathtaking! No pictures could possibly do it justice. Mike explains the sights and gives you background information on just about anything. His crew is also highly skilled, making it fascinating to watch them in action.

Saw this on my Facebook feed and had to buy tickets to it. I wasn't able to make the Sat morning…read moreaccession because I was out late on Friday but it worked out as balloons did not ascend that morning. We came for Sunday morning and had to wake up bright and early to make the drive down. The event is super well organized with many signs and people pointing to the parking lot. Be prepared with cash for the $10 parking. Yup people charging for parking in the middle of a field in NJ. Wish they would just add the price of parking to the ticket price. Also they are very strict about bottles of water and made us throw out our bottles even though barely any vendors are open for the morning accession. I had to rate it a 4 stars because of how much fun I had and I think if you don't get a chance to see the balloons ascend, it's pretty much a bust - so gambling on the weather for the weekend. Fortunately weather worked out for me - look at all the balloons. Love that they played music while balloons are inflating and when they are released - for example they played the Tasmanian devil soundtrack when it took off. There was barely a breeze on the ground but the winds higher up must have been wild because the balloons did not even hang around and quickly went out of view. Therefore I wasn't able to get the shot of probably like 40 plus balloons in the sky. Right after the balloons took off, they had a 5K and the human cannonball was the starting gong! Very exciting start to the race. We then went for a tethered ride which was 25 bucks for 2 minutes in the air and total 5 minutes (getting in and out and going up). Worth it to float above ground and get a sense of you feel comfortable in a balloon basket before spring for 200 per person for a real balloon ride. We didn't hang around for the rest of the day but your ticket allows you to re enter so if you did live nearby you could probably come back during the evening for the afternoon accession. Tips: - check the weather forecast before buying tickets (the organizers cannot control the weather and they need perfect weather for balloons to go up) - bring lots of cash - be open minded and have loads of fun.
