Spectacular Experience/Highly recommended Doug and Doug Jr. were absolutely great. The ride is amazing and serene. Watching the sun come up from 10K feet up is an amazing experience. Also these guys have a combined like sixty years of experience, and the whole thing is a lot safer than you might think, a hot air balloon can withstand a ten foot hole and if they were to lose heat/fire the whole thing just becomes a parachute. read more

Great experience, talented and great host and pilot. The crew were all great and added to the great experience. Ended up with a bunch of fun fellow passengers. Beautiful sunrise. Worth the trip and the nap in the afternoon. read more

This was my first hot air balloon ride and I'd highly recommend Vegas Balloon Rides. Communication was very clear prior to the day of the flight and everything ran on time. Jeff was an amazing pilot and his staff have a great sense of humor keeping things fun. The sunrise was beautiful and the flight so calm and peaceful. I'm not great with heights in general but I didn't have a problem at all and felt safe the entire time. It is absolutely worth the experience! read more

Set my wife up for a sunset balloon experience since I was going to be out of town, so this review is based on her experience. The first date I set her up about a month ago with was cancelled due to highwinds, but we easily reschedule again when I was going to be gone again. Communication and updates are very good, and they provide transportation to the Pahrump NV area when they launch in the early morning which is a real advantage since the departure time is early morning. She had a great time on this tour and said the staff was extremely friendly and the ballon pilot was wonderful. The price is also pretty reasonable compared to other experiences in the Las Vegas area that she has experienced. Overall, she had a great experience and highly recommends Vegas Ballon Rides. read more

We cannot say enough about this experience. Two words: must do. We had great communication leading up to the experience + as promised by the evening before we knew if the flight was a go. We were picked up at our hotel (in hindsight we could have done an Uber but we were content with the convenience). Our flight was a total of 55 minutes and it didn't even matter how cold we were (definitely should have dressed warmer -- April in Vegas, who knew?!) The staff were amazing and the pilot a beautiful passion that shone through. His champagne toast was beautiful! The entire experience was one I'll never forget (and would 100000% do again!) read more

Juan and Jeff are amazing at what they do. I came here to propose to my girlfriend, they gave me a great deal, and a fantastic time. I've been to other balloons in the country and this has by far been the best customer service experience I've had. Thanks guys! Ps: she said yes! read more

We had a great time! The whole team is awesome, funny and helpful! Jeff is the outgoing French balloon operator who kept us entertained and informed during our balloon flight! Wonderful experience and we recommend them highly! read more

Jeff and his crew are professional, hard working and very friendly. Watching them get the balloon ready for flight is an awesome sight. The feeling and "quiet" once air born is so surreal. Jeff is not only very knowledgeable about ballooning but he tells you stories of the migration of the animals in the area. I would highly recommend them. This is a once in a lifetime experience you need to do, even if you are afraid of heights. I felt very safe and secure throughout my whole flight. So so glad I crossed another fun experience off of my bucket list. Vikki D read more

What an amazing experience and a mark off of my bucket list!! Incredibly peaceful & beautiful. The lift/off was my favorite part. Our pilot, Jeff, was so fun & knowledgeable & we had such an amazing, friendly & hard-working crew..driving two vans(with passengers) & two trailers pulling the huge baskets from Vegas an hour west to Pahrump, NV, setting up & inflating two balloons in the dark so we could take off at sunrise. Then taking it all down & packing it all back up! Such a spectacular experience all the way around!! These girls from Tulsa, OK, we're thrilled! Highly recommended!! read more

If you are looking for an outdoor activity or alternative to the strip, consider a flight on a hot air balloon. This was an activity that I booked for my wife's birthday. She was apprehensive at first since she is afraid of heights, but she was in awe from the time we lifted off, and said she didn't even feel like she was up in the air. This was our first flight in a balloon, but will not be the last. Jeff and crew at Vegas Balloon Rides are very safe and professional, and will only launch if the conditions are right. I highly recommend. read more

I love adventure, and this was a first for me. Nothing really scares me, I love the thrill of it. This was an unbelievable experience and so much fun. Yes, you do have to meet at the office at 4am, shoot for getting there around 4:15am since chances are everyone will get there a little later. My friend and I got there way too early like 3:45am and no one was there except JJ who didn't hear us knocking at the door at first. We thought no one was there but he came out surprised to see us there, and thank goodness the boss was on the way at 3:55am. I'm so glad I did this, when you're in Vegas, you meet so many different people. We had a Canadian couple, an Indian family, local bar owners, and us in separate sections in a basket distributed by weight. I learned a lot about hot air ballooning the wind has to blow one direction in order for the ballon to inflate, if the wind continues to change direction multiple times, it will not be a good ride and they will have to cancel. I also recommend booking through their official website and not any third party sites that offer a discount because if the company has to cancel the ride you will not get your money back if you booked with Groupon or Trip Advisor. Lastly, I've never had a company want to interact with their customer's the way this company did. The car ride in the morning felt like we were all going on a family vacation together, haha. Then, after being in the air and landing in the middle of nowhere with a few dirt roads we celebrated with champagne. Sure you have to wait until everything is packed and loaded, but it's only a long wait if you don't interact with other people. I really enjoyed talking to everyone from the crew to our Canadian friends. They gave us the option to go back in different vans, one van would head back to Las Vegas and the other would stop at a pub to keep the party going that was owned by the bar owners in our balloon ride. Our pilot Jeff, bought us one round, then the bar owners another round, and then our Canadian friends another round, yooooo what a vibe man. PS. Amanda, props to you for being part of an all boy crew. I love girls that can hang with the boys. Vegas Baby! read more

I was employed here as crew before I was pregnant with my twins. Great place to work! Everyone had a great vibe. Having wonderful coworkers is so rare that when you find them it's hard not to work your tail off and be thankful for them. And what a great sense of humor between the main crew! I lived in Pahrump so I wasn't there for the drive most times, so I can't really speak to that, honestly. However, all the stories and jokes and such were never in short supply that I saw, so I can't imagine the drive being boring. Even two years later my memories are still all treasured up and colored as happy. I figured it was time to actually write a review. Thank you for reading! read more

I flew all the way to Vegas to ride in a Hot Air Balloon, because it's on my bucket list. A list in which I'm actively playing beat the clock. Jeff, and his flight crew, could absolutely have NOT done a better job at helping me cross this big ticket item off my list this morning. Breathtaking views of the sunrise like you can't see it from anywhere else, all while you hear stories from Jeff and how he learned to fly a balloon. Make sure you ask him, cause it's an incredible tale. Thank you guys so much for the opportunity, a once in a lifetime experience that I'm so glad to have shared with Jeff and his crew!! read more

Everything went well and crew was friendly and fun. Great experience. Would definitely like to do it again.

When we were researching activities in Las Vegas, my friend suggested a sunrise hot air balloon ride. I have a small fear of heights (I get very bad vertigo at really high places or going up clear stairs), so I was kind of scared at first, but wanted to try it. Vegas Balloon Rides is a super highly rated company - and sold deals on Groupon! We brought 2 Groupon deals for the 4 of us. Redemption was super easy and very quick. It was super easy redeeming our passes and then booking a day to fly. You have to call the night before to confirm that the flight is still going on and where to meet. This was super quick and easy - it's just a recording! We arrived at about 5:30am at their office to meet up. There's water and granola bars in the office, so you won't be starving! We all piled into the van to be driven out to the lift-off sight, which was probably a 30 minute drive away. Once the basket was out and the balloon inflated, they taught us how to climb in and how to brace for a rough landing. Everyone was super friendly and very helpful in every way. They definitely helped make the daunting task of lift-off much more fun. Our pilot was hilarious and a great pilot. Lift-off and landing was super smooth and we never felt a single bump. Apparently our flight date (1/15) was their first flight since the first day of the new year, so we were super grateful we managed to get good weather. I have to say, it was well worth getting up early and possibly fearing for my life. It was one of the best experiences I've ever had in my entire life - definitely well worth it! I highly recommend Vegas Balloon Rides! read more

What an awesome experience! Great staff and first rate equipment. Vegas Balloon Rides has a spotless safety record, so no issues there. If you are inclined to go for a balloon flight, here in Las Vegas is where you should do it. The pictures tell the tale: majestic scenery and tranquility that defies articulation. A balloon flight should be on everyone's bucket list. The only downside is If you're a night owl, because the revelry to be at the rally point at zero dark early (5:30 AM) will be difficult, but worth it for sure. Thank you VBR! read more
