My first balloon ride could not been more perfect. My pilot, Dan, was punctual, personable, experienced and knowledgeable of the valley that we flew over. It was amazing how easily he set the balloon down and how quickly he and his chase man were able to gather the balloon and get us to our mimosa breakfast of strawberries and pastry.... More

We considered this our favorite adventure of our vacation in Sedona which sadly came to an end today. We went out with Northern Light Balloons yesterday morning and had a most wonderuful time. This experience was everything and more than we expected. Peaceful, fun, and unique experience. Pilots were experienced and knew I felt safe the entire trip. All of... More

My spouse and I enjoyed a sublime and truly wonderful sunrise flight just outside of Sedona, Arizona with Northern Light Balloon Expeditions on March 15, 2013. The entire operation (booking, passenger pickup, ground crews, balloon assembly, safety checks, passenger briefings, post-flight celebration, and of course, the flight itself) was thoroughly professional, in addition to being an enormous amount of fun....

First. They go nowhere near the red rocks of Sedona. Don't expect it. Don't believe their brochures or pictures. The pictures are 23 years old when the government used to allow it. Second. Boring guide. Really boring. Third. We spent half of the hour and 20 minute flght less than 100 feet above the ground. We skimmed the road (89a)... More

I've been wanting a balloon ride for.... all my life??? and so decided on this trip we'd do it! It was great.

I'm not sure what I... More

Great service and wonderful experience! Once in a lifetime opportunity for us and well worth it too!

Our original scheduled balloon trip was canceled due to windy weather - we were disappointed, on the other hand we really wanted to be safe. Luckily, they were able to get us booked for the following day - which was a great flying day. Pick up time is early - between 530 and 630 - this is standard for the... More

My wife and I took this balloon ride in mid-November this year. There are basically two balloon companies in Sedona. My wife chose this one as the the rep (on the phone) told her "We are the only one that actualy goes over the red rocks. The others go from West Sedona towards Cottonwood." Well, the truth is somewhat different.... More

My wife and I had been talking about a hot air balloon ride as soon as we arrived in Sedona. We found an ad for Northern Light Balloon Expeditions and just did it. What a great experience. They picked us up at our hotel at 5:30 am drove us out to the launch site where we helped with the inflation... More
