Just had a fantastic hot air balloon ride this morning. Tom, was pleasant and even more important he knew what he was doing. Very professional. We had our four granddaughters with us ages 11-9 and he kept them involved from the beginning to end. It was their first experience ballooning and they loved it. Rob was a terrific assistant. Highly recommend Painted horizons..

Can't recommend this company enough - Tom and his staff were amazing! They took such great care of us, kept safety as the number one priority, were extremely friendly and helped us have such a memorable ride. It's clear they care about their customers. Tom showed off his skills by executing a flawless landing in a small strip of grass - impressive! Views were incredible and I learned a good deal about ballooning. Great touch at the end with a champagne toast with snacks. Thank you, Tom and team for an unforgettable experience.

My 10 y old daughter and I had our first Hot Air Balloon ride with Tom and it has been a truly wonderful experience ! Just the two of us and Tom, no big groups, which was really great !
We were invited to help building up the balloon which was also a very nice thing to do. Tom and his friend Steve were clearly very experienced and after a short pre-flight briefing we were flying in the air. Tom was our pilot and Steve 'followed' us on the road and drove the van to where we landed.
We have felt very safe from start till the end, Tom's 25+ years experience clearly showed.
We also enjoyed an early morning picknick after the flight.
A truly wonderful memory, I would definitely recommend Painted Horizons Hot Air Balloon Tours !

I surprised my wife with a private flight on our anniversary. I know they can’t control the weather but it was a beautiful day for the flight. They are a well organized company with great equipment. Everything seemed professional and our pilot Matt Hunter did a great job making it such a great experience. Highly recommend them for anyone looking to add a little adventure to their trip. Thanks to everyone for making it such a memorable trip.

My wife and I were lucky enough to share our wedding with Captain Tom and Robyn. After determining it was too dark before lift off to have a decent photo op for our wedding, we invited Robyn on board and tied the knot over Celebration with a beautiful sunrise in the background. The intimate experience of the crew of Painted Horizons by far exceeds other air balloon rides I have taken in the area. They were truly heartfelt people with a passion for what they do and it truly showed. Thank you!

We had our vow exchange in the air, with our children by our side. How perfect, intimate, and an adventurous way to start our lives as husband and wife. Our pilot Tom Green was very friendly, we had a smooth ride and a safe landing.

I flew with Tom recently and it was a wonderful experience. This was actually my second balloon ride, I flew once before several years earlier with a different company. This experience was wonderful, it was so beautiful and peaceful up there, and Tom gave us lots of interesting information about ballooning, patiently answering everyone's questions. After the flight we had a champagne toast and snacks (and got to keep the souvenir champagne glasses!) My husband and son went with me but didn't fly, and were allowed to go along in the chase vehicle. I really loved it, and would not hesitate to do it again. An experience like this should be more than once (or twice!) in a lifetime!

Excellent interactive experience. Purchased a private ride for our 52nd wedding anniversary. Tom, the pilot and owner made sure we were comfortable during the whole experience.

I had always wanted to ride on a hot air balloon, but was scared of heights. Read the reviews and decided to give it a try and I don't regret it. The crew was really nice and the ride was very smooth. It was amazing!!! Loved every minute of it. One more thing checked off my bucket list.

Are you guys open now? I would like to possibly buy a flight for 4 adults. How much wouldthat cost? What is the best time of year to help ensure flight because we live in Cape Coral, FL. & can't make too many trips up to make this happen due to weather.
Thank you in advance for any information.

How many can ride in a balloon at one time, would you be able to take 6 adults and 1 8 yr old all in the same basket?

We can fly up to 6 in one balloon. We try not to have more than 4 in each balloon. We could use 2 balloons for your party. You would also be able to take photos of each other that way.

We offer private and non-private flights. Private flights are $495 per couple. Non-private flights are $185 per person so that would be $370 per couple.
