You will arrive at the launch site where hot coffee and snacks await you as you watch in awe as your balloon is inflated and prepared for flight. Next you'll climb aboard with great anticipation as your pilot gives you a briefing and flight instructions. Before you know it, you lift effortlessly into the air and begin your peaceful journey.
You will take in amazing views of the Colorado Rockies as you fly from treetop level up to several thousand feet while traveling 2 to 10 miles. During your flight you will be serenaded with classical music playing in the background as your pilot explains the history of ballooning and points out prominent scenery. After approximately one hour of magical flight it is time to return to the loving arms of Mother Earth. Next, it's time to pack up and return to the launch site for a traditional champagne toast followed by a white linen sit-down breakfast prepared on site featuring bacon, eggs, french toast, hash browns, fresh fruit and pastry. At the conclusion of your once in a lifetime balloon adventure you will be presented with a commemorative champagne glass to cherish for years to come.
