Overview

Imagine you are floating serenely above the most beautiful place on earth, the Wine Country. Your Nature Walk in the Sky will begin just after dawn. As you sail gently along the wind's highway, spectacular views will delight you. Among the surprises: the Pacific Coast, San Francisco's Skyline, Redwood Forests, Geyser Mountains, the graceful Russian River and lush rolling vineyards. As your gentle giant dances it's way back to earth, celebrate your high spirited adventure with our Scrumptious Champagne Brunch, served in a quaint cafe or a beautiful winery setting.

What Does it Feel Like?
Hot Air Balloons
are unique from all other forms of flight in that there is no sensation of motion or perception of height. Traveling at heights of 500 to 1500 feet, the feeling is one of peace and tranquility as the earth seems to slowly descend and rotate below you. Within moments after lifting off you become at ease while you effortlessly drift over the treetops and float over the Wine Country in gentle, panoramic harmony with nature.

Location: Sonoma CA
Schedule: 7 days (closed Christmas)
            

Itinerary

Our signature balloon design - Crush©2003 Above the Wine Country Ballooning
Safe Personalized Service:

You are welcome to participate "hands on" with the set-up, inflation and deflation of your hot air balloon. Our uniformed pilots, all FAA certified instructors, are the most qualified professionals in this region, averaging 25 years experience. Our fleet of Cameron Balloons is the newest and safest luxury aircraft available in the world today, featuring secure, high sided, separated compartments designed to comfortably hold no more than 2 to 5 passengers. These state of the art gondolas offer added stability and excellent unobstructed views.

Private parties can also be accommodated in our balloons, which are designed to carry a total of 2, 4-5, 8-10 or 16 passengers

What's Included: The whole experience takes at least 3 to 4 hours with approximately 1 to 1.5 hours of actual flight time. We'll meet at a quaint cafe that's easy to find, located just one hour north of San Francisco, off Hwy. 101. After the flight, we'll return to our gourmet cafe for a champagne brunch. We can also provide a champagne picnic brunch in a beautiful winery setting such as Trentadue or Fetzer Wineries but our favorite location is the Kendall Jackson Wine Center. Brunch location depends on weather and time of year.
