All of it from the preparation of getting the balloon ready for flight and the entire time we were in the air to the landing was incredible.
A beautiful way to see the desert.

Spoiled Anniversary

If you are planning to surprise someone special do not book this. They constantly cancel your reservation, they book other people ahead of you and they’ll have priority over you despite you having waited over a week for them to honor your reservation. They are unapologetic and could care less if you choose to cancel your reservation. I booked this for our 19th year wedding anniversary and a week later we were still waiting for them to honor our reservation. I understand that it’s weather permitting but why continue to book more reservations and prioritize those reservations when you’ve already been waiting.
Response from Host , Mar 2021
We're sorry to hear your anniversary celebration was spoiled due to bad weather. We would love to have flown you and your loved one, as the reason we started this company was to celebrate life's special moments in a unique way and to check off bucket lists. However, we will never compromise safety for fun. As such, especially during our busiest time of year (March/April), we often run into a situation where we are unable to reschedule passengers that were cancelled due to weather because we are unable to find mutual availability. Thus, for ALL guests, we highly recommend having a few backup days, as we feel it is not fair to prioritize one guest's bucket list item or celebration over anothers, just due to luck of the draw with bad weather.

Magical experience that I will never forget! highly recommended! I booked my ride with Rainbow Riders who were professional and friendly and even though I was a solo rider I did not feel alone as I made friends with the other riders. At the end of the ride we celebrated with mimosa's made by the crew.
My Hot Air Balloon Experience

, Jan 2020
At 54 years young I experienced my first hot air balloon ride. The experience was amazing. Our pilot was Jeff Gillem who made this experience extra special with making me feel real comfortable with all the knowledge he shared. Being 5300 ft high in the air I felt like a bird high in the sky. Our group of 17 was have such amazing fun and laughter. We were able to see our creator's beauty all around. Don't think twice about taking a hot air balloon ride. JUST DO IT!! It's an experience you will never forget. Once the ride was over we were provided with champagne and recited the Irish Balloonist Prayer. Just loved it all!
Hot Air Balloon Ride with Patrick

Excellent experience. Patrick could not have been more knowledgeable, professional and accommodating. Would highly recommend this company. We had numerous balloons take off at the same time and was great experience with 8-10 balloons in the air at the same time. Could not have asked for a better adventure. Loved it!!!!

This was our second hot air balloon...

This was our second hot air balloon ride with Rainbow Ryders. The pilot Patrick and crew were friendly, knowledgeable, humorous and very proficient. The trip over the desert approaching sunset was beautiful. Counted 7 jack rabbits and saw a coyote jump over a stream. Patrick kept the passengers informed of sights, answered questions, had all of us laughing and made sure any concerns we may have had were alleviated. At the end of the flight we were treated to mimosas, cheeses, fruit and sausages and the opportunity to share our experience. We highly recommend this excursion.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
