I took my wife, of 12 years, out on a hot air ballon ride today as a surprise. Napa Valley Balloons were amazing. From the minute we were picked up til the second we finished out breakfast we had an amazing time. The crew was friendly and our pilot, Ken, was more than anyone can ask for in a pilot.... More

We had a rare day that required us to take an hour-long ride to fly over the ag area near Davis. We had a wonderful time. Napa Valley Balloons are first and foremost concerned with safety. I'm a safety professional and was always watching for those warning signs of concern, but NVB made us feel safe at all times and... More

Admittedly, I was a little nervous about being up so high. I could not even tell that we were 2000 feet in the air (except if you looked down!!). The ride was so smooth. Bob, our pilot, was wonderful- I felt very safe in his capable hands. I highly recommend Napa Valley Balloons- very professional & friendly.

Wow, what a great experience. I had always wanted to go on a hot air balloon ride, so my wife and I decided to go for it while we were in wine country. You will not be disappointed. You have to get up very early- this is the safest time for balloons to fly, but they give you coffee, juce,... More

What a great experience! With the weather, we were not able to fly over Napa. We headed east to Winters and had a great flight with Gabe. I am sure Napa would have been great, but so was this. The hot air balloon ride exceeded our expectations and is a DEFINITE must-do!

Their pilots have years of experience and hundreds upon hundreds of flights. We flew with Bob who was outstanding, friendly, experienced and a whole lot of fun. We also know Mike, another pilot, who is another... More

I experienced my first ever hot air balloon ride with Napa Valley Balloons and my pilot was Bob Swanson. It was amazing!! I felt very safe the whole time I was in the balloon and even before I loaded the balloon. The company was very conscience of passenger safety which was reassuring. Bob knew exactly what he was doing and... More

I was so afraid to go on this balloon ride, but my husband talked me into it. Let me tell you that it was not scary AT ALL! It was so peaceful and beautiful! Everyone that works for NBC was friendly and knowledgeable. The continental breakfast before and brunch after was fabulous. Book this balloon ride now. You will have... More
