What to expect
Sonoma Skypark
Your adventure begins in our cozy flight lounge overlooking our most frequent launch site. Savor fresh coffee and snacks as you watch the colorful balloons inflate around you. Once everyone is gathered, your experienced pilots will guide you through a pre-flight safety briefing, after which we'll witness the thrilling final stage of inflation right on the tarmac. As the balloons stand tall, you'll climb aboard and capture a few photos before lifting off into the morning sky. For the next hour, we'll drift along with the winds, utilizing different altitudes to gently steer the balloon towards our landing spot. During this serene journey, soak in the breathtaking views and create lasting memories. Upon landing, the balloon will be deflated, and we'll whisk you back to the airport for a celebratory champagne toast, captivating stories about ballooning history, and tales from your pilots' adventures.
Deemed the "real" wine country, our aerial adventure takes you soaring above Sonoma's sprawling vineyards—far more expansive than Napa's—with the majestic Mayacamas Mountains as your backdrop. From this privileged vantage point south of the range, the iconic San Francisco skyline unfolds before you in an unobstructed panorama. Begin your unforgettable journey in Sonoma, where the heart of wine country beats, and conclude in Napa, creating a truly unparalleled experience.
Carneros Valley
Embark on a unique adventure, soaring above both Napa and Sonoma counties, showcasing the stunning Carneros AVA. Follow the winds as they guide your flight from Sonoma to Napa, offering an ever-changing perspective of this captivating region.
Our flight path into Napa from the west offers a unique advantage, bypassing the urban sprawl that has emerged over the past 15 years of rapid growth. As we soar through the skies, you'll be captivated by the endless expanse of hillside vineyards, a lush tapestry of greenery that showcases the true essence of Napa Valley.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
