We're an independent balloon ride operator flying on Albuquerque's west side. We aren't affiliated with, endorsed by, or operating as part of the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta, and you don't need a Fiesta ticket to fly with us. If you also want to attend the festival, that's booked separately through them.

Sandia Mountains (Pass by)
Soar peacefully above the Rio Grande Valley with an unforgettable view of Albuquerque’s iconic Sandia Mountains stretching across the eastern horizon. From the basket of a hot air balloon, experience the mountains from a completely different perspective as their rugged peaks rise dramatically above the desert landscape. During a sunrise flight, watch the first golden rays of sunlight sweep across the Sandia Mountains, bringing their famous pink and red hues to life. With nothing between you and the open sky, you’ll enjoy unobstructed panoramic views of the mountains, Rio Grande Valley, and surrounding New Mexico landscape. It’s a peaceful, breathtaking way to experience one of Albuquerque’s most recognizable natural landmarks—especially when viewed from above.
