Hi, the FLIGHT was amazing! Great balloon ride, beautiful scenery - I'd give the 45 minute actual ride 5 stars. I REALLY think they should warn you they're going to dump you down in some desert field, keep you captive for 90 minutes in the hot Nevada sun while they clean up the balloon. I'm confused as to why they couldn't run us to our cars? Why did we have to STAND in a field for twice as long as the actual balloon ride? So hot and disappointed by the end that it took away from the actual amazing ride.

We loved our experience flying with Carson City Hot Air Balloons. The entire ride was very smooth and enjoyable. The pilot was excellent and kept us entertained. I will fly with this business again if I get the opportunity. I highly recommend it!
