Outstanding service and experience. All included: Pick-up wherever you are staying, boat drive with coffee, commuting and a lovely 40-45 mins flight in the balloon. They also take you back to wherever you want, not necessarily your hotel/cruise. All worked perfect and on time. And at an unmatched pirce. Highly recommend!
Ride was just as good as the one offered by ship and we save $$$. Great pilot who told us what we were flying over. We had a smooth soft landing . Amazed at how many crew members are involved.
