Hot air balloon rides?

Question

How or where can I find good deals/prices for hot air balloon rides? I live in Colorado (specifically in Colorado Springs) and want to surprise my mom for Mother's Day with a hot air balloon ride.

It will be a family event of 4 so it would be nice to save a little money!! ;)

Answer 1

There are hot air balloon ride in San Diego, (Del Mar).. you might want to look into the prices there, and then this way you have an idea of how much the cost would be, and maybe they can refer you to someone closer to you? This site has the info for the ride. Enjoy.

The one company located in Colorado Springs is Adventures Out West.  They have a one hour basic flight at

$ 185.00 persom, and a 3-4 hour flight at $ 225.00.

Mother's Day is early in the ballooning season, so I'd call first.

Make sure to ask about taxes, fees and any fuel charges.

Check out these companies operating outside of Colorado Springs:
