We offer shared and private sunrise flight options, with both options providing an amazing ride experience in our state of the art balloons, breathtaking views of Oregon’s Willamette Valley, and a post-flight champagne toast. Whether you choose a shared flight or an intimate private flight for 2 or 4 people, you’ll enjoy the same exceptional service and unforgettable experience. As a family owned and operated business since our first flight over 28 years ago, we strive to help you create amazing memories that will last a lifetime. Click here to learn more about the Flight Experience.

At different times of the year, we fly from different locations and offer different amazing flight experiences. We start our season at the Wooden Shoe Farm for their annual Tulip Festival.  We then fly from our home at Aurora Airport from May through July. These flights offer amazing views of the Willamette Valley, our amazing mountains, and the sunrises this time of the year are fantastic. At the end of July we will start flying from the Wooden Shoe Farm for their Summer Flowers show, where there will be 30 acres of Sunflowers and wildflowers (July 24-August 24). We will then conclude our season flying through mid October back at home at Aurora Airport (Think changing colors for fall, amazing clear views, etc). We offer both shared & private flights wherever we fly, and we always fly at sunrise (best weather and most amazing view, it's worth the early morning! ) We hope you'll join us for a flight. 
Shared Sunrise Flights

Our state of the art baskets are compartmentalized to ensure safety and comfort. This option provides a serene yet social atmosphere where you can share the magic of hot air ballooning and stunning views with a small group. Your pilot will point out the amazing features of the Willamette Valley and answer any questions you may have of the area or the process and magic of hot air ballooning.
  • Scenery: Enjoy breathtaking views of the Willamette Valley, including landmarks like Mt. Hood & Mt St. Helens. We fly over amazing hop fields, vineyards, Oregon hazelnuts, forests, and so much more.
