PICKUP POINTThe sunset hot air balloon rides are the best way to see what Santa Barbara County has to offer.
It is a perfect activity to try for sightseeing, romance, or relaxation. Soar to new heights as the sunset kisses the Santa Ynez Valley. This area of Santa Barbara has a perfect ballooning climate all year-round. Soak in the views of the picturesque vineyards against the majestic San Rafael mountain range. It is truly a nature lover’s dream, as you can spot wild boar, foxes, deer, and more. As we float over wine country, a pilot/tour guide will show you the many ranches in the luscious valley, including Michael Jackson’s famous “Neverland Ranch.”
Come and experience hot air ballooning with us in this picturesque region!

To be honest I was a bit afraid of flying although have always admired colorful balloons in the air. I am so happy I have finally decided to do it during our trip to the USA! We’ve done tours in all the cities we visited with this company: the guides and the experts who helped with planning the whole itinerary were just amazing. So, I relied on their recommendation to do the Sunset Balloon Ride near Santa Barbara. The pilot was professional yet so personable that you forget you are so high up and it just was a smooth and comfortable feeling. We ended up having one of the best experiences of our lives.

An unforgettable day. I am not typically the adventurer type but wanted to do something different. This tour didn’t disappoint! It truly was a once in a lifetime experience!

Hot air ballooning was definitely on our bucket list, but there was a hesitation towards safety. I can honestly say that Connor and his crew made us feel safer than I could have imagined. His confidence mixed with caution and humor was unbeatable! We highly recommend this flight.
