Reservations  are required and should be placed as early as possible to ensure a specific date; however, short notice reservations are usually available, especially for week days. To make your reservation, please click the button below or call (520) 235-5355. After you have booked your flight online, you may receive a  call from Tucson Balloon Rides if adjustments must be made to your requested flight date based on the total weight of the passenger load.  You will be charged at the time of booking the flight, however, if your flight is cancelled due to weather, your full payment will be refunded.

Since ballooning depends on favorable weather, we cannot guarantee that a flight will take place on a specific date.  Safety is our primary concern.  Normal flights cancelled by Tucson Balloon Rides will be fully refunded if they cannot be rescheduled. Corporate events may have a non-refundable deposit due to additional expenses that may be incurred.  Every effort will be made to reschedule your flight.

Waiver:  Each guest must sign a waiver to verify that they have no health concerns that would prohibit them from ballooning. 

Weight Restrictions: Passengers must weigh less than 300 lbs and be able to climb in and out of the basket (equivalent to swinging a leg over a horse.) 

Gratuity: Tipping is common in the adventure/travel/tour industry. Tipping is not obligatory but very much appreciated by pilot and crew.

Cancellation Policy:  You must cancel at least 72 hours prior to your scheduled balloon flight for a full refund of your flight. Flights cancelled due to weather or other unforeseen circumstances will be refunded.  Customer service address: 3079 W. Avenida Cresta, Tucson, AZ 85745


"This was the best birthday present I have ever had!  We have been talking about the awesome experience ever since.  Everything about that day was perfect: from the weather, beautiful blue sky, the awe-inspiring views, incredible piloting skill, champagne, and the great breakfast in which you took your time out to talk with us at our table.  We feel like we were a part of the journey, and you let us help out and get involved which made it that much more special.  Our pictures of that day are fantastic, and everyone we show them to is amazed. Thanks for being a part of one of the best vacations we have ever had."                         --THE STEWART FAMILY

      "Thanks a lot for the trip. My parents and wife haven't stopped talking about it!"
