Top Albuquerque Outdoor Activities

We went on a one hour morning hot air balloon ride with Four Corners Balloon Rides! It was an amazing experience - Even better than we anticipated for our first ever ride!! We expected bumps and choppiness. Several of us who get “car sick” even took Dramamine, anticipating roughness!! NOT NEEDED! It was a delightfully smooth, calm ride! We watched the sun rise, encountered many beautiful sights and sounds of Albuquerque. We rode during the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta and loved seeing many other balloons join us in the blue sky! Our “basket” held 12 people comfortably and was roomy enough to take all the pictures we wanted. Our pilot , Jonathan, was experienced, personable and “spirited”! He was serious about his responsibilities as balloon pilot. Yet very friendly, funny and made us feel at ease! At the conclusion of the ride, we were treated to a champagne toast which is a tradition that typically follows a safe ride!! It was the perfect ending to a “once in a lifetime” experience! Thank you, Four Corners, for a beautiful memory!!

This was an amazing experience! One I will never forget - Chad was awesome guiding us over the the land! The whole team was so informative and help us understand all the things we needed to know to keep us safe. Fabulous and must do experience with this team!

I was nervous when I booked this experience, but I knew I really wanted to do it. It was amazing. So beautiful and peaceful. Everything was organized from start to finish. Our pilot, Kris, and his crew were friendly and professional. I asked a lot of questions and all were answered with no issues. I would definitely do this again. Do it! You won't regret it.
