Troy and his crew made the trip!
This was a bucket list item for me… I dragged some of my family along for the ride, and we all enjoyed it. Troy was our pilot/driver/bar tender and everything else all wrapped into one! He was amazing, super experienced, very friendly and he had the best stories! We helped with the holding of the balloon for the initial filling of it. I would also love to give a huge shoutout to one of his crew members, I wish I would’ve gotten his name, but in the midst of everything I forgot to get it. We lovingly referred to him as “Wong”- Dr. Strange sidekick (he looks like the actor Benedict Wong). He was amazing with me, I am short with zero upper body strength. I was having a difficult time getting out of the basket.. it could’ve been completely embarrassing… but he brought over 2 step stools and guided me on how to get out and had me use him as support.. so patient, calm and friendly! I will forever remember him! Rainbow Ryder peeps if you read this… give that man a raise!! I will come back thanks to him! We flew on Sunday 5/31/26 with Troy B. and this guy was one of his crew guys! For all who are wondering, you have to climb in and out of the basket using a few holes/openings on the side as steps. There are no doors! The height of the basket is about 3ft or so.. On the way in to the basket, you have to drop down and on the way out, you have to pull yourself out of it.. last item, don’t forget to tip your flight peeps! They do an amazing job.. we had 3 peeps in our flight crew! Tip them ALL!

Fun and informative old town ABQ tour!
Our guide Misty led us around Old Town sharing history and anecdotes. She made the information entertaining with her energy and deliver. We recommend this tour to appreciate Albuquerque’s long history that makes Plymouth Rock seem relatively modern. I was struck by the flooding and retreat of the Rio Grande River and how that shifted growth. Following the tour we ate lunch at a family owned place that Misty recommended and our food was delicious!!

Breaking really good (job)!
We arrived a few minutes early and the staff did a good job w/getting a head count prior to tour. The tour itself visits quite a few places (from actual show) but it was certainly entertaining (to say the least as we were being given the finger from randos LOL!) but it added to the experience, alongside the interaction, quiz games and show clips. Very good time and must do if in ABQ “yo”. Great job :)

We had a great experience...
We had a great experience with Alicia (I hope I spelled her name correctly). She was very knowledgeable and we really enjoyed our time with her. This tour was the highlight of our trip and we would recommend it to anyone who enjoys some history, with a dash of horror.

Brandon’s the Best
Brandon and Alan braved the cold with us to tell us even more chilling stories while informing us of the history of Old Town ABQ. Brandon is a great storyteller while also respecting the spirits that may still remain trapped in this place due to the nature of their demise. Would definitely love to book again with a different spot!

Recommended tour of Albuquerque
Fun and educational tour of Albuquerque in under 2 hours. Comfortable trolley. Good tour guide (Blake) and trolley driver (Shauna). We did not rent a car during our 5 day visit to Albuquerque so this was a great way for us to explore the area beyond Old Town where we were staying.

It's worth it and I might...
It's worth it and I might come back for the Balloon Festival 🎈. I would like to see the 600 Balloons at night 4 Corners Balloon Rides is the best pilot , he opened his own after working for the others and his staff also ran one of the larger othe companies.

Great Experience
Great experience. The operators put safety first and were very knowledgeable about the area we were flying over. They kept us up to date on potential weather impacts, so there were to surprizes and answered all of our questions about the balloon. The landing was soft and the story of the first balloon flight was very entertaining. This was my niece's first balloon flight, and she loved it. They also took pictures and sent them to us afterwards and provided us with our flight path including elevation througout the flight,
