There’s almost no better way to see California’s rolling hills, citrus groves, and vineyard estates than from above. If you’re looking for a one-of-a-kind experience, California hot-air balloon rides offer an opportunity to soak up the picturesque aerial views of the Golden State—often with added perks like breakfast pastries and Champagne toasts. Be prepared for an early morning wake-up time since many tours offer a view of the region at sunrise.
