Hot air balloon Napa, the way locals do it.
Sunrise over the Carneros region, where the valleys converge — most mornings with views of both Napa and Sonoma. Champagne toast included, from $265.
One price. The whole adventure.
Champagne toast, pre-flight refreshments, an FAA-certified pilot and front-row sunrise views — all in one price, with no nickel-and-diming. Our launch sites on the eastern edge of Sonoma glide you through the enchanting Carneros region — the only wine region in America that spans both counties — and most mornings the winds carry us within view of both valleys, often drifting into Napa itself.
- Most flights take in views of both valleys — and the San Francisco skyline on clear mornings
- Spacious baskets — we never pack guests to the brim
- An easy drive from Napa — free parking at Sonoma Skypark
- As convenient as Yountville launches, without the crowds
Napa Valley views. Sonoma convenience.
Take off from the gateway between the valleys and land in wine country — never outside it.
