Below are three tried-and-true hot air balloon tour providers in Sonoma County.
Sonoma Ballooning, Sonoma
Prepare to be captivated as you soar above the storied wineries and vineyards in Sonoma Valley with Sonoma Ballooning. A whole new level of fun, the company offers a variety of different flight packages. Most flights are 45 minutes to an hour and end with a post-flight Champagne toast.
Sonoma Ballooning offers guests an even more immersive experience by partnering with two area businesses. Choose Charlie’s Acres & Vegan Wine Tour to experience a tour of Charlie’s Acres Farm Animal Sanctuary before stopping at two vegan wineries. Or select Balloon & Blending, a unique experience in partnership with Meadowcroft Wines in which guests enjoy a sunrise flight and then spend the rest of the day exploring Meadowcroft’s gardens before blending, labeling, and corking their very own “Perfect Blend” bottle.
Santa Rosa Ballooning, Santa Rosa
Enjoy breathtaking, unrivaled views of the rolling hills and ancient redwoods surrounding Santa Rosa. With decades of combined experience in hot air ballooning, outdoor recreation, customer service, and hospitality, the dedicated team provides a safe and comfortable adventure you won’t soon forget.
Wine Country Balloons, Santa Rosa
Catch glimpses of the Pacific Ocean, fly above the winding Russian River, and look out over the undulating valleys — these are the views you can expect when flying with Wine Country Balloons.
Group flights and private flights for two are available. Wine Country Balloons offers launch sites all over Sonoma County. Afterward, enjoy post-flight Champagne and reminisce about the experience.
