Breathtaking experience! Although we had to reschedule once due to thunderstorm ( which was very well communicated in the website on expectations) , we got to do this on a beautiful summer day! Went up to 6000 ft and had a great time floating in the air, peaceful and calm. Would definitely do it again.

The owner and the pilot were very nice people - explaining everything as we went along - very educational and so peaceful up there. I only wish it was a longer flight.

It's an amazing experience, there's completely enough time for you to take pictures and record videos while still having the rest of the ride to actually take it in and really enjoy. It's great because you can help inflate and deflate the balloon and then get on and say"I helped do this". And it will be super memorable. The only con is that the max number of riders are 6, not including the pilot.

The best event I ever attend. The crew members are super nice. Very friendly and flexible. The view is great in the air. We can't wait to go back and try the sunset tour.

About Chicago Balloon Rides
Floating high above the earth makes your troubles seem a world away—up there, it's just you and the breeze as you gaze out on Illinois's rolling farmlands and spot the Chicago skyline in the distance. Thanks to Chicago Balloon Rides and its fleet of vibrant hot air balloons, you can experience life as a bird or a very cautious cloud. The FAA-certified pilots lift off with groups of up to six passengers, and also helm private tours for two made even more romantic with champagne, fresh-baked pastries, and chocolate-covered strawberries.
