So much fun! I cant tell you how much we enjoyed our flight. I thought wed be in a balloon with a few other people. We got there to a full parking lot. Six balloons were going up that morning! The weather was gorgeous. It was an extra nice thing for my husband as he was able to show me, from the air, the farms where each of his parents were raised. He couldnt get over how quiet it was up there. I discovered the pilot has lots more work to do to keep track of wind direction and whatever. They were all excellent. It was a fairly still day so he sat us right down on top of the Willamette River! As we rose from the river, drops of water splashed on to the balloons reflection in the wate. I have pictures and videos. Oh, and the company is very organized. It was easy to check in, no confusion, lots of direction on finding "your" balloon. Many thanks to the volunteers that re the ground crew and chase crew. They have to figure out what farmers field we will light in. I cant recommend this experience highly enough.

Going for a balloon ride with Vista Balloon Adventures was an incredible experience! Id been meaning to check hot air ballooning off my bucket list for a while and Im so happy I got to do so with Vista. My pilot, John, was very thorough and made me feel extremely safe. The crew was SO friendly and engaging, explaining everything as it was happening and even letting passengers help with certain jobs. The flight itself was breathtaking, flying over the Willamette Valley is amazing. The post-flight brunch was delicious and the toast (given by the owner, Pierre) was cute and the perfect end to an unforgettable morning. I will definitely tell ALL my friends and family about Vista and my pleasant experience.

What a way to check off a bucket list item for my parents 90th birthday celebration. The staff is all volunteers and they were so nice and helpful. We loved our pilot, Kellie. She made us laugh and feel comfortable the whole time. The catered breakfast was delicious. Only wish we had some coffee. I have to say that working with Pierre and Sandy was terrific too. I must had called them multiple times, checking on things, asking questions and they were always so pleasant and helpful for 10 of us of all ages. We had the time of our lives and will remember this adventure for years to come!!

We had a very wonderful experience with Vista. We couldnt have asked for a more beautiful day and the people were great. The ride was so smooth and peacefully, everywhere you looked it was amazing. We did a Splash and Dash on the Willamette River, took pictures and video like crazy. We enjoyed the champaign brunch afterwards and talked with our pilot Rod who was great. We are 74 years young and hope to do this again with Vista before we hit 80. Another thing to cross off our Bucket list.

We had a great experience with Visa Balloon Adventures! We arrived bright and early, unfortunately the weather wasnt very cooperative, but the team did a great job of keeping us informed about the status of our ride. We ended up flying a few minutes behind schedule because of some low hanging clouds. It was a wonderful ride with a very exciting landing in Dundee. The crew was wonderful and we loved that they encouraged us to help get the balloon set up.

All I can say is wow, that should be experienced. Amazing, almost dreamlike floating slow and quiet in gorgeous country. Great people, very safe, great breakfast, so fun. Check that one off the bucket list as soon as possible. Our pilot had it together, and I always felt safe, leaving everything to be enjoyed in a very unique way.

What a wonderful morning! Those "fear of heights" thoughts turned into nothing! It was gradual and serene as we floated to a gorgeous view. I loved the wispy descent we made to the river! Well organized with a great crew and pilot (thanks Kelly). Has to be on everyones "to do" list!

Incredible experience and company! Everyone needs to experience hot air ballooning, and these guys have it down, top notch staff and company. Ive flown with them twice and both experiences were wonderful and inspiring. Cant recommend ballooning and Vista strongly enough.

My 86 year old mother had a balloon ride on her bucket list. Vista went over the top to take care of mom and ensure that she had a great time. The trip was a blast and I highly recommend it to anyone. Very professional and very fun !! I cant wait to bring the grandkids !!

5 stars out of 5 stars! The Vista Balloon folks were outstanding as was the hospitality and especially the hot air balloon ride! Our pilot (John) is the best in the business. If you are considering a hot air balloon ride, this is the place. Safe, fun and fantastic!

We had a great time! The views were wonderful, but so was the experience of our whole family pitching in together to help get the balloon inflated and then packed up at the end. Staff was knowledgeable and courteous, and helped make this a very special experience.

Awesome experience from start to finish. We had an enthusiastic staff, which helps pre-sunrise, and we had a fabulous pilot who made everyone feel comfortable. To make even better, it was nice to have a catered breakfast with vegan options and champagne.

This is a lovely experience and Vista pulls it off with grace. They get all of the balloons off the ground and take a beautiful ride. You get to partake in putting things away and all meet together for what was a surprisingly good brunch...and mimosa.
