Wonderful ride with great views and owners and operators were very friendly and helpful. Would like to ride again!

Went several years ago - actually chose them because they landed in my front yard the year before (which was awesome). Although the ride wasn't thrilling (very calm winds and we didn't go too far), it was well done and I really enjoyed the experience. The wine and cheese after was nice. When we (my bff and I) went, they didn't offer to take our photo, but I see from their FB page that they are doing that now (good move!)

Great experience... Views over mid-western New Jersey farmlands are terrific; we went at the height of the fall foliage season so the colors from above are amazing. This provider at Sky Manor Airport near Pittstown, NJ did a great job. We were lucky that we got to go on our booking date because sometimes the weather doesn't cooperate. The fun part was the landing in a backyard in downtown Clinton, NJ near Route 78.

I wasn't a rider, but my Son-In-Law arranged an anniversary flight with my Step-Daughter as a surprise. I was invited along as part of the ground crew and rode in their chase vehicle. From start to finish the guys and gals of Balloons Aloft were completely professional and a fun bunch to be with. We all got to assist in filling the balloon, the take off, landing and packing the balloon up to put in their trailer. Their pilot is very experienced and did a great job of choosing the landing site and gave the landowners the customary bottle of Champagne. He even flew over our property to give them a bird's eye view of our place. I can wholeheartedly recommend Balloons Aloft.

My sons and I took a ride with Marty and crew yesterday and it couldn't have been more magical!It was a surpise for my sons and they loved it. It was as if I were a little girl again and floating as I did in my dreams. Marty, Johanna, Eric and Alex were all the nicest, most polite, informative and professional folks I've ever met. Marty and Alex are the best photographers and they captured our fun and awe. All the reviews here are right on! Take the trip! You'll be so glad you did! Thank you again, to all of you at Balloons Aloft!

The balloon drifted and landed not to far from the family house that was at the end of the balloon trip. So every year we had our balloon party waitng for the balloon to float over. Great memories.

Marty (the pilot) and Johanna, run a professional first class operation. We were made to feel welcome and comfortable from the start. It was like being invited for a ride with friends, we worked as part of the team setting up and breaking down the equipment and the whole experience was safe, fun, and memorable.

I got my husband a hot air balloon ride with balloon's aloft as a wedding gift and it was worth every penny. Marty (the pilot) and Johanna, the couple who own the company, are some of the kindest people I've ever met and did everything possible to make this experience memorable for us. You start by helping the crew set up the balloon and then take off. Marty takes you up to an altitude of 2000 feet and the view is incredible. On the day we went the weather was clear enough to partially see the new york and philly skylines along with miles of beautiful, fall-colored forrest and an amazing sunset. Marty also lowers the balloon enough to coast on top of the tree-line where you can catch glimpses of forrest animals and a running creek. Landing was smooth and pleasant and we never once felt unsafe. Afterwards they bring you back to the facility and treat you to champagne and hors'd'oeurves while you chat with the crew and watch a slideshow of your ride (they have the crew take pictures from the ground while Marty takes shots from inside the balloon throughout the ride). I would recommend this experience to anyone; it's truly unforgettable.
