I think the headset can get a bit hot, so wearing a light and comfy outfit helps. Just don’t forget sunscreen, even if it’s not super sunny!

I recommend checking the weather beforehand. I almost canceled my flight due to a forecast, but it turned out fine. Just be prepared for a little turbulence depending on the day!

I suggest booking your flight in the morning around 8 AM. The skies are clearer and you get that beautiful soft light for photos. Trust me, the sunrise views are stunning!

I suggest wearing layers. It can get pretty cool up there, especially if you're doing a longer flight. A light jacket makes a huge difference, and you won’t be stuck feeling chilly!

If you're thinking of bringing kids, check their age limits. I found it a bit frustrating to figure out the rules on-site; I wish I’d looked into that before going.

I recommend booking your flight in the morning, like around 9 AM. The views are clearer and less crowded, plus you’ll have the rest of the day to explore the area after the ride

I recommend splurging a little on the breakfast afterward; it’s not just your average meal. The views from the restaurant are stunning, and it’s a nice way to wrap up the experience.

If you're going to BalloonMan, definitely book your flight well in advance. They can get super busy, especially on weekends. I booked a month ahead and it was totally worth it!

If you’re worried about cost, look for combo deals! I found a package that included both the balloon ride and a winery tour, which saved us some cash and gave us more bang for our buck

Don't forget your camera and maybe a good zoom lens if you have one! The wildlife around there is incredible, but I had to settle for blurry pics with my phone.

If you can, book your flight in the early morning, like around 9 am. The weather tends to be calmer then, and you get a better experience with less turbulence. I honestly wish I had gone earlier!

My advice is to bring a good camera, but make sure it has a strap! I almost lost mine while taking pics. The views are just stunning, and you’ll want to capture every moment!

Bring a small go-pro or ask if you can film! I didn't realize they allowed it and missed capturing some epic moments. Trust me, you'll want to relive those spins and flips later!

Check the weather ahead of time. It can get windy, and that might delay or reschedule your flight. I had to wait an extra day because of it, but at least it was worth the wait when I finally flew!

If you're keen on aerobatics, I recommend booking your flight early in the day... The visibility is usually better and it makes the whole experience more thrilling! Plus, you avoid crowds later in the afternoon
