I recommend booking your ride online in advance to snag a discount – I saved a good chunk of cash doing that!

Make sure to ask your pilot questions during the flight! They have some amazing stories and tips about the area. I wish I had done that more.

I totally recommend booking your flight during sunrise. The view is beyond magical, and it makes for great photos! Plus, the weather is more stable at that time. Just set that alarm early!

Bring a light jacket! I didn't realize how chilly it would be up there, especially before sunrise. I ended up shivering instead of enjoying the breathtaking view!

I suggest checking out the little local food trucks nearby after your flight. I found this taco stand that was cheap and absolutely delicious! Best way to end the adventure!

My advice is to arrive by 6:30 AM. The early morning light is stunning for pics, and the whole experience has this magical vibe as the sun comes up!

I suggest booking your hot air balloon ride well in advance, especially on weekends. I waited until the last minute and missed out on the sunrise flight—totally bummed about that!

Make sure to ask about the landing area before takeoff... We ended up in a field way farther than expected, and the ride back to the departure point took time we could've spent exploring

I think you should bring layers of clothing. It gets chilly in the mornings before the sun comes up but warms up quickly once you're in the sky.

Don't forget to try the local food stalls on the ground after your ride! I missed out thinking I'd just grab something later, but they have some awesome snacks!

My advice is to arrive at the site by 6 AM if you want to catch the sunrise from the balloon. Trust me, it's breathtaking and you'll avoid the crowds.

My advice is to book your tickets online in advance to avoid long queues at the ticket booth. We saved a good chunk of time and got to enjoy the beautiful views sooner.
