I highly recommend Balloons Over Paso. I had always wanted to go on a balloon ride and was pleased to find a company in Paso Robles that I could book. Phoebe and Cameron were great, really going above and beyond! I liked that Phoebe provided pictures of us at takeoff, which we couldn't take ourselves. And Cameron was an excellent pilot, pointing out sights to us. They were both amazing! We did have to reschedule because of unusual weather, but Phoebe was very straightforward and proactive in communicating, and it wasn't really an issue. read more

Wow! Thank you so much Phoebe, Cameron and Dan!!! Such a cool, inviting team. My fiancé, 10 year old son and I had our first hot air balloon ride and it couldn't have been better. I was nervous, but the whole team was great. Phoebe did a great job explaining expectations which really helped to ease my nerves. The flight was seamless, beautiful sunrise views of Paso. Cameron, our pilot was experienced and a lot of fun. He had a lot to point out and involved my son in so much of the flight. Dan and Phoebe also took some incredible photos and videos of our flight and entire experience which was such a nice touch! Thank you again!!! I highly recommend Balloons over Paso! read more

My husband and I had the best time on our first hot air balloon ride thanks to BAP. Communication was streamlined, safety was a priority and every little detail was well thought out. What stood out to me the most, however, was how unbelievably personable and cool Phoebe and Cameron are. They truly made the experience and we couldn't have asked for better pilots (or people in general) to spend the morning with. Best part of our trip! read more

Breathtaking experience and a must do at least once in your life time! I surprised my partner with this incredible experience and we are still floating on air (excuse the pun). From start to finish, it was fun, exhilarating, romantic and thrilling all at once. Phoebe, the owner, makes the ride that much more amazing with her expertise, kindness and outgoing personality! Her crew included Jeff and Scott, who made us laugh and filled our minds with fun facts and stories. If i could, I'd give Balloons Over Paso and Phoebe an overwhelming 10 stars! Thank you Phoebe, Jeff & Scott for memories of a lifetime! read more

I couldn't have asked for a lovelier experience. First, you should know that I am afraid of heights. This balloon ride didn't change that but in all honesty, wasn't much of a big deal either! As soon as I got use to hearing the flames being triggered above our heads, it was just a peaceful, beautiful ride over Paso. The balloon ride was also more than I expected. The views, breathtaking, I wouldn't accept less, but then the conversation with our aeronaut about the history of the balloon and as he walked through the wind currents and so forth, I was even more amazed with our adventure. I highly recommend this company and this adventure to put on your bucket list. read more

Paso Robles was the choice for our 4th annual family vacation, August 2022. Paso offered our family many options for fun. The best one being Balloons Over Paso! We loved our hot air balloon experience. Phoebe, the owner of BOP was a pleasure to work with beginning with emails to actually meeting her at 5:30am the day of our ride. Our experienced pilot, Jeff was a kick and so very, very skilled. He glided us above the plentiful vineyards, stunning homesteads and breathtaking country. It was my second hot air balloon ride and the first for my son-in-law, son and grandson. Perhaps a once-in-a-lifetime for some but I can't wait to go up again! My choice would be to go up with Balloons Over Paso anytime. Not only was the ride outstanding, the entire experience from beginning the conversation, to unpacking and inflating the balloon, to touching earth again was without a doubt the BEST! Thank you to Phoebe and team! read more

Words can't express how much we enjoyed this flight! Phoebe was so personable when booking and the crew was amazing. Jeff, our pilot, made us feel comfortable above the ground. The ground crew, Scott, Hailey and Phoebe, made it all look so seemless and we were give. the opportunity to go inside the balloon for a family picture. The intimate ride was a dream come true for my dad and we are so thankful our first ride was with Balloons over Paso. Phoebe even gave my daughter bubbles and paper helicopters to launch in the air. The champagne, sparkling cider and chocolate chip cookies at the end was the perfect touch for a memory that will last a lifetime. read more

We had a wonderful experience Ballooning over Paso Robles with Phoebe. This was my personal first ever balloon ride. Ballooning is a wonderful way to see the Paso Robles area. The views were stunning. The ride is quiet and peaceful. Phoebe made us feel comfortable through the whole experience. Her command of the balloon was notable and her professionalism quite apparent. But more than that, she is so much fun and delightful to hang from a balloon with. She even served us Champagne and breakfast treats at the end of the ride! Do it! You won't be sorry. read more

I surprised my girlfriend for her 30th birthday with a trip to the Paso Robles area. While we had a terrific time wine tasting such great vineyards like ecluse, I knew my girlfriend would want to do more, so I reached out to a Balloons Over Paso, and to my surprise, Phoebe, the owner/pilot got back to me immediately. The very next day we were treated to scenic vistas of the various vineyards by Phoebe herself. The views were memorable but Phoebe's ebullient personality and youthful wonderment made the experience what it was - an intimate, personal experience. read more

First off, Phoebe is the greatest! I planned to propose to my girlfriend of 6 years and I wouldn't have done it any differently. Phoebe made things super easy and went above and beyond for us. From tricking my girlfriend into thinking there would not be a proposal to taking pictures and videos of our entire voyage. She even made a sign for us to hold at the end for pictures and can't forget about that banana nut bread + sparkling. Jeff was our pilot and he was full of fun facts and just teaching us about the ins and outs (ups and downs?) of ballooning. He made the ride very easy and relaxing. Of course, the experience of being in a hot air balloon was full of amazing views and for me, butterflies. Oh yeah... she said yes! Thanks to Phoebe, Jeff and Mike for making the start of our engagement perfect. read more

This morning, my husband and I went on our first hot air balloon ride. It was a bucket list thing for me, and this experience was great fun! The level of communication and professionalism displayed within this company proved to me that customer service is still alive and well!! Phoebe (the owner) and her crew were well prepared to answer all of our questions and teach us about ballooning. My husband and pilot, Jeff, had a great time discussing how the ballon worked- fascinating!! We were even allowed to stand inside of the ground inflated balloon. Needless to say, we exhausted our cameras by documenting this experience. The basket of the balloon held 5 people plus the 2 fuel tanks- seemed crowded at first, but we were so taken by the sunrise and perspective at a thousand feet that we were never affected by the altitude. We rode the wind currents so it hardly felt like we were moving! We were also blessed to meet another couple, Patty and Tim, who were celebrating their 5th anniversary! Special time meeting new friends! The 50-60 minute flight was certainly one I won't forget. The serenity that you feel when you see God's creation from a different perspective will stir your soul. read more

Amazing experience! Phoebe and her team were all awesome and really helped to create a life-long memory for my husband and I. They were all very professional, friendly, kind, and went above and beyond for us. I recommend her to anyone who is interested in doing this! I'd give her 10 stars if I could. PS she also gave us some of the best recommendations on food and wineries. read more

Phoebe is the ultimate female entrepreneur. She inspires women to go after their passions and to lead with a lust for life. She creates the ultimate experience not only during the booking process but throughout the flight and landing. We took our parents from the UK on their first flight and they were amazed by the beauty of the land and her knowledge of the surrounding region. Phoebe creates a personal experience that will last a lifetime. Cannot wait to share this experience with our friends! She is truly a captivating spirit that we are so grateful to have met and shared during this flight! read more

Fantastic ballooning experience with Phoebe! From answering all our questions at booking to making sure she could accommodate our specific needs during the trip, to an adorable little champagne breakfast after the flight, the experience was top notch. I couldn't have asked for more. It was a small basket, so just us and Phoebe. Private and peaceful. Unique experience that I highly recommend. read more
