When my mom passed away my sisters, dad and I wanted to do something special together. We opted for a hot air balloon ride and it was such a memorable and special ride. We met the pilot and crew at Bob Evans and set up in the field next door. The crew are friendly, knowledgeable, and make for a great experience. We got to help set up and then off we went. It is amazing how much you can see and hear while in the basket. Afterward, they picked us up and drove us back to our cars.

Very nice, professional team! Amazing experience, definitely worth trying! We booked the non-exclusive flight and it was very cool, although one must realize there are 7 people in the basket, cozy! :) The whole experience took around 2.5 hours, with the orientation, filling the balloon with air, taking off, flight(~ 1 hour), landing and having a cool toast at the end. We felt very safe during the flight, the height was very comfortable and the views were fantastic. We were given the champagne glasses and flight certificates at the end, which a nice souvenir. All in all, simply fabulous! :-) Thank you Bella Balloon and our pilot Mike! P. S. Perhaps a useful hint: it is very weather dependent and we had to be rescheduled 3 times in order to have a safe trip, so might not be the best for tourists staying shortly, as the deposit is non refundable.

We took my Dad on a balloon ride for his 60th Birthday. It was the present and he loved every minute. It was a great thing to do as a family. We did a sunrise trip and the views were unbelievable. Our pilot Mike was a blast and the crew was great. It was a wonderful and memorable experience.

Wow, what a wonderful experience to share with my wife on our anniversary. This company really knows how to show off Ohio. We saw deer, rivers, forest areas, then after about an hour we landed in a cul-de-sac then when all was done shared some bubbly. Truly an amazing time we will remember for a lifetime.

The balloon ride itself was an incredible experience, and the folks at Bella were top notch. Mike, our pilot, was an absolute pleasure to fly with, and the crew was fun and friendly. Couldn’t recommend these guys highly enough!
