Your adventure begins upon arrival at their Sonoran desert launch site. You will receive a "pre-flight briefing" where you'll learn more about the hot-air balloon and how it flies, plus other facts you should know to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Once your balloon is inflated, you will join your pilot in the beautiful hand-created wicker basket. The luxurious, over-sized basket has plenty of room to allow everyone to enjoy the ride to the fullest. As you gently leave the Earth, you'll be amazed at how light the balloon feels. During the flight you have an unobstructed 360-degree view to take excellent photographs. We generally fly close to the ground, usually under 400 feet. At this altitude you are able to see the sights and sounds of desert life. We commonly see jack-rabbit, quail, roadrunner and coyote. From time to time, we encounter deer, javalina and other desert animals. Your pilot will point out exotic desert plant life below and descend to within inches of trees and cacti, much to everyone's delight. The pilots often decide to rise higher in order to give you a marvelous overview of the valley. By changing altitude the pilots may also be able to change direction by finding a shift in wind currents at another level. You will be amazed at the excitement and curiosity generated by the passage of their balloons. Throughout your flight their ground crews follow over desert lanes and roads so that they can be ready and waiting for you upon your landing, always a gala occasion. You are greeted in the traditional manner with flutes of champagne and scrumptiously prepared gourmet food. First-time riders will be treated to the legendary ceremony that balloonists all over the world have been sharing for more than a century. Then, almost magically, carpeting appears on the desert floor beneath your feet along with a lovely table complete with linens and china, a clue to what you are about to enjoy!

And finally, to prove your difference from ordinary mortals, you will be inducted into the ballooning society and awarded the Certificate d'Ascension En Machine Aerostatique.

Page is a city in northern Arizona. The city is best known for its two main attractions, Antelope Canyon and Lake Powell. Lake Powell is a destination "hot-spot" with its breathtaking scenery and welcoming environment. The lake caters to every traveler with secluded spots for relaxation and camping and deeper waters for boating, tubing, and jet-skiing. Lake Powell is also a gateway to many world-famous attractions such as Rainbow Bridge in Utah. Antelope Canyon is a "slot canyon", a narrow chasm in erosions in sandstone. Years of water and sand has rounded the edges to form curves and flowing shapes in the rock. Photographers love the beauty and unique shapes and lighting conditions of the canyons. Since 1997 the area has been accessible only by permit as it is now a Navajo Tribal Park.

Departing from the South Rim of the Grand Canyon in your private luxury SUV with your driver/guide, you will travel to Lake Powell. Lake Powell has nearly 2,000 miles of shoreline, and spectacular rock canyons and towers. You will also visit Lees Ferry, a tiny settlement next to the Colorado River, and see its remarkable scenery. The village is named after John D. Lee, a Mormon settler with 17 wives who established a ferry there in 1871. The ferry provided the only crossing of the river for nearly 60 years until a bridge was built a few miles downstream. The most spectacular and visible natural feature in the Lees Ferry area is the Vermilion Cliffs, an amazingly colorful escarpment stretching over 30 miles southwest towards Jacob Lake. Take an optional tour of the dramatic Navajo Canyon, with its dark desert varnish that appears like a tapestry on towering rock walls, and gaze on the grand views of Tower Butte and Glen Canyon Dam.

This sprawling one-story lodge sits on a promontory above Lake Powell and serves as the center for recreational activities in the area. The brightly colored Southwestern-style suites in the newest building are particularly attractive. The Rainbow Room restaurant offers an extensive Southwestern, American, and Continental menu and breakfast buffet, all with panoramic views of Lake Powell.
