cannot wait to go again…
“Absolutely INCREDIBLE experience and customer service!! I cannot wait to go again, it was amazing! My husband got me a ride as a birthday gift, and so I was worried that winter wouldn’t be the best time to go, I was WRONG! It was beautiful. We saw all kinds of wildlife, lakes, and cattle. Their team was super informative. It was seriously a wonderful time. I’m still smiling!

such a special experience…
“I have always loved going to hot air balloon glows and seeing them in the sky. My now fiancé set up a surprise proposal flight and Kurt and his team at Velocity Ballooning made it such a special experience! I really enjoyed how Kurt was very willing to answer any questions you had and let you be a part of the set up and take down so you’re very involved! Kurt also tells you history of ballooning which makes you appreciate it that much more. He’s also very clear in his instructions on what to do and intentional in his actions to keep you safe. Thank you to Kurt, Kim and Pete for this wonderful day and flight!”

the balloon ride was fabulous…
“My daughter Amy wanted to celebrate being 10 years cancer free on a hot balloon ride with her sisters! We are so thankful for the blessing of her life! The balloon ride was fabulous and we were able to see the Lake St. Louis area from high in the air! Thank you Kurt and Velocity Ballooning!”

always felt safe…
“What a great experience from start to finish! I thought a hot air balloon ride would be a good escape with the wife in these pandemic times, and it was! So serene and peaceful up in the air. Always felt safe due to the experience and personality of Kurt (pilot) and his crew. Perfect conditions, comfortable throughout. The toast at the end had some history, humor and camaraderie and was a fitting end to a fun outing. Will be back to take the kids up in the future.”

look no further…
“If you are looking to go on an incredible hot air balloon ride, look no further. I contacted Velocity Ballooning to set up a flight to propose to my now fiancée and Kurt was super helpful in scheduling and keeping me in the know. On the day of the flight Kurt was great about keeping the surprise and was able to take pictures of the whole thing. It’s clear that he’s passionate about ballooning and making the day something to remember forever. I would absolutely recommend Velocity to anyone looking for an engagement flight or just for fun!”
