Fly with our commercially licensed pilots
in a colorful hot air balloon!
Since 1978 ballooning has been our passion and profession.
Trust our nearly 40 years of experience to bring you the best adventure hot air ballooning has to offer. Our new, high-sided, large balloon gondolas more room and an unobstructed view of some of the best scenery in the region, while carrying 8 to 11 passengers in comfort.
Our guests help us with the inflation, then rise above the earth on a safe, yet exciting and exhilarating flight.
The flights start soon after sunrise or just before sunset when the air is at its calmest.
Because the balloons can only drift with the wind once they are launched, we make our ascent upwind of an area known to have a large number of good landing sites. For this reason our launch sites vary depending on the wind direction at flight time. Flights are of course weather permitting.
We at the BALLOON DEPOT have been flying in the beautiful valleys of the Puget Sound region since our founding; this long, accident-free experience enables us to provide you with the best possible flight. We may brush through the treetops, sweep down over a field of wildflowers, skim over a pond, or climb high above the earth for a spectacular view. Each flight is a unique experience.
