The Experience

Adventurist Air Balloon Voyages provides approximately 1 hour long hot air balloon flights in the Lewis and Clark Valley of Lewiston, Idaho and Clarkston, Washington. Flights are generally within 2 ½ hours after sunrise, and within 2 ½ hours preceding the sunset. Many of the fortunate few who have been lucky enough to experience a hot air balloon flight say it’s the closest thing on earth to a Magic Carpet Ride as you quietly and gently drift with the winds—an aerial adventure impossible to achieve in a noisy and intrusive helicopter or airplane.

As the Lewis and Clark Valley is one of the outdoor adventure capitals of the United States, we are truly proud to offer the most unique adventure experience in the Inland Northwest!

Preflight

We welcome you to our pre-dawn/dusk launch prep location with a Continental Breakfast of Coffee and fresh pastries. After a brief pilot orientation you are taken to our launch site.

At our launch site you are greeted by the cheerful bustling of activity, the buzz of our powerful inflator fans, the vibrant coloration of our state-of-the-art balloons and the exciting blasts of burners. Our well trained and skilled staff ensures a safety conscious yet comfortable launch experience.

Balloon the Valley!

Burners roar and then silence. With steady, gentle care, the balloon ascends into the early morning breeze that ushers you above the historic Lewis and Clark Valley, one of the most beautiful valleys in North America. As you drift along there is no turbulence. Carried along with the wind as your companion, you will experience the spirit of flight & adventure all at once—for you have become an Adventurist!

Above it all, your experienced and knowledgeable pilot and host will welcome questions and serve as your guide for points of local interest and the Valley’s extraordinary beauty.

Enchantment, romance, and excitement fill every colorful moment of this graceful adventure… Your flight is a the perfect occasion to celebrate with visiting friends and family or to pop the question of a lifetime 2,000 feet in the air!

The basket is an incredibly strong yet beautiful work of art, made of wicker and supple leather, and the glowing colors of the balloon punctuate the sky, you are now a spectacle the whole valley is watching in awe! Our baskets are designed for up to 5 passengers but generally limited to 4 as to provide extra space and comfort to our passengers.

Though the flight lasts an hour, the unforgettable memories will live on for a lifetime!

After gently swooping in to your final landing zone, your first flight is celebrated with a time-honored vintage wine celebration sponsored by our coveted local wineries. Share stories and enjoy friendly camaraderie as you celebrate the adventure of a lifetime!
