Great experience

Definitely worth a visit and something different to do when in Dubai. We didn’t book the solo flight but no one else was there when we attended so got the balloon to ourselves which was great. Captain was friendly and explained the process of going up in the balloon and what to expect. Short flight but nice views of the palm and a great experience.

Operator response

Hello RMC33, Your awesome review brings us immense joy! We continuously strive to meet and exceed the expectations of guests like you, and we're thrilled to have succeeded. It’s great to know our captain made you feel comfortable and well-informed, and that you appreciated the views of the Palm. We eagerly await your next visit.

Lovely night at Atlantis Balloons

I luckily was provided to have a private tour. It was after dark, and I was the last person to be on board with the pilot. The panoramic view of 360 degrees was better than any of the skyscrapers. It was just breathtaking and loving the city lights of Dubai ❤️ I would like to give a special thanks to the staff who arranged for me for the late visit to the Atlantis Waterpark with a private tour.

Operator response

Hi Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing your wonderful experience! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the private tour and the stunning 360-degree views—Dubai truly is magical after dark. It’s great to know that the city lights left such a lasting impression. Your appreciation means a lot to us, and we hope to welcome you back for more unforgettable moments in the future! 🌟
