Sinbad Balloon rides
This was a one in life time experience which this team made so enjoyable. Between the ballon captain Khalib and ground crew leader Mohamad, any nerves were put at ease. The trip up was smooth rise and the captain performed some turning maneuvers so we all could take sunrise photos. The landing a very smooth action with minimal ground impact. The ground crew were very efficient in stabilising the basket so we were able to exit safely all up well done team highly recommended.

Magical experience not to be missed.
This was an absolutely awesome experience. We were picked up at 4:50 am from our cruise ship and got a boat across the river to the West Bank where we piled into a modern a/c bus for the short drive to the take off area.
There were ALOT of balloons and people but it was very organized. Our guide was “Big Daddy” and his English was excellent.
Once we got the Ok to fly from the aviation authority the whole place burst into life with everyone inflating the balloons.
We were in a balloon for about 26 people but everyone had a great view as our pilot was excellent at pivoting the balloon around. Sunrise was stunning.
It was MAGICAL to not only fly but to see so many other balloons up at the same time. A truly not -to-be-missed experience.
