The flight was okay, but they forgot our hotel pick-up! We had to call three times and nearly missed the launch. Very stressful start to what should have been a relaxing day.

As someone afraid of heights, I felt totally secure. The crew is very experienced. Watching the sun come up over the horizon from the basket is something I’ll never forget.

The pilots are clearly experts. We did some low-level flying through the canyons before going high for the sunrise. The champagne and cake at the end were a sweet touch.

I loved that the basket didn't feel crowded. We had plenty of room to take photos as we drifted over Love Valley. The landing was so gentle I barely felt it.

Everything was like clockwork. The pick-up was early but the van was warm. The flight itself is silent and stunning. A perfect 10/10 morning.

Atlas made the whole morning feel easy. Picked up on time, a quick breakfast, and then the main event. Our pilot, Mehmet, was a legend—he made us feel safe and kept us laughing.
