I hate to complain but....Mike's website promised "spectacular panoramas from higher elevations- as high as 2500 feet". All we got was the lower elevations-500 feet at most. When I asked Mike about going higher, he said you can't see the wildlife from higher up. I think Mike was just trying to save propane. If you have no intention of going... More

Had the opportunity to see Tucson from an entirely different perspective with Mike Fleury as my pilot, and his wife Becky in the chase car. WHAT A BLAST! To say that this was an outstanding experience is an understatement. Mike and Becky know their stuff, run a top shelf operation, and make you feel at ease from the moment you... More

Just got back from our ride with Becky, Mike and the crew and we had a blast. Rarely is a trip "as advertised" but, I must say this exceeded our expectations. The sensation of riding in the basket feels like, you are standing still and the earth is simply rotating below you. We sailed over the Tucson Mountain while taking... More

We flew with Fleur de Tucson on 3/7/13. We have enjoyed our previous visits to Tucson but we decided to see the city and the desert in a whole new way. Mike and Becky are genuinely kind and engaging. They make you feel welcome and feel at ease immediately. One person in our group has a fear of heights, but... More

As a commercial airplane/seaplane pilot I have found my wife of 25 years to be quite a reluctant passenger in our personal aircraft, but I was pleasantly surprised to discover that she had a hot air ballon ride on her personal "bucket list". After speaking with Becky, our family of four booked a flight and scheduled a Tucson vacation. The... More

30 years ago I lived in the SF Bay Area and always wanted to take a balloon ride over Napa Valley. Unfortunately life and responsibilities always got in the way. As I was planning our recent vacation to Arizona, I came across the Fleur de Tucson website and reserved a spot for me and my wife. Becky handled the pre-flight... More

A great Christmas gift for the kids, we wanted something special for them to remember our trip to the desert. We chose Tuscon for clearer skies, less pollution and longer than rides in Phoenix. A great ground crew got the trip started on time. Booking was easy and efficient,as was payment cash is always an option but extra surcharge on... More

My husband booked this trip for two, we wanted it to be special since it was our first hot air balloon ride, and that is how Becky and Mike (the host) had said it would be arranged. When we meet our host at Denny's we find out another couple is coming along for the ride, okay fine! We travel to... More

This was our 3rd balloon trip, and all have been wonderful. This one was different, we went over the Tucson mountains, great air speed and so quiet, but saw lots of animals, coyotes, mule deer, and many javalinas. Our "pilot" Mike was wonderful, he so enjoys his work, and his crew is the best. Love people who have a passion... More
