Orlando balloon rides

Hi
Has anyone used these before for a hot air balloon ride?
I saw this on the US Groupon site and bought one for my wife. I have booked it but just wondered if anyone had done this and what they thought.
Thanks
Adrian

Used them the last time we were in Orlando, brilliant is all I can say, they took us over the Disney parks which was a treat as it was something they said they didn't do very often, though they did have to take the balloon up an extra 2,000ft, the flight itself was about an hour, all in we were done by about lunchtime, it's an early kickoff as well though and you get to help inflate the balloon and pack it away as well

Yes, we did the same as you and bought a Groupon. It was the highlight of our trip! It's exciting watching the set up and then it's so peaceful as you float along watching the sun rising.

My advice would be to book it for early-ish in your holiday so that if it has to be rescheduled because of weather then you have time to rearrange
