On June 5, readers voted Grand Adventure Balloon as their favorite in USA Today’s Reader’s Choice 10 Best list. The Fraser company outcompeted three other balloon tours that were also located in Colorado.
Grand Adventure Balloons offers rides every morning year-round, weather permitting. Co-owner Sue Castellion agreed with readers that Grand County is the best place to take a balloon ride.Grand Adventure Balloon Tours/Courtesy photo
“I’m super excited to finally get first after being nominated five years in a row and placing second twice last two years!” the company wrote to Sky-Hi News. “Very exciting for our 30th year at the Fraser Valley Sports Complex.”
The company offers tours year-round. Guests can experience breathtaking views of the Continental Divide, Rocky Mountain National Park and Colorado River as they float above Grand County with an experienced pilot. The balloon can reach heights of 3,000 feet, but can also fly low for wildlife viewing.
