Treat Yourself to One Epic Ride

If a balloon ride’s been on your bucket list, make the trip happen this year. Indianola’s Serenity Ballooning is hosting its final season, so get on their books now. Weeknight flights are still available.

Home to the National Balloon Classic, Indianola has several outfitters that offer sky rides, especially lovely when the fields are dressed in their spring green. Through Serenity Ballooning in Indianola, you can enjoy a champagne ride with up to three of your best friends and a pilot, or make it a special anniversary or birthday gift. Find other operators in the Indianola area, including FlyinKOAT.

And mark your calendar for the National Balloon Classic, this year scheduled for July 29 through Aug. 6.
