We could see this from our hotel room and got lucky at Downtown Disney and walked right up and got on after about a 10 minute wait. It was a windy day so they were only taking 10-12 people up at a time but it was amazing! Reasonably priced too.

A balloon flight over Disney, what could be better? Fantastic views, just wish we could have stayed longer, but a thunderstorm blew in!
I wanted to do this all holiday & a couple of times we were there the weather wasn't right for the balloon to go up.
We were lucky enough to get a flight the morning of our departure back to England!
It was great....me, my husband & our two children (5 & 6) really enjoyed it.
The views were amazing,...

For less than $20 ($15 with coupon), you can go up in a helium balloon. The views are nice, we went on a slow night and it was only our party on the flight. The balloon pilot was very nice, and took us up in time to see the fireworks coming from Magic Kingdom.

We arrived to a sultry 80 degrees as our plane touched down in Orlando but you can never predict Orlando December weather... We met with the flight experts as this family elopement was a surprise for our guests.. We were expecting a chilly...

Pricey but a must do at least once we did it at night it was amazing our five year old loved it.
Fancied doing something different, tried to get on it a few times but was closed due to weather but found a good weather day so really glad we did it, your only up for about 10 mins but you get a fab view of all the area, worth a go
We did this on the spur of the moment while we were at Downtown Disney. My 7 year old daughter saw it and wanted to go up. The price was reasonable, it was $30 for both of us to go. I do not like heights, so I wasn't sure of it, and it definitely looked worse from the ground.
