I wanna go with my fam! Just don’t know which day is the best. =)
I think I’ll go with the third fiesta day. Is there a free hot air balloon free ride?
@Sebs
I usually prefer going on the first day of the Philippine International Hot Air Balloon Festival because ti has the excitement of the first day.
If ever I would have a definite advise it would be to go to the first or second day because the third and fourth day are weekends and there will be A LOT OF PEOPLE…as in hoards of them 🙂
I’m so excited to be part of the balloon chase crew!
See you all there 😉
how much would it cost to ride the balloon? estimate per person?
There is no free Balloon Ride, a ride requires a contribution of $200/person for the expenses (Pilot and Fuel) 1st and second day are the best as few persons are in and all the excitement is there but all four days would be great, for the 17PIHABF, the first day is good if you wanna see the USAF show off their skills… Also, PAF will do a quick fly by with their SF260’s…
