  • EXPERIENCE THE MILE SKY-HIGH CITY!

    Hover, float and soar among the majestic Rocky Mountains with Denver flying experiences from Virgin Experience Gifts!

    With experiences that range from tranquil and relaxing to top-notch adrenaline rushes, it's easy to find unforgettable ways to explore the Mile High City from overhead.

    Gracefully make your way along the Front Range and surrounding areas in the most peaceful ways known to aviation. Find yourself being led up, up and away for one of the most breathtaking air tours Colorado has to offer: a scenic glider ride! This engineless experience allows for unparalleled views of the city of Boulder, the awe-inspiring Flatirons, University of Colorado, and the Continental Divide.

    Drift upward and beyond in one of the most remarkable Denver flying experiences – a hot air balloon ride! Discover for yourself why there's no place like Colorado as stunning scenery offers endless visual delights: the Rocky Mountains, impressive plains, and maybe even the Denver skyline or wildlife, depending on your launch site! Then enjoy a traditional champagne toast upon landing the timeless aircraft.

    Perhaps pilot lessons are part of your bucket list? Get ready to consider that ambition a done deal. Learn to fly experiences in Denver let you hop right into a cockpit for helicopter pilot training or airplane lessons! Both excursions are conducted by aviation schools with FAA certified flight instructors to guide you from start to finish, including a ground orientation, pre-flight inspection, and first-rate coaching in the air.

    Want to up the airborne ante a bit? Give a biplane ride in a Pitts S-2B a go! Indulge in a flight that offers both relaxing scenery, as well as the option to throw a few aerobatics into the mix! Nothing beats loops, spins and rolls among the backdrop of Denver and the Rocky Mountains. For an airplane ride you'll never forget, take the controls and try a few tricks yourself!

    And for Denver flying experiences that let you spread your very own wings, try indoor skydiving — it's a perfect aerial activity for both kids and adults who are craving the freedom of personal flight!
