Then, Choose a Time of Day

Sunrise (Available Year-Round)

Time of day: 5:30am – 8:30/9:30am
There’s magic in the world waking up beneath you.

As the light of dawn touches the Rio Grande Valley, you’ll float serenely above a landscape bathed in soft, golden hues. The sun creeps over the mountains, casting long shadows across the valley, and the mist rising from the river feels like a dream. Birds begin their morning calls as the world awakens in silence, leaving you with nothing but the sky and the peace of the moment.

Sunrise flights offer an unparalleled, tranquil beauty that often brings passengers to tears.

Sunset (Mid-Oct to Mid-Feb)

Time of day: 5:30pm – 8:30/9:30pm
There’s a reason Hollywood filmmakers love a good sunset.

As the day fades, each moment feels like a painting, with the valley transforming before your eyes as the sky shifts and deepens. The mountains and desert stretch below, soaked in fiery oranges, deep purples, and the softest pinks. The setting sun paints a dramatic landscape of shadows and color.

Sunset flights offer a unique sense of reflection that stays with you long after the last light fades.
