11. Pasta making class with Chef Juwanza in Colorado Springs
5.0· 3 reviews· 2 hoursTwo hours of hands-on cooking — make fresh pasta and two classic sauces with guidance from Chef Juwanza.
“The chef was knowledgeable and patient, and we had a great time learning to make pasta. Since we had a large group, I suggest reducing the class size to minimize chaos. It was enjoyable to eat the pasta we prepared, and I would definitely recommend this experience.”— Beth_R
22. Hot air balloon sunrise flight over Colorado Springs
4.9· 43 reviews· 3.5 hoursOne hour at sunrise — enjoy spectacular 100-mile views from a hot air balloon above the Rocky Mountains near Colorado Springs.
“This experience could not have been more perfect. After a disappointing reservation process with another company, I found Adventures Out West and booked my hot air balloon ride without delay, receiving instant confirmation. However, it's important to note that reservations require a minimum of two people, so solo travelers might want to check directly with the company. The meeting point is about an hour’s drive from Denver, and we arrived just in time for sunrise. The team was friendly and welcoming, even that early. As we traveled to the launch site, they provided a safety briefing while preparing the balloon, which took about 45 minutes. It’s a tight space in the basket, so having a friend along made it much more enjoyable. The flight was nothing short of spectacular, gliding peacefully over Colorado Springs at 2,000 feet. We had the chance to see wildlife and an airplane take off below us, making it a breathtaking experience. When our ground crew got stuck in a ditch, our pilot, T-Dogg, handled the situation professionally, keeping us informed while we flew for nearly two hours instead of the planned duration. We eventually landed softly in the driveway of the Pikes Peak outdoor gun club, and the landing was surprisingly gentle, a credit to T-Dogg’s piloting skills. Although the ground crew couldn’t get free, they quickly arranged for a modified Jeep to take us back, where we were greeted with refreshments, including a celebratory champagne toast. This hot air balloon experience was a long-standing dream for me, and I couldn't have asked for a better adventure with Adventures Out West.”— Charisma_W
