Balloon ride.

Pero en español, me suena raro decir "montar", yo diría "viaje o subida" en globo o algo así.

"Volar en globo" aquí.
Si por acá se dice "montar en globo" se entendería, pero la primera idea es subirse literalmente en él, no en la canastilla.

Correcto. Y se me había olvidado el "volar".

¿Te gustaría galopar en globo?

Aquí lo más común es montar en globo es una collocation. Por supuesto se puede decir subir o viajar o volar. Me pregunto si hay una expresión similar en inglés.

I almost crushed my skull trying to think of "hot air", and obviously I couldn't get it out!

I find it an odd expression in English - to go for a ride in a hot air balloon. You are not in fact inside the balloon, you are in a basket underneath it.

Yes Phileas Fogg that's true. I think it would be horrifyingly hot inside the balloon.

Ya es una frase bastante larga para decir una cosa muy fácil. No hace falta complicarla más.
