About the place

Start your day in a hot air balloon

Witness the impressive scene of balloons being inflated after your professional tour guides drop you off at the boarding site.

When the balloon is ready, step into the basket with your experienced pilot; feel the peace and serenity of floating above the rainforest-covered hills and mountains, set against the stunning backdrop of the rising sun. There is nothing in the world like the feeling of floating gently above the earth.

Breathe in the fresh air, and enjoy sweeping views of the Atherton Tablelands on one side and the Great Barrier Reef on the other!

The experienced pilots will slowly guide the balloon down to the landing point.

Enjoy a light breakfast

After your hot air balloon ride, grab a light snack and toast the sensational flight experience with a glass of sparkling wine.
