My husband was a reluctant participant, however the team gave you so much confidence in their skills he was soon put to ease. We had a perfect flight over amazing countryside. Totally worth the early morning.

What you can expect

Experience the thrill of flying in a hot air balloon over one of Australia's most beautiful locations: Yarra Valley. You'll take off over the beautiful Victorian wine region to soar over the country side as the sun rises.

Just one hour drive from Melbourne CBD, your hot air ballooning adventure begins with a briefing by the pilot before you head to the launch site and, if you like, help prepare the balloon for flight. Thirty minutes later you'll be flying on the wind over the Australian countryside for about one hour. Enjoy spectacular views of the mountains, river, and rolling landscape below as the sun rises over Yarra Valley.
