- Go flying over Melbourne CBD in a hot air balloon
- Get your adrenaline pumping and soak up the views

Feel the pure thrill of an extraordinary hot air ballooning experience over the beautiful city of Melbourne. Depending on the wind direction you may go soaring in your hot-air balloon flight over the CBD and the Yarra River, or over the inner suburbs, parks and gardens.
The still morning air at sunrise makes flying conditions perfect during what is known in the hot-air ballooning industry as the "weather window", a glorious time to fly over the city.
The hot-air ballooning journey begins with a briefing by the pilot before you head to the launch site, and if you like, you can help prepare the hot-air balloon for flight. Thirty minutes later you'll be soaring over the city in a hot-air ballooning flight that will last around one hour. Rise and shine early for an unbeatable flying adventure - it's worth it.
