Fly in a hot air balloon over a real national treasure. Dependent on wind directions, we always plan our take-off location on the morning of your flight. We have many launch sites scattered around the area. Why? To expressly give you the best views of Port Phillip Bay, the Bellarine Peninsula, Geelong and the surrounding countryside.

Port Phillip Bay, the city itself, the ocean to the South, the Barrabool Hills and the meandering Barwon River... you'll watch ever-changing coastal and historical landscapes from above.

Flights are at sunrise, so we will meet early at Rydges Hotel when it is still dark. Park your vehicle and jump into ours to be driven to our selected take-off site. Soon, you'll have the ground gently gliding past you, and the rising sun will colour everything in warmth. Then, you'll drift along gently suspended under the powerful burners of a modern hot air balloon.

After approximately an hour in the air, we will set down in a safe location, pack the balloon up, and drive you back to our original meeting point for a great breakfast. The memories are yours to keep forever.

Ballooning is very dependent on good weather conditions. The evening before the flight, you will receive an SMS message to advise that the flight is going ahead. If it is postponed, you can rebook another date directly with the service provider.

Allow 3 to 4 hours with approximately 1 hour spent in the air.

Available all year round.

Peak Season - October to April

Valid for one person.

We might land in farm paddocks and we can get a little dirty on packing the balloon away.

Children under 6 are not permitted on these hot-air ballooning adventures. You will be asked for your weight when booking. Weight limit - 130kg per person. No suitable for pregnant women over 22 weeks.
