Product Details
Imagine floating above the Barossa, drifting with the breeze without a care in the world.
Dreaming?
Ballooning is probably the most romantic form of transportation, from the traditional wicker basket to the champagne breakfast. Balloon flying in the morning, wine tasting in the afternoon. Sound tempting? Make the dream a reality and become a Certified Balloonatic.
Once at the launch site, help inflate the giant colourful balloon. Climb aboard, and then it's up and away for an experience of a lifetime.
Flying with the wind for an hour means plenty of time to take photos and enjoy the sense of freedom. The views are sensational, and this area is perfect.
When we land, our support vehicle arrives. We pack the balloon away and head off to pop some corks and enjoy some of the fine Barossa food.
After breakfast, you are officially certified as a Balloonatic and have your flight certificate to take home and share with friends.
