Hot Air Ballooning Sydney Have you ever seen Hot Air Balloons floating silently above you? Join us on a Hot Air Ballooning adventure in Sydney and experience one of the most serene, enjoyable activities most of us will enjoy.

Rising before dawn, you can join the crew in unpacking and preparing the balloon for flight - which is a spectacle in itself! After an exhilarating launch, you'll drift with the wind silently over the parklands, homes and hills of the Hawkesbury region of Sydney. Of course you never know where you're going to end up as you can't steer balloons; to maneuver the balloon your pilot ascends or descends in altitude, catching different wind currents.

After landing you can help the crew pack the balloon away, which is a bit like packing up a 100ft tall sleeping bag! To top off the morning you'll celebrate with a champagne breakfast at a gourmet venue (available at an additional fee of $30, payable on the day).

more information

The adventure begins by inflating the balloon using a giant portable fan. Once the balloon starts to take shape the burner is lit, heating the air inside. The hot air inside is lighter than the cool air outside and this is what creates the lift and why it is called a Hot Air Balloon. Passengers are welcome to assist the pilot and crew with inflating the hot air balloon at the launch site, which only takes about 20 minutes.

Hot Air Balloon Flights operate every weekend, weather permitting. Weekday flights are available but subject to minimum numbers. The meeting point is Crowne Plaza Norwest, Baulkham Hills. The Hot Air Balloon adventure takes around 4 hours to complete of which approximately 45-60 minutes is actual flying time.

If you wish to join us for gourmet breakfast upon landing, please remember to bring $30 per person.
