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).

The balloon flight was fantastic it turned out to be a beautiful day. The breakfast was really nice as well. I especially enjoyed when we had to crawl on the balloon to deflate it. Thank you very much for organising it for me and Scott. Scott really enjoyed it, it worked out to be a great Christmas present - Melissa John and crew, we had the best day possible. My son and I have wanted to go up in a balloon for ages and always watched with envy on Australia Day at Parramatta park. Now we have been and you all helped to make the day even more fun. Thankyou

Thank you for a fabulous experience on Friday morning, 16th July. The ascent through the fog revealed a magnificent view of the Blue Mountains and sea of fog to the north. John, your skill in skimming Prospect Reservoir and the copy book landing in Kings Park, Fairfield, had to be experienced to be believed. Thanks for a great adventure and looking after.

It was tops! A very strange sensation (there was none and could not hardly feel the flying) and i guess thats what made it so special - very gental easy going flight.

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 The Sebel Resort & Spa, Windsor.
The Hot Air Balloon adventure takes around 4 hours to complete of which approximately 45 minutes is actual flying time.
If you wish to join us for gourmet breakfast upon landing, please remember to bring $30 per person.
