Equally thrilling and relaxing, a hot-air ballooning adventure is a pure and unforgettable experience – especially over Australia's Outback. During your tranquil hot-air balloon flight over the spinifex grasses, spot big red kangaroos, seen nearly every day against the backdrop of the rugged MacDonnell Ranges. The still morning air makes flying conditions perfect during what is known in the hot-air ballooning industry as the "weather window", a gloriously peaceful time over an enigmatic landscape.

The hot-air ballooning journey begins with a briefing by the pilot before you head to the launch site and, if you like, help prepare the hot-air balloon for flight. Thirty minutes later you'll be drifting gracefully over the countryside. The hot-air ballooning flight itself will last around one hour.

Our flights are followed by refreshments in the “bush” after landing. Enjoy champagne, tropical fruit juice, muesli biscuits, exotic slices, cheese and fresh fruit before returning to you hotel. You will also have the opportunity to purchase photographs taken earlier in the morning.

Loved the hot air balloon. Spectular way to see the red (currently green) centre. Felt safe the whole time. Awesome.

Thoroughly recommend this experience to others. Combined with the scenery it is a memorable event.
