Fly me to the Moon - Hot Air Ballooning Brisbane

Bookings Freecall 1800 252 668

Hot Air Ballooning is a must on your list of life's experiences. Be at one with nature as you drift gently over Brisbane City. The views are breath-taking, you can see for miles!

A traditional wicker basket provides a magnificent vantage, allowing you plenty of time to take in the splendour of the surrounding area.

The flight will last about an hour...the memories will last a lifetime.

We offer flights over Brisbane City. Take off is just after daybreak when the air is mild and still. The balloon usually travels 10-15 km during the flight. A 4WD vehicle which is in radio contact with the balloon, follows to your landing site.

Our Brisbane City flights launch close to the central business district. We meet our passengers at Toowong Park in Sylvan Road, Toowong. Complimentary pick-ups can be arranged from city accommodation.

Your flight will take you over the river allowing unparalleled views of the Brisbane City centre and surrounding suburbs. It is common for the in-flight views to extend north beyond the Glass House Mountains and south to the Border Ranges, with Moreton Bay and the islands visible to the east.

Definite flight paths cannot be predetermined as we fly in the direction of the prevailing wind. The flights are approximately one hour in duration but this may vary depending on weather conditions. Our priority is to ensure that you have a safe and enjoyable flight.

We recommend that you bring your camera or video and plenty of film. Wear comfortable clothing such as jeans or trousers, a light shirt, runners and a cap. In winter, when it is a little cooler, bring a jacket or jumper that you can take off as the morning warms up.   

Don't be concerned about being cold. The difference between the temperature on the ground and in the air is minimal.

All flights include a lavish gourmet champagne breakfast and each passenger receives a commemorative flight certificate. In-flight photos are available at additional cost.

Safety is our priority and we will not fly if weather conditions are unsuitable. 

Flight Costs:

All flights include a lavish gourmet breakfast at the Sofitel Brisbane Hotel (formerly Sheraton), each passenger also receives a commemorative flight certificate.
