Pre-dawn, a professional tour guide collects guests from accommodation and takes them to the launch site to witness the impressive hot air balloon inflation. Once the balloon is ready, step into the basket with an experienced pilot and feel the peace of floating above rainforest-covered hills, mountains, and tablelands, set against a stunning sunrise. Take in fresh air and sweeping views of the Atherton Tablelands and the Great Barrier Reef in the distance. After a gentle landing, help fold the balloon, enjoy a light snack, and toast the experience with sparkling wine. A complimentary 3-course meal voucher for Lemoncello's Restaurant will be emailed after the flight.
