Experience a hot air balloon flight over the Atherton Tablelands with hotel transfers, sparkling wine toast and a three course lunch at Ochre Restaurant.
Immerse yourself in a breathtaking adventure above the hills of Cairns in a hot air balloon ride, with hotel transport, photo packages and a toast with sparkling wine and a snack, before enjoying a three course meal and a drink at the Ochre restaurant. Guests will be collected from their Cairns or Northern Beaches accommodation and transferred to the hot air balloon site in a convenient, one hour, air conditioned transfer. Watch with anticipation as vibrant colours emerge and the balloons take shape against the backdrop of the sky, a spectacular preview of the day’s adventure.
Once the balloon is fully inflated and ready for flight, you’ll step into the sturdy wicker basket alongside an experienced pilot. Feel the excitement build as the burner’s flames hiss and fill the balloon with hot air. As you ascend into the sky, a sensation of peace and serenity envelops you as you experience the tranquil beauty of nature from an extraordinary vantage point. Under the experienced guidance of a skilled pilot, guests will enjoy a smooth descent back to the ground, where the fun continues. After landing, you’ll be invited to join in on a celebratory toast with sparkling wine or juice, along with a light snack. Commemorate your time in the sky with a signed certificate by the hot air balloonist.
Continue your adventure by indulging in a sumptuous three course lunch at Ochre Restaurant, where the essence of local Australian cuisine comes alive. With a commitment to showcasing the rich, seasonal ingredients sourced directly from the Atherton Tablelands and the Cassowary Coast, as well as from sustainable local fisheries, each dish at Ochre is a culinary masterpiece. This combination of adventure and gourmet dining promises an unforgettable experience that highlights the area’s stunning natural beauty and cultural richness.
Spectators can join guests at lunch but they will need to purchase their own food.
In the event of rain or inclement weather your hot air ballooning will still go ahead unless contacted by the experience provider. Lunch runs in all weather conditions.
Please wear casual, layered clothing, a jacket, long pants, and close toe shoes. Please avoid wearing white, heels, slippers or skirts.
This experience includes transfers from your Cairns and Northern Beaches accommodation or hotels. Please advise of your preferred pick up location at the time of booking.

That's 10% of the Australian population! When we started 'doing' experiences in 2001, Facebook didn't exist; the iPod had just been invented; John Howard was Prime Minister; and Destiny's Child were popular (yikes!). We've been at this business of experiences for quite a while, so put your trust in us to show you a good time.
We want you to have the most enriching experience possible, so if this means swapping your jet boat experience for wine tasting then we've got you covered. Simply exchange online or contact our Customer Experience Team and we'll do the work for you.
We understand life gets busy, which is why all vouchers and gift cards purchased have a 5-year expiry. The only exception to our expiry terms is if the experience has already been booked in. We honour the purchase price of our experiences for 18 months. If you book your experience after this time and the price of the experience increases you can either pay the difference or exchange it for another experience free of charge.
We know the trust consumers place in ratings and reviews is tied directly to authenticity. That's why we use Bazaarvoice. We believe that reviews should represent the genuine, unbiased, and transparent opinion about the author's experience with a product or service. Reviews are not altered in any way by anyone other than the original author — including corrections for spelling or grammar. Reviews are not filtered, edited, or deleted simply because they are negative or are lower-rated.
