Hot Air Balloon Flight with Breakfast in Melbourne - 1 Hour

Highlights

  • Float over Melbourne as sunrise lights up the city
  • Toast the morning with a sparkling wine buffet breakfast
  • Take home complimentary photos and a flight certificate

Treat someone to a one hour sunrise hot air balloon flight over Melbourne, followed by a sparkling wine buffet breakfast back on the ground.

What's included?

  • One hour hot air balloon flight over Melbourne
  • Sparkling wine buffet breakfast
  • Complimentary photos
  • Digital flight certificate
  • Complete flight and ground insurance
  • Launch and landing government fees
  • Discounted parking at the meeting point hotel

Set off on a one hour sunrise hot air balloon flight over Melbourne, lifting away from the city while the sky is still soft and the streets below are quiet. You will meet before first light, watch the balloon fill and glow, then rise gently with your pilot as the first colour spreads across the skyline. Depending on the wind at dawn, you may drift above the CBD, the inner suburbs and the gardens that trace the Yarra River, with Port Phillip Bay stretching out behind.

There is nothing to do up here but look, point things out to each other and take it all in. Back on the ground, you are invited to help pack the balloon away before settling in for a sparkling wine buffet breakfast. Complimentary photos and a digital flight certificate come home with you. It is the kind of gift someone talks about for years.

Awesome experience

Shane 9 April 2022

Perfect experience for some team building - everything was perfect!

Amazing city views

Amanda 10 February 2022

This hands down is an experience everyone should do at least once! Our flight guide was fantastic, he was very informative. Had such an awesome time and would definitely do it again

Our balloon ride over Melbourne was excellent.

Sheryn 1 November 2019

From beginning to end our flight was a fantastic experience which began with a morning view of a mob of kangaroos at Westerfold Park. Kiff was an excellent pilot and kept us safe even though the wind did pick up that morning. Thanks also to his support crew Baz . I had great feedback from friends on the photos which I posted. A great morning topped off with a champagne breakfast at the Pullman Hotel

Was truly amazing but no photos to keep

Nathan 2 September 2019

The balloon ride was pretty much exactly what we’d hoped for: beautiful views, friendly staff, and well-planned safe adventure. The only let down was that the camera memory card glitched so we didn’t get proper photos. The breakfast was better than expected. Buffet style with pancakes, eggs, bacon etc.

wonderful way to start the day

A wonderful way to spend a special occasion- great views, beautiful and calm experience. Highly recommended !

A lovely way to start any day

Ash 27 February 2018

Information was passed on relatively easily regarding meeting place and time. Helping set up and pack up was fun and added to the experience. The hot air balloon ride over Melbourne was smooth, Darek was experienced and lovely to talk to. Felt very safe during all stages of the flight. Watching the sun rise in one direction and the city in the other made beautiful sights regardless of where you were looking. The champagne breakfast was well worth it with a help yourself service and heaps of options. Would definitely recommend this experience to anyone.

Something everyone should do at least once

Great preparation and communication before the flight. Mind-blowing experience to see sunrise from a balloon over the city of Melbourne. I guess you shouldn't be afraid of heights though.

Balloon flight over Melbourne

Geoff 20 January 2018

Lovely flight and very good staff on the day BUT we did NOT fly over Melbourne as booked and this was not really discussed other than mention of wind being too strong near city. We flew from Westerfolds park to Coldstream airport so the city was a distant background. This should have entitled us to a better explanation and possibly a partial refund as Melbourne flights are more expensive than Yarra Valley flights. Disappointed that we did not fly over city - once in a lifetime experience not achieved. I understand that Weather is an issue but better communication and compensation is also important. Also preflight communication the night before was not satisfactory and left us a bit frustrated trying to confirm if flight was going to happen - no phone contact possible and prerecorded message not updated appropriately. Nice flight and breakfast.
