Experience the thrill and excitement of a hot air balloon flight on an early morning tour, floating above the coastal scenery of Australia’s Gold Coast. Float like a cloud, as you watch the sunrise climbing over the horizon. See reflections off the myriad canals and waterways, and view the surrounding forested mountains of the hinterland. During your flight you will feel no wind, because you have become the wind! This is the unique sensation of hot air ballooning. You will be transported on an aerial nature tour, via the world's oldest and most romantic form of flight. The pilot will navigate you above the coast, before gliding back to ground. Then, you will be presented with your personal flight certificate as a memento of your hot air balloon flight.

Our professional tour guides will deliver you to the launch site pre-dawn for you to witness the impressive scene of balloons being inflated - once inflated they stand taller than a ten storey building. When the balloon is ready, step into the basket with your experienced pilot; feel the peace and serenity of floating above the countryside, see the rolling hills and open fields, set against the stunning backdrop of the rising sun. There is nothing in the world like the feeling of floating gently above the earth. Breathe in the fresh air, enjoy sweeping views of the famous Gold Coast Hinterland and Scenic Rim on one side then look towards the coast to see the skyline dotted with towering buildings - it's the best of both worlds! Our very experienced pilots will slowly guide the balloon down to the landing point, where the fun continues, we all pitch in and fold up the balloon itself, have a laugh and take some more photos. Finally we head to our exclusive boutique vineyard for a delicious hot breakfast, continental buffet and toast the sensational flight experience with a glass of sparkling wine. Fly with Australia's most experienced and reliable balloon operator. Hot Air’s pilots have more flight hours than any other operator in the Southern Hemisphere. They know every inch of the local area ensuring you have the most amazing, safe and comfortable hot air balloon flight.

See the rainforests and beaches of the Gold Coast as you float in a hot air balloon. Ride in a spacious basket and enjoy the sunrise up in the sky. Cap off your experience with an optional buffet breakfast at the Sheraton, or a return hotel transfer. Step into the balloon using Australia's only "Walk In basket", which allows easy access to the balloon. Next, take off and soar above the Gold coast as the sun shines and the breeze blows in your face. Marvel at the beaches and lush rainforests from above. Then, land on the ground and watch as the balloon is deflated and packed away with a specialized crane, without any customer help. Choose an optional 5-star breakfast at the Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort with a glass of champagne, or a hotel transfer in a 4X4.
