The experience

The day starts with an early pickup in air-conditioned comfort from Nerang or Canugra, then a drive to the launch site in Brisbane's Scenic Rim. Once airborne, you float over the landscape with 360-degree views as the balloon drifts with the breeze. After landing, you're invited to help pack away the aircraft: a hands-on moment most travelers don't get elsewhere. The whole flight experience is led by Australia's most experienced balloon team.

After the flight, your guide takes you to a working vineyard for a full hot breakfast with a continental buffet spread. A glass of chilled sparkling wine comes with the meal to toast the flight. You'll also taste wines at the vineyard before the return journey back to your pickup location in the air-conditioned vehicle.

Is this one for you?Small groups work well here since the balloon basket holds a limited number and the vineyard breakfast is an intimate setting. The early start and moderate physical demands (you need to climb unaided into the basket) suit travelers who are comfortable with morning departures and can manage a bit of activity before settling in for breakfast.
