From the pick up to the balloon to the breakfast was so organised. It was great value and a truly fantastic experience for myself and two children (12&11).

Awesome experience and breathtaking view! Good for all ages, my 6 years old had lots of fun helping out to pack away the balloon and the crew was really friendly.

I received a gift voucher for my birthday for a flight and champagne breakfast at O'Reilly's. It took me almost a year to work up the courage to book it but once I arrived I wasn't the slightest bit worried. Everything was really well organised, from the pick up at Nerang (I received text updates of where the driver was) to when I was dropped back to my car. Jay was a very competent and experienced pilot (making an impressive precision landing directly on the track!) and floating above the hinterland was absolutely magical.
