Ben, Blake and the ballooning team on Saturday morning were spot on. Tash loved it, it didnt help that i forgot my sunglasses. the views were fantastic . would have liked more time at the vineyard but then we would have stayed all day. I have a friend from my office that wants to take his girlfriend now. (via Google Reviews)

Hot air…
“you must do this more than a hot air balloon ride!!!!”
Hot air ballooning on the gold coast is a must do you would be a fool not to.
we traveled australia for 6 weeks done many tours and trips this is by far the best.
To describe our day we got picked up on time meet one of the friendliest tour guides ever who had a mild obsession with croisants (we still laugh about now). we then drove to the launch site where the balloon was almost ready to board. we took an ride which was ment to be 30 min but lasted 45 that was a bonus. The pilot was great and new every site we flew over. Then we packed up the balloon with another crazy guide that made it really fun. and then we headed of to the vineyard for champagne breakfast and wine tasting(oh and croisants) that was amazing the food was great with lots of choice and the views wow!!! well you have to do it and see to find out for yourself.
then we drove back with a dvd playing and the croisant man talking about guess what.... croisants.
THIS IS THE BEST THING TO DO not just in brisbane but the whole of australia the views, the wine tasting, the day, the people its GREAT (via Trip Advisor)
