What a fantastic day! Everything was perfectly organised and we will never forget the beautiful landscape of the hinterland - so different than the Gold Coast scenery and without doubt the best way to see it. Our Children, Jessica and Harry have not stopped talking about it! We will definitely recommend you to all our friends. Thanks for everything Paul and Sisse
Hello Thanks for a fabulous morning - it's been the best birthday present anyone could wish for!! You surely have the best job in the world!! We felt totally safe in your expert care and would recommend this experience to anyone!! Hot Air, way to go!!
I organised 6 of my friends, we are so glad we did. What a happy bunch you are. We really really enjoyed breakfast, what a pretty spot and the visit to the Vineyard went down well too. See you again when I can talk a few more friends to come for a ride. Cheers
Good one team. My girlfriend said yes.
Hi HotAir I would like to say a big thank you for one of the most magical mornings. It was just great when the basket slowly lifted from the green field. Your bus and video is top class, I really liked the great location at the champagne breakfast. Thanks Sofie
Looking at the lush green hinderlands from so far up and watching the sun rise and the different shadows forming on the ground. Breakfast was also really nice! Our driver.....I forgot his name. He was really funny!
hello my name is georgia i am the daughter of one of the crew of hot air and i know that they are a great company and Cairns and the Gold Coast is lucky to have such a great crew in their presence and they care about everyone and how their day turns out, they do not rest until you have had a great and memorable time. Enjoy from Georgia
We had such a wonderful morning! We drove overnight from Bundaberg to get to the Gold Coast in time for the early start - and we are SO glad that we did. Everyone was so professional and welcoming and the experience was breathtaking! The view was amazing, and the breakfast at O'Reily's was beautiful in a stunning setting. We booked the package with a birthday cake for my friend which was a lovely touch, although we were so full from breakfast we couldn't eat it! THANK YOU so much for an unforgettable experience. I highly recommended Hot Air to everyone.
First and formost, I wish to thank you for giving us the 'Time of our life' on board your hot air! It was simply Superb! Who ever sees the pictures are envious! It was worth getting up early to be ready for the 'Flight' and the feeling when up in the sky was Exhilerating! Thanks for the good time you organised for us. Warm regards, Urvashi
I want to thank you once again for the fabulous time me and my parents had Hot Air Ballooning in GC. Ballooning and descending in the Hinterland and the breakfast at O' Reilly's Vineyard was really special. Your crew are amazing guys and I would like to place on record that each one of them is a special person. This is a product that I would recommend to all my agents/clients
Hey it's rick me and my wife Denise just wanted to say that i had a wonderful time when i went on my wonderful flight i am so glad that i picked Hot Air because they are worth what you pay for they give you a time that you will never forget and the whole crew is funny entertaining and they are lovely and friendly! the Operations Manager/pilot for Hot Air, Rob promised us a fantastic time and surely enough he kept his promise!!! like i said it was a MORNING to remember!!!!
A surprise family trip for our Father's 70th Birthday.... We could not have chosen a better morning for it! Amaxing flight not to mention the champagne breakfast at the Vineyard, I hope we didnt sing too much, thanks heaps for the Birthday cake. Dad loved it. Will certainly recommend to friends and colleagues and plan to come back again one day.
Hello from Tamworth Just wanted to send an email and a couple of pictures from our recent balloon ride with you! My mum and I had both been to the gold coast hinterland before, but if we had known how incredible the balloon ride was going to be we would have taken a ride on our first trip there and made this our second ride!!
Merry Christmas guys, mum and dad loved the gift voucher we gave them and went yesterday, they were over the moon. Not sure how you got them away from the champagne breakfast, sounded like they could have stayed all day. They reckon it's their best christmas present ever. thanks heaps
Cheers Hot Air, we loved it, see you next year for sure.
Fabulous birthday present from the family, the champagne went down a treat.
Hi I've been wanting to go hot air ballooning for years, we went last week and had the most amazing flight. Hope to do it again next time when we visit Gold Coast - bruce
Hi, thanks for the photos, the wife and I did the Flight and we have to say we had just a fantastic day, I just cannot say enough about the morning. We will be back up one day and we will Fly again. Please pass on our Thanks to all the crew at Hotair. (P.S. Breakfast was delicious and what a great place to eat)
What a lovely start to our year, we came flying with you and it was absolutely more than we expected and please thank Alan, what an interesting guy to talk to. Cheers
ello - it was beautiful, my girlfriend and me we love it
really, really, really great morning - tash and nathan
we took this tour, it was brilliant
good morning, thats what we are saying even now about our ride with you. We had such a good morning we have told everyone. We werent expecting the balloons to be as big and Alan was such a lovely pilot. We'll be telling everyone in southport about our morning that's for sure.
Hi, as you know this trip to Australia was the birthday celebration for our parents who were 60 years old and dreamed of being in a so wonderful land for a holiday together. The hot air ballooning trip was terrific and it was a most amazing one. We have the wonderful pictures of us to remember, wiht all your kind helps
we loooved it. i will nevvvver forget it
Just a quick note to say thank you very much for a great morning yesterday. I was amazed with the whole experience. All your staff were very polite, informative and notably very skilled. I was very impressed with this. The balloon experience itself was simply awesome. A big thank you to your fantastic team of people. I'll certainly be informing our friends of our great experience. Cheers, Michael
grrrrrrrrrrrrrr8t our balloon ride, we just needed more time to sip more bubbly
A very professional crew and friendly (even that early) made sure we were all very looked after. A great way to celebrate a birthday and my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. The best end was the magnificent HOT breakfast at O'Reilleys Vineyard - just a terriific combination and recommended to all if looking for something different. Cheers
It is not very often one receives such a pleasant surprise, your balloon landed on our farm, in our paddock. The team on the balloon have always been very considerate of our paddocks, gates etc and are a pleasure to work with, so we wish you every success with the ballooning and can quite cheerfully say, call again sometime! J & P, Farmers
I realise this is a little late but I have been meaning to send you a message, but as you know time slips away. I have to let you know how much we all enjoyed our Balloon flight on the 6th. It was absolutely wonderful. Mum and Dad were suitably impressed as it was something they would never have done of their own accord. We had great weather with a little low fog which made the views and camera shots really ‘speckie’. Breakfast was great and the birthday cake was a hit with Dad. I think he actually is an attention seeker at heart
sick moves team and i was amazed at jason our pilot skill - brilliant

I just wanted to tell you what a wonderful balloon ride we had on Weds.!!! It far exceeded any expectations that we had and really was like a dream come true!
