As I've never been able to ride in a balloon in Japan, I didn't know what to expect. I thought it would be scary! But as I saw the balloon come to life and slowly rise up from the ground, I felt something I hadn't experienced before. The feeling of slowly floating off the ground and moving through the sky was like sucking in a breath of untasted air. Because it was winter, there was a little fog on the ground which made for fantastic scenery. The weather was great, and we were lucky enough to see the sunrise! Even after we landed, I had fun cleaning and packing the balloon. It was a lot of fun, and I will recommend to my family and friends. When I go to Cairns next, I want to do it again.

In July, I went with my partner. In the magic hour around the beautiful morning's sunrise, you can fully enjoy your flight and the fun of watching the other balloons wander through the sky. You also get to help pack the balloon. I definitely recommend it! Though it is a little hard getting up at 3 o'clock for a 4 o'clock pickup, you can take a nap in the bus as it travels to the takeoff location.

The feeling of this lazy space is something I could do enjoy every day. Drifting gently with the breeze and talking with the balloon pilot made it such a peaceful time. I was happily surprised that we could see the kangaroos below us.

It was a safe and stable flight. There was some cloud cover, but as it hadn't rained I had decided to go hope for the best. We had to wait a little in the morning for the winds to calm, so the driver moved the bus so we could see local wallabies and animals while we waited. The weather wasn't spectacular, but the pilot's commentary and talk made sure the flight wasn't boring. It was a wonderful experience, and I would recommend sharing it with someone.
