Very excited to have the very first hot air balloon experience in my life! We are so lucky to see the clear sky and cute kangaroos hopping on the ground during the journey. All staffs are so professional!

The view was magnificent. The guides were very friendly and very interactive. Thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Perhaps this was the best thing we did on Cairns

We throughly enjoyed our hot air ballooning experience. The guides were very helpful and the pilot was very experienced. We enjoyed a very good view and also saw the kangaroos from the top. They looked so small. You bus picked us up from the hotel and dropped back on time. We are very happy that we decided to go for the hot air ballooning experience.

From the driver who transported us (He was a very friendly and gave us pointers along the way on things to do while in the area) to the balloon experience was perfect. The ride and weather was outstanding. July 5th, 2019 was one on the highlights of our trip. 100% recommend to anyone thinking about this company.
