We had the most fortunate experience with Hot Air Balloon Gold Coast! Huge thank you to Angie and Jay for making the morning so special. Jay, our pilot, was so knowledgeable about the area, ballooning and answered all our questions with so much detail. I was honestly nervous for my first time, but his funny & friendly vibes made everyone feel at ease. Knowing he has 3 decades of experience flying balloons worldwide gave us even more confidence! Rob & Wayne, who were part of Jayโ€™s team, were also extremely friendly and brought even more fun to the whole experience. It was such a surreal experience floating in the sky. We didnโ€™t feel the ascent or descent at all - it just felt like we were floating in the air with the most perfect sunrise views. It was so peaceful, and the landing was unbelievably smooth too. I got to share this with my husband, which made it even more special. Definitely recommend this unforgettable experience to share with your loved ones ๐Ÿ˜Š๐ŸŽˆ

An absolutely unforgettable experience from start to finish! The whole Hot Air Balloon Brisbane & Gold Coast team were fantastic, but we especially want to call out how extremely good our tour driver Selena was โ€” friendly, professional, and made the early start so enjoyable.
Our balloon pilot Stuart was incredible as well, making us feel completely safe while sharing great insights throughout the flight. Drifting over the scenery at sunrise was truly magical and something weโ€™ll never forget.
To top it all off, the breakfast afterwards was amazing โ€” delicious food in a beautiful setting, the perfect way to finish the morning.
Highly recommend this experience to anyone considering it. Worth every cent!
