Description

Begin your adventure with a pre-dawn pickup from your accommodation. Head to the launch site and witness the impressive scene of hot air balloons being inflated. Once the balloon is ready, step into the basket with your experienced pilot. Feel the peace and serenity of floating above the rainforest-covered hills, mountains, and tablelands set against the stunning backdrop of the rising sun. Breathe in the fresh air, enjoy sweeping views of the Atherton Tablelands on one side, then look towards the coast and Great Barrier Reef. After landing, help fold up the balloon, have a laugh, and take some more photos. Then, come together with the pilot and ground crew for a light snack, chat, and toast the sensational flight experience with a glass of sparkling wine. After the flight, be dropped off at Cairns Aquarium. See Australia’s only 10-meter Deep Reef Tank, 360-degree Oceanarium, 20-meter underwater tunnel, mangrove boardwalk, and Australia’s largest freshwater exhibit.
