What you can expect
Rise above Melbourne on a one hour sunrise hot air balloon flight, floating peacefully over the city and bay as the day begins. Lifting off in the soft light of dawn, you will drift on the morning breeze with an experienced pilot at the burners, watching Victoria's capital wake up far below.
From high in the basket, follow the Yarra River as it meanders its way around the city, pick out the Australian Tennis Centre and take in the lush parks and gardens that sit in striking contrast to the Victorian architecture scattered throughout the streets. With selected Melbourne CBD hotel pickups included, it is an easy and memorable way to begin the day. Whether you are seeing the city for the first time or marking a special occasion, a sunrise flight offers a view of Melbourne that few travellers ever get to enjoy. Climb aboard, rise with the sun and watch the city wake beneath you in the golden light of early morning.
