Yarra Valley Balloon Flight at Sunrise

Melbourne, Australia

Greet the morning sun as you take flight over the Yarra Valley and its vineyards on a Yarra Valley hot air balloon flight. You'll fly for approximately one hour before completing the memorable experience of ballooning in the Yarra Valley with an optional sumptuous champagne breakfast at Rochford Wines.

Just 50 minutes from the Melbourne CBD lies the lush hillsides of the Yarra Valley. A place of diverse and rich history stretching back to the first settlers, The Yarra Valley is home to 90 vineyards and 35 wineries, many of which hold a reputation for creating world-class wines. The Yarra Valley is also renowned as being one of Victoria's largest tourist destinations. Ballooning over the Yarra Valley is a magnificent way to see the lush landscapes and vineyards of the Valley.

On your hot air balloon flight in the Yara Valley, the breeze will usher you along the corridors of grape vines and over the Yarra River as you take in the breathtaking views of mountains that surround the valley. You'll have the option to pre-book breakfast buffet which includes a choice of fruit, yogurt, cereal, muesli and a hot breakfast of bacon, eggs, hash browns, sausages, tomatoes, mushrooms, toast, tea and coffee, orange juice and Chandon champagne to celebrate your Yarra Valley balloon flight!

Excellent pilots, state of the art ballons, perfect views. You could offer a nicer breakfast or at least in a nicer atmosphere. Had to pay extra for the hot chocolate of my two small boys...

What a fantastic day. Whilst you are at the mercy of the weather we had a perfect day and the atmosphere continued with the breakfast in the winery and a great crew and piolet. If you were ever to go hot air ballooning the Global Ballooning tour over the Yarra Valleu would have to be the pick of the crop!

I will definitely not recommend this as the ballon does not fly high and only one miserable ballon is flying. After that, we still have to help to keep the ballon into the bag. The landing is terribly bad. We paid so much for this but it was not enjoyable at all. Not worth taking. The attitude of the crews are also not presentable.

WOW! Definitely a major highlight of our trip! The only bad part was finding out that 345 does exist in the AM! Everything was done perfectly! We were picked up at the hotel right on time, then drive out to the winery was quite nice. Our van was about the last one to arrive. We were checked in quickly, then transported to the launch site. There were 3 balloons that day, each holding 16 passengers. Weather was PERFECT! Our pilot, was quite a master at entertaining us as well as handling the balloon. We'd envisioned some tumbling or dragging when we landed as our pilot had told us of the prior day's flight. Conditions were perfect and he actually sat the basket down on the trailer! What a treat! Champagne was poured freely and breakfast was great and there was plenty of it! Kudos to everyone!

Everything was well organised from pickup to drop off at the hotel. Ride was fantastic and smooth! Champagne breakfast was good. Only adverse comment was some people talk too much on the ride, robbing others of experiencing peace and quiet up there!

When people ask me 'how was it' my only word is MAGICAL!!!! - I was amazed at how quiet and and peaceful it was when in the air. Because of the lack of wind, we were in the air for one and half hours - a bonus. It was well worth the 4.30am pick up from my hotel. The pilot and crew were very professional and informative and fun. Chandon champagne and a fabulous breakfast was waiting for us at Rochford Winery - an excellent end to the flight - I can now cross this off my list.

Balloon ride was excellent - great experience. Only negative was I did think the company could use a few extra staff to do the pack up rather then getting the customers to do so.

This is an experience that will stay with us forever. The view from the balloon is fantastic and looking at the scenery and clouds below us as we drift with the wind, we felt like we are walking on the clouds. Perhaps this is what being an angel will be like. A great out of this world experience.
