There’s nothing quite like the thrill and joy of a Sydney hot air balloon ride. If you haven’t yet experienced the excitement of soaring through the sky in a hot air balloon, there’s no better place to take part than in Sydney’s Camden Valley region.
Hot air ballooning tours are perfect for the more adventurous travellers or for anyone who is looking to get a break from the more traditional tourist activities in Sydney. Once you book a hot air balloon ride, you’ll find that the experience is absolutely exhilarating and unlike anything else!
The Camden Valley is located less than an hour from Sydney city centre, making it easily accessible for all kinds of visitors. You will be greeted by your professional pilot and crew, who will be available to answer any questions you have. Your pilot will also check the local weather conditions to determine the best launch site, depending on wind direction.
When you arrive at the launch site, you will enjoy a cup of coffee or tea to get the hot air balloon ride started properly. Your pilot and crew will begin setting up the balloon, and you can feel free to help if you’d like to do so. Or if you’d prefer to relax and enjoy the crisp morning air, you are more than welcome to do that as well.
When it’s time to take off, your hour-long ride will take you up into the air to experience travel in a way unlike any other. You’ll glide gently up into the sky, getting to a height of 2,000 feet or more.
As you cruise through the skies, you’ll enjoy the breeze of the fresh valley air while taking in the gorgeous landscape below. Our hot air balloon flights begin before sunrise, so you will be able to admire the sun rising over the valley as you gently soar high above the ground.
You’ll get the chance to float peacefully high above the air, admiring the gorgeous colours of the land below. The hot air balloons themselves are beautifully patterned, and you will enjoy the feeling of calmness that surrounds you as you soar through the air.
Sydney hot air ballooning will present you with views and landscapes that you may only get to experience once in your lifetime, so don’t forget to bring your camera with you. You won’t want to forget this incredible voyage, and you’ll be eager to share your story with friends and family back home. There will also be staff on board to professionally capture your experience, and you will have the opportunity to purchase the photos at the end of the ride.
Upon your return, you will enjoy a gourmet breakfast and champagne celebration at a local cafe in Camden, joined by your pilot and fellow guests. You’ll have the opportunity to discuss the sights and sounds you experienced during your ride and connect with other travellers. If you have any questions regarding hot air ballooning, your professional pilot can provide you with answers.
To cap off the experience, the pilot will award you with a personalised flight certificate to commemorate your hot air balloon flight. You’ll be able to take it home with you as a token of accomplishment from your sunrise sky ride and to remind yourself of the magnificent time you spent soaring over the Camden Valley.
