Imagine for a minute the stillness of early morning. The earth is still sleeping and you’re on your way to an adventure sure to stir your soul. Maybe the sun will rise just as you’re launching on an amazing hot air balloon ride over Cairns. This breathtaking vista only gets better as you glide over the mysterious Atherton Tablelands and wherever else the wind wants to take you this morning. You’re almost sure to see luscious parks and gardens, sleepy little towns and countryside of varying terrains as you float by.
Your morning of serenity begins with a safety briefing with your pilot and then it’s off to the launch site where you can help prepare the balloon for lift off if you like. And a mere 30 minutes later, you’ll have a magnificent bird’s eye view of the awakening world. You’ll spend about an hour in the air before drifting slowly back down to earth. Hope your morning adventure has worked up your appetite because you’re about to enjoy a sumptuous champagne breakfast with your fellow adventurers. Before you leave, you’ll receive a hot air ballooning certificate and then it’s back to your accommodations via Kuranda.
