HOT AIR BALLOONING

Let Raging Thunder introduce you to the safe and exciting sport of hot air ballooning in a spectacular dawn trip over the Cairns Highlands (also known as the Atherton Tablelands).

The Atherton tablelands provide the perfect weather conditions for Hot Air Ballooning and the view from your basket of rolling hills and winding streams is stunning.

Raging Thunder will pick you up from your Cairns accommodation at 4.00am for the 90-minute drive to the flight site. You will arrive just in time to see the balloons beings inflated. As the sun rises your pilots gently lift off and quietly glide the balloons over the panorama of the Cairns Highlands .

Your balloon flight is only the beginning of your adventure... After your magnificent 30 minute flight, sit down to a delicious Aussie champagne breakfast at the Mareeba Heritage Centre.

The tour returns to your Cairns accommodation at approx 10.00am.

Inclusions:

  • Exhilarating Balloon Flight
  • Experienced Balloon Pilots
  • Cross Country Balloon Chase
  • Delicious champagne breakfast
  • Balloon Flight Certificate
  • Help pack up the giant balloon
  • Return transfers

Also exclusive to Raging Thunder are their in-flight digital photo technology. The opportunity to have your photo taken whilst in-flight, high above the Atherton Tablelands in one of the majestic balloons is a moment to be treasured forever. Your photo is then available for purchase at breakfast.

Additional Costs:

  • An aviation levy is payable on the day of travel on all balloon flights.
