Self Drive Brisbane Classic Ballooning & Vineyard Breakfast
What your day looks like
Our professional tour guides will deliver you to the launch site from the meeting point at Nerang or Canungra pre-dawn for you to witness the impressive scene of balloons being inflated - once inflated, they stand taller than a ten-storey building. When the balloon is ready, step into the basket with your experienced pilot; feel the peace and serenity of floating above the countryside, see the rolling hills and open fields, set against the stunning backdrop of the rising sun. There is nothing in the world like the feeling of floating gently above the earth. Breathe in the fresh air, enjoy sweeping views of the famous Hinterland and Scenic Rim on one side, then look towards the coast to see the skyline dotted with towering buildings - it's the best of both worlds! Our very experienced pilots will slowly guide the balloon down to the landing point, where the fun continues, we all pitch in and fold up the balloon itself, have a laugh, and take some more photos. Finally, we head to our exclusive boutique vineyard for a delicious hot breakfast, a continental buffet, and toast the sensational flight experience with a glass of sparkling wine.

- Watch giant balloons come to life before sunrise
- Float gently above rolling hills and open fields

The journey, in full
Capture incredible bird’s eye view photos and revel in the sunrise as you float above the beautiful countryside in the peace and serenity of a hot air balloon.

After we gently touch back down, you’ll be driven a short distance to our exclusive vineyard and treated to a delicious spread of fresh pastries and fruits, sizzling bacon and eggs, plus cereals, juices, and of course, your glass of bubbles to toast the incredible morning!
