Description

Ballooning near Geelong, Victoria’s second - largest city, offers a spectacular mix of coastal and rural scenery. From the air, passengers enjoy views of rolling green hills, farmland, the winding Barwon River, and the sweeping coastline of Port Phillip Bay. On clear mornings, sights may extend to the You Yangs and out toward the ocean. Flights launch from various locations depending on wind conditions, including Geelong itself, Murgheboluc, Bannockburn, and across the Bellarine Peninsula. Each launch site provides a unique and memorable perspective of the region. Balloon flights operate year - round, weather permitting, with peak availability from November to March. It is an exceptional way to experience one of Victoria’s most diverse landscapes. Geelong is just over an hour’s drive from Melbourne, making it ideal for a day trip or a relaxing overnight stay in the Geelong and Bellarine region.

A Bucket List Experience I'll Never Forget!

Finally crossed this off my bucket list! What an incredible experience from start to finish. I expected a hot air balloon ride to be a little intimidating, but it turned out to be one of the most peaceful and calming experiences I've ever had. We felt completely safe the entire time and the spectacular views made it truly unforgettable. A huge thank you to Peter and Brad, who were professional, friendly, and made everyone feel relaxed and at ease from the moment we arrived. Watching the balloon being inflated before take-off was fascinating and getting to "help" pack everything away afterwards, was a fun way to finish the adventure and made us feel part of the whole process. If you've ever thought about doing a hot air balloon ride, don't hesitate - you won't regret it. An unforgettable morning with an amazing crew. Highly recommend!

Absolutely magical experience, loved every minute!

Absolutely magical experience, loved every minute. Was a little nervous beforehand but there was no need to be, the team seemed very experienced and watching the balloon get inflated was so cool that I forgot about the nerves! So beautiful floating above the trees, clouds and over Geelong then towards the Bellarine Peninsula back down over the river and paddocks before a very gentle landing. Thought it would be a once in a lifetime experience, but I’m already planning when I can go again.
