Review for: 60 Minute Flight without Breakfast

It was a once in a lifetime experience.. Ben, our Baloon flight captain was outstanding. It was a great site to go Balooning, mesmerising to see the sun rise and the beautiful meadows. Totally worth it. It was so pleasant, serene and quiet up in the air 5000ft above the ground. We could see the gold coast and Brisbane skyline. it was indeed a 7 star experience. the pick up was on time and the coach was comfortable. the whole flying experience was top notch.

Thank you, Paco. This was a great flying experience. I was also very lucky to see two kangaroos jumping on the grass from the sky. And followed up this great journey was a fantastic breakfast buffet. This is definitely a highly recommended tour.

We agreed to pick you up at the hotel entrance at 02:55. We arrived at the hotel entrance at 02:45. The car arrived earlier. The driver was Gary, who was very friendly, polite and enthusiastic. It took about an hour and a half to arrive. It was very smooth. It was the first hot air balloon to take off that day. The weather was very good on 2025/1/28, so we saw the sunrise smoothly. After the ride, we took a car back to the five-star hotel in the city for breakfast, which lasted for an hour. During the meal, a glass of champagne was served. After the meal, the original car was taken back to the pick-up hotel. It takes about 7 hours to participate in this activity (02:45-09:45). The reception staff throughout the process were very good, kind and friendly. I highly recommend it. .

It is a very worthwhile trip. The tour guide explains carefully and kindly. Although you have to get up very early, it is very convenient to have a driver to pick you up at the hotel. It takes about an hour to go up the mountain. On the way, you will stop in a small town to use the toilet. The weather is basically good. It’s not too cold and the wind is not strong. The hot air from the hot air balloon can even make people feel very hot. It’s very enjoyable to watch the sunrise and the beautiful scenery in the air. The pilot will tell you when he sees a kangaroo or a cow. If the weather is good, you can even fly. For more than an hour, the tour guide will take photos for each group of guests to commemorate. There will also be an aerial camera to help you take photos during the flight. The photos will soon be sent to your mailbox for you to download. It is very fulfilling to help collect the hot air balloon after the flight, and you will also be awarded certificate, and then go down the mountain to take you to the Star Hotel for a buffet breakfast. The trip ends around ten o'clock, it's perfect👍🏻👍🏻Recommended

Because we live in Surfer's Paradis, the hotel pick-up time is 3:20. It takes about an hour to get to the take-off point, and there will be a restroom stop in the middle, which is very convenient and considerate. The driver is an old man who is very funny. After arriving, the hot air balloon was very big and could carry 24 people plus 1 person driving Paco. After it ascended, it was actually very stable and there was no sense of shaking. I was very lucky to see the sunrise and the beautiful scenery, looking down from a high place. , you can even see kangaroos jumping around on the grassland, and cattle and sheep walking around, which is very interesting; the entire ride takes about an hour, and I think it is quite worthwhile. The buffet breakfast at Star Hotel's Harvest buffet has pretty good dishes, you can try it.

Its a bucketlist item i wanted to do since long. Very well arranged by klook, picked up early at 3:30 from the hotel as we have to reach the spot,ready the balloon before sunrise. Once up in the air, the rider Paco was extremely knowledgeable and the flight was quite relaxing and smooth. Lovely breakfast arranged at the star hotel. Dropped back at hotel by 10:30 am

I bought a Gold coast Hot Air Balloon as a birthday present for my boyfriend. It was a wonderful trip for us. The company has a bus to pick us up and send us home. The company has good management. The scenery is very good. The experience we had was amazing. I recommend everyone I know to try it once.
