Gold Coast

Every summer vacation, my family and I take a trip. This year, during the booking period, we happened to watch a TV program about Australia, so we decided on Australia's Gold Coast. I also wanted to experience a hot air balloon ride, so I booked one through Klook. Although the pickup was quite early in the morning, they arrived at the hotel right on time. There was a restroom break on the way to the plateau, and as we got closer, a DVD played explanations and注意事项 (important information/precautions) in English, Chinese, and Japanese inside the vehicle, which made my excitement level reach its peak. We slowly floated up into the crisp, silent air of dawn, truly 'wherever the wind blew,' and were able to watch the sunrise from the horizon during our hour-long aerial stroll. Upon landing in the pasture, we were greeted by grazing cows. It was a precious experience that's hard to come by in Japan, as we helped the approximately 20 participants and the Hot Air Balloon staff waiting at the landing spot fold and pack up the hot air balloon, and enjoyed sparkling wine.

Our first time riding a helicopter, and honestly, what an unforgettable experience. 🚁🥹 It was a mix of excitement and nervousness at first, but once we were up in the air and saw everything from a completely different perspective, it was all worth it. There’s something so surreal about looking down and realizing how beautiful everything is from above. 🩶

Highly recommend this hot air balloon experience! 🎈 We even had the chance to take photos inside the hot air balloon and help pack it away after the flight, which made the experience even more memorable. The pilot was very experienced, friendly, and shared lots of interesting information throughout the journey. Our package also included a delicious breakfast at the Sheraton Grand Hotel. They even dropped us off there after the flight and kindly helped us book a Grab back to our hotel. It was a wonderful and well-organised experience from start to finish. Definitely worth it!

The weather is very good for flying. The piolt flied very well. However, you could see hibuling, sunrise, but no gold coast.

Waking up before dawn, I thought to myself, "Is it really worth it?" The moment the hot air balloon took off, there was only one answer: absolutely worth it! So incredibly worth it! After the flight, there's a delicious breakfast, wine tasting, and you even get to feed alpacas. If you're also looking for an experience that offers: ✔️ One early morning for a lifetime of memories ✔️ Collecting beautiful daytime and sunrise views all at once ✔️ Enjoying fine wine, delicious food, and adorable alpacas all in one go The only downside is... after experiencing this once, all other trips start to feel ordinary.🤣
