A bit oricey but definitely worth it. Seeing the Whitsundays from above is a must, or if you don't have time for a full day tour to the islands, do consider this. One of the highlights of our trip!

It was my first time riding in a hot air balloon. Due to language issues, I couldn't understand the detailed explanations, but I was able to ride without any particular problems. I was informed that photos would be charged, but they shared many photos with me via email for free. They took so many wonderful photos, making it a great memory. The basket was sturdy, and perhaps because it was moving, I didn't feel any fear at all even when looking down from a high altitude. When I rode at the end of November, it was a bit chilly. Thanks to the heat from the hot air balloon's flame, my head got hot, so I think it's a good idea to have a hat. Sunglasses were not particularly necessary. The plan information stated that bringing cell phones was not allowed, but the pilot didn't say anything in particular, and all the other participants brought their cell phones.

The activity started promptly, and was handled professionally by the company. Our pilot Eddie Saunders, who I found out was one of the best hot air balloon pilots in the whole of Australia, was able to give us a smooth flight over Melbourne CBD. It wasn't scary at all! The passengers were also given the chance to help set up the balloon before the flight, and deflate/pack up the balloon afterwards. We also had the chance to go inside the balloon before it fully deflated after the flight! In addition, the breakfast at Pullman By the Park (also the meeting point) was amazing as well, and a good way to celebrate a wonderful flight!
