The route
You will be transported to the launch site for your Melbourne balloon flight. Your balloon will fly over Melbourne’s parks, gardens and the Yarra River as the city comes to life. As your ball floats above Melbourne you’ll look down on some of the city’s famous sights including the Melbourne Cricket Ground and Melbourne Park. After the final landing and packing the hot balloon away, head back to the centrally located Pullman where you can then stay for your delicious breakfast.
Attention:
Balloon flights in Melbourne are weather dependent and your route will be determined by the winds. Your balloon may fly over Melbourne’s CBD. Alternatively, your Melbourne balloon flight may head over the inner suburbs, parks and gardens to discover why Victoria is labeled the Garden State.
