Come and join us for a sunrise balloon flight and watch as the parks, rivers and buildings fade into the distance, making way for the patchwork farmland of the Canterbury Plains, in view of the Southern Alps to the west and the endless blue of the ocean to the east. Once you are back on earth we will toast our adventure with a glass of champange and you will be awarded with a certificate.
Whether you are a visitor or local of New Zealand, the views on offer will take you to new levels of appreciation and awe of the mountains, city, ocean and plains. They say a picture paints a thousand words, and with the picturesque views from above, a balloon ride may leave you surprisingly lacking of words to describe your experience. Just don't forget your camera!
On the morning of your adventure we will pick you up from your accommodation and will take you to our launch site. For the next half an hour we will prepare the balloon for launch. Once the balloon is ready to be launched your pilot will go over a few safety instructions before boarding. When everyone is ready we will lift off and float through the sky. Hot air ballooning is a magical experience and the views will take your breath away.
Watch as the parks, rivers and buildings fade into the distance, making way for the patchwork farmland of the Canterbury Plains, in view of the Southern Alps to the west and the endless blue of the ocean to the east.
Once we have landed we will enjoy a celebratory glass of chilled champagne (or fruit juice) in a farmer's field. You will also get to take home a certificate.
