What an amazing experience it was to do this activity. Upon arrival we were greeted by the team and driven to the paddock where we were about to take off from. The entire process and methods were explained really well by Glen, he was a great orator and talked us through all the safety procedures. From a safety perspective as well it was very easy and calm, no adrenaline, just peaceful, even when you're up there. Thank you to the team Jacob, Liam and Glen. Highly recommended!

Our hot air balloon ride with Global Ballooning Australia was truly one of the most magical mornings of our lives! From the moment we arrived before sunrise, the team made us feel completely at ease and genuinely excited for what was to come. Watching the balloon inflate in the golden morning light felt surreal — and once we were in the air, the views over the Yarra Valley were absolutely breathtaking. A huge shoutout to our pilot Ronald, who was calm, funny, and made us feel completely safe throughout the flight. The entire ground crew was equally amazing — so friendly and passionate about what they do. This isn’t just an activity, it’s an experience that stays with you forever. Highly recommend!

Amazing float over the Yarra Valley for sunrise- it was my first time and such a great morning! I'd go again tomorrow if I could!

Unforgettable experience! And highly recommended. You can see really beautiful sunrise view through both the balloon flying process and at the start point. We got really nice photos and videos! And also, we experienced the whole process of flying the balloon. It was really fun!

We had the best time ever with Global Ballooning flying over the Yarra Valley. The whole tour was very organized and comfortable. We felt safe at all times and the staff was super friendly and motivated. The views over the valley were just incredible! We would 100% recommend doing a Hot Air Balloon Flight with Global Ballooning!

I celebrated my 50th birthday on the Zoncello Balloon with Global Ballooning and it was unforgettable! Floating peacefully at sunrise with breathtaking views over Victoria was magical. The crew were amazing and knowledgeable and supportive of all on board. Thank you for the wonderful memory. Cannot wait until new next ride.

My aunt, niece, and I had such an awesome time on a hot air balloon tour in Yarra Valley on a beautiful sunny day. Everything went super smoothly—from booking online to the actual flight—it was all perfect. Big thanks to Nick and Raine for being so friendly and making us feel totally comfortable throughout. And shoutout to Pilot Jacob, who did an amazing job with the takeoff and landing. Even my 74-year-old aunt, who’s pretty hard to impress, loved it! Raine and Nick took loads of great photos and videos for us to remember the day and share with friends and family. Honestly, a hot air balloon ride is something everyone should try at least once. Seeing the sunrise from up in the sky was just incredible!
