One Exhilaration Hot Air Balloon Experience - Wow! What an amazing hot air balloon ride Chris, Balloon Man, took us on! Beginning with the launch in the best spot through all the aerial views from East Melbourne to West Melbourne where we had a smooth landing. A must activity for anybody visiting Melbourne.

A balloon experience offering panoramic views of the city, nature, and the sea! - It’s been an incredible experience, rising quite high, moving up and down, looking every inch of Melbourne City! I was also very happy to be involved in everything from balloon preparation to cleanup! Thank you.

Hot air Ballooning over Melbourne - A once in a lifetime experience of hot air ballooning over Melbourne. Lead by the enthusiastic and informative Chris, we felt safe and comfortable as we floated up to 3000 m over the sights of Melbourne including the MCG, the Yarra, Fitzroy Gardens and Albert Park and landed over an hour and a half later in the leafy suburbs. It was fascinating seeing the balloon being inflated and how it ascended and then landed in a suitable spot. A thoroughly recommend this to anybody.

Amazing experience for my Mum's 70th birthday - We had an amazing flight over Melbourne's CBD with our pilot Chris, and co-hosted by the other Chris. Afterward we had an awesome champagne buffet breakfast at the Grand Hyatt with our ballooning group, and the other ballooning group. Our pilot Chris was an excellent host throughout the setup, flight, pickup and breakfast. Chris provided easy instructions, interesting facts, flew us safely, kept us entertained and made us feel comfortable and welcomed the whole time. Awesome activity to do for my Mum's 70th birthday.

Cherished memory for our family - An amazing and truly unique experience with the BalloonMan team, Chris and Chris. From take-off to landing, everything was handled with professionalism, and we felt completely safe in the hands of such experienced pilots. Chris was especially friendly, taking the time to chat with us, add humour throughout the morning, and make the whole experience personal. It was the perfect way to celebrate my mother-in-law’s 70th birthday. The buffet breakfast was delicious, complemented by BalloonMan champagne, and the entire morning is a cherished memory for our family.

Awesome hot air balloon adventure - A wonderful experience. Looked after by Chris and Richard from the pick up to the drop off. The views over the city were amazing and watching sunrise at 2500ft is an incredible sight. I would recommend anyone who is thinking about this to just do it!

5star Balloon ride - Weather may not have been perfect, but the experience was worth it. Thanks to Chris and Adrian for a wonderful balloon ride. Highly recommend to add on the champagne breakfast that we had at Grand Hyatt. We felt safe the whole time. Note: check start time and be at meeting point 30mins earlier. Timimg is around catching the sunrise PS there's a 5-10min voluntary help in packing the balloon. Everyone helped which made it faster to pack up
