Hot Air Balloon Ride Cairns Australia
My wife and I departed Cairns in the early am, rode on a tour bus headed west to Mareeba where we found our pod of 5 hot air balloons warming up and inflating for a 30 minute sunrise journey. It was so neat to take off at sunrise, ride in a hot air balloon carrying 20 passengers and one pilot, rising over 2,000 feet and floating over farmland (paddocks) and forests (brush). We saw all sorts of wild critters, including Kangaroo. I took GoPro video which I will edit and post of YouTube sometime soon. The weather was cloudy above, but we had good visibility of the ground at all times. It was a little bit scary, the landing bumpy, but overall the hot air balloon ride was HUGE fun! Going on a hot air balloon ride has been on my wife's bucket list forever, so that's checked off now, but flying with the guys at hotair.com.au/cairns was so much fun we would go again in a heartbeat!

A Hot Air Balloon Ride over the Atherton Tablelands, Cairns, Australia
When we heard that there were hot air balloon rides over the Atherton Tablelands, we knew we just had to jump at the chance to take this trip. Taking a hot air balloon ride was always a bucket list item for us and we both knew it was probably a once in a lifetime trip.
We went with Raging Thunder and they were absolutely amazing (promise this isn't and ad hahah!) and highly recommend to anyone that's visiting - or even lives in - Cairns.
