Hot Air Ballooning (30Min Flight) by Raging Thunder Adventures

Tour Itinerary

04:30 Pick Up from your accommodation and travel to Mareeba.

Climb aboard and experience the thrill of ballooning, with spectacular trip over the Cairns Highlands.

As the sun rises our pilots gently lift off and glide over the tropical farmland and woodland eucalypt forests. By coincidence, the picturesque Mareeba Valley is the ideal location for ballooning, protected from the tropical winds and rain by the Kuranda Range, allowing us to fly more days of the year than any other location in Australia.

Our balloons rise effortlessly to heights of up to 4,000 ft above sea-level, giving you spectacular 360 degree views without feeling like you are even moving. After landing, our guests are invited to assist us with packing up these giant balloons, before the short drive to breakfast and then back to Cairns.
