Highlights
This famous Victorian winery region is a leisurely 50-minute drive from Melbourne’s CBD and has more than 80 vineyards dispersed throughout, which means you’ll have plenty to see from the sky-high vantage point of a hot air balloon. Let the breeze usher you along the corridors of grapevines and over the Yarra River as you lose yourself in the breathtaking views of mountains, vineyards and maybe even spot some kangaroos!

What To Bring
Ballooning is an interactive experience and guests will be encouraged to assist with the set up and pack away of the balloon. It is an active morning outdoors, so wear clothes that can get stained or dirty.
Wear clothes suitable for hiking, including sturdy shoes, warm socks and a cap, plus sunglasses if you wish.
Meeting before sunrise so depending on the time of year and weather, it can be cold.
Generally, it will not be any colder in the air during the flight than on the ground, so wear layered clothing that can be removed as the day warms up.
The burners radiate heat so it is recommended to wear a hat. The burners can sometimes drip water mixed with Carbon. GBA will not be responsible for clothing that is stained or damaged.
Your feet can get wet and cold in the early morning dew; closed toe shoes are recommended and a change of socks.
High-heeled shoes and open toe shoes, such as thongs are NOT suitable.
Bring a camera to capture stunning photos on your flight!
