Balloon Flight Melbourne
Duration:
An Aerial City Like No Other
There’s nothing quite like watching Melbourne wake up from the quiet calm of a hot air balloon. At sunrise, the city is bathed in soft light, the Yarra River glistens, and iconic landmarks like the MCG, Australian Open Tennis Centre, and Royal Botanic Gardens slowly come to life.

It is really had a wonderful moment for air ballon via Liberty ! Highly recommend!!!







Our flight was led by Dan and Rob, who were not only punctual and professional but also absolutely hilarious. From the moment we arrived, they created a fun and relaxed atmosphere while still ensuring every step of the process—from setting up the balloon to landing—was safe and well-organized.
The views over Geelong were simply breathtaking. During the flight, Dan and Rob kept us informed with clear instructions and commentary, helping everyone feel comfortable and at ease throughout the journey.
This was truly a memorable way to celebrate a special occasion, and I can’t recommend it enough. If you're looking for a unique, bucket-list experience, this is it!

The staff are so nice and experienced. Detailed explanation let me enjoy more.
Recommend to others!



Would definitely use this company to try the Geelong trip next time!!

Brian and Stephen were both friendly and professional, making us feel safe every step of the way. 100% would recommend to everyone!
We had a lovely experience flying with Liberty balloon. Had a smooth flight with our pilot Dan who also kept us entertained throughout the flight & gave us proper instructions. Steven did a good job with helping us take off &land , and pack up the balloon.☺️
I’ve been in Melbourne less than 2 weeks and this has been a memorable experience I would recommend to all.
The dynamic duo of Dan and Steven were great, friendly and professional. I’m sure the rest of the team follow suit.
What an unforgettable experience! At 70 years old, I finally checked a lifelong goal off my bucket list, and I couldn’t have asked for a better company to do it with than Liberty Balloons.
The flight across Melbourne was absolutely breathtaking—the views were exceptional, and seeing the city from above at sunrise was simply magical. Dan, our pilot, was outstanding. Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable, but he also made sure our safety was the top priority, which made me feel completely at ease. His professionalism and passion for ballooning truly shone through.
Our spotter Thor was there when our landing spot was decided to get the basket and balloon repacked.
From start to finish, the experience was seamless, well-organized, and one I will cherish forever. If you’ve ever thought about taking a hot air balloon ride, don’t hesitate—Liberty Balloons is the way to go! Highly recommend!








Although I was nervous to begin with, they did a great job at keeping us involved in the process so we had nothing to worry about.
Overall, would definitely return and next time with more people!

Pete and Dart were the best hosts, they kept us well informed as well as entertained the whole time.
Top blokes who seem to love what they do and we got to be apart of it all.










Definitely worth it.



We flew over Geelong and over the water, saw the incredible sunrise and landed in a farm with cute cows :)
Had a great first ever hot air balloon experience.
Also I had amazing time with my bestie in the third country, appreciate the team who made us the best day in 2024! Thank you :)

Thank you Liberty and Find your Guide.
Super


Highlight of our stay


Very professional and our pilot nick was very professional and the team.
Will do it again and happy flying with liberty hot air balloon! Welldone team!







I definitely will recommend to friends who will come Melbourne!
Peter & Paul were great, very professional, made for a fun experience. Would fly with again, cheers!

I would recommend that maybe in future it would be nice if the crew can take few photos from every angle while the passengers are still in the basket either before take off or after landing but before deflating the balloon. We pay so much money and with the cancellation etc it would be nice to have a dream pic done. I was quite disappointed that I didnt have any pic with my son with the balloon and basket as I was really looking forward to that as this was meant to be for Mother’s Day and with the cancellation we had to wait quite sometime.
Other than that everything else was very nice. Even the breakfast and champagne after the flight was great.
