We love you Jay and Rob
Me and my partner had an incredible experience with Hot Air Balloon Brisbane! The balloon flight itself was breathtaking, but what truly made the morning special was our pilot Jay and our driver Rob. It was clear from the moment we met them that this is far more than just a job to them. Their passion, enthusiasm, and genuine love for what they do shone through in every interaction and made the entire experience feel personal and memorable. A special shout-out to Jay, who went above and beyond throughout the day. Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable about the ballooning experience, but he also took the time to offer fantastic advice and recommendations on the local area, including places to visit and things to do during our stay. His insights were invaluable and really helped us make the most of our time in the region. Jay and Rob's professionalism, friendliness, and dedication created an unforgettable experience from start to finish. If you're considering a hot air balloon flight, I couldn't recommend Hot Air Balloon Brisbane highly enough. Thank you both for an amazing morning and memories that will last a lifetime! See you guys again soon!!!! Luke and Emily
Response from the operator: Luke and Emily, what an incredible review – thank you! 🎈 We're absolutely delighted to hear that your morning with Jay and Rob was such a memorable one. It means so much to us when guests recognise the passion our crew brings to every flight, and your kind words perfectly capture what makes these experiences so special. Jay will be thrilled to hear that his local tips and recommendations helped you make the most of your time in the region, and Rob will love knowing he played such a big part in creating a fantastic start to your day. Together they make a pretty great team! 😊 From the breathtaking views to the laughs, stories and shared excitement along the way, we're so pleased your Brisbane ballooning adventure was one to remember. Thank you again for choosing to fly with us, and we'll be holding you to that promise of coming back! We can't wait to welcome you both aboard again for another unforgettable morning in the skies. 🎈🥂

WOW!
From start to finish the experience was excellent, from the friendly informative staff, the balloon ride was awesome, landing exciting, assisting with packing the balloon away. Wow. Then breakfast at O'REILLY'S, excellent and so much, wine tasting and the staff excellent service. The Alpacas 🦙 didn't expect to be leading and feeding OMG ours was called Santa. Thanks heaps for the best celebration of our 10th wedding anniversary.
Response from the operator: Thanks so much, Nancy! 🎈 We’re thrilled to hear your 10th wedding anniversary was such a special one – what a way to celebrate! From the exciting flight and smooth landing to breakfast at O'Reilly’s and meeting Santa the alpaca 🦙, it sounds like a morning full of surprises. The team will be over the moon to hear your kind words. Congrats again! 🥂✨

All great make sure you go on perfect weather day!
All good! Very customer focused! Cup of hot tea / coffee while waiting in bus at Canungra would be welcome. We had perfect weather which added hugely!
Response from the operator: Glad to hear the weather turned it on for you - it really does make those views pop 🌄 Thanks for the kind words! We'll pass on the tea and coffee suggestion for the Canungra wait - a warm cuppa might be just the thing on those cooler mornings ☕🫖

A wonderful experience
From start to finish the whole journey, views & experience was amazing. All Staff were very friendly, helpful, very professional and all round great. A very smooth flight & beautiful views. Breakfast at the O’Reillys vineyard & the alpaca experience was awesome. We purchased 2 lovely bottles of ‘Big Pete’s port “ from the winery 👌 Would highly recommend a trip in the Air balloons for a great life experience.
Response from the operator: Thanks for the wonderful recommendation, rosiee816. We're happy to hear you enjoyed your hot air balloon experience, including our unique breakfast venue at O'Reilly's Canungra Valley Vineyards, and of course the delightful furry friends at Mountview Alpaca Farm. We appreciate the 5 star review!

Why this scores 68
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Hot Air Balloon Flight Brisbane with Vineyard Breakfast: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Gold Coast.
How much does Hot Air Balloon Flight Brisbane with Vineyard Breakfast cost?
+
Prices start at $308 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Gold Coast usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Hot Air Balloon Flight Brisbane with Vineyard Breakfast take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Gold Coast is not rushed.
Is Hot Air Balloon Flight Brisbane with Vineyard Breakfast worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 23 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Gold Coast, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Hot Air Balloon Flight Brisbane with Vineyard Breakfast?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Hot Air Balloon Flight Brisbane with Vineyard Breakfast suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Hot Air Balloon Flight Brisbane with Vineyard Breakfast?
+
Around 8 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Gold Coast can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Gold Coast and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Hot Air Balloon Flight Brisbane with Vineyard Breakfast start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Gold Coast within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Gold Coast?
+
On Outty we rank every Gold Coast experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include 2 Hour Ultimate Learn to Surf Adventure, Gold Coast Whale Watching Cruise, Mount Tamborine Wine Tasting Tour from Brisbane or the Gold Coast. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Gold Coast?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Gold Coast?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
