  • Burning vomit boring balloon

    We started off by taking a 1hr journey away from Port Douglas to Mareeba, upon arrival we disembarked in an industrial zone next to what smelled like a sewer where my wife and I began to vomit from the overpowering smell. We decided to continue with the hot air balloon as we had already wasted 1hr of our holiday on a one way trip to Mareeba, We climbed into the basket of the Hot air balloon along with 16 (yes you heard right) other people and we took off. I tried to shield myself from the burner with my hat as the pilot took the balloon up, it feels like you are getting Sunbury the whole time. The scenery was farm land and mountains. We were in Port Douglas where there is reef and rain forest which is what we expected to see from the balloon. The landing was ok, and then we helped pack up the balloon and the gave us some cheap champagne. Not worth it for $340pp
