Go Ballooning is a family-run business that strives to provide high-quality customer experience and create unforgettable memories. The company's basket is six meters long, leaving passengers plenty of room to take their own photos and enjoy the view. Go Ballooning operates Australia's only basket with doors. This means passengers no longer need to climb over the basket to enter, and wheelchair users can also fly. Guests will also receive a photo and movie package at the end of their flight.

Our bus will pick guests up around 3:30am to 4:30am (depending on the time of year) at a given pick up location (these details are sent via SMS the night before their flight). Guests will be driven to the take off site. The in-air flight time is approximately 45 minutes to an hour. We fly over the Gold Coast city or the Gold Coast hinterland, depending on the wind pattern. At the end of some flights, guests will have the option of participating in our 'pack up experience' where they can walk inside our balloon, take photos, and then help pack it up. Guests will be dropped back to the pick up location between 6:30am and 7:30am.

We absolutely loved our balloon experience with these guys. They messaged a day early and offered us to come early as the weather didn't look good for our booked day. They helped us make changes so we could do that and glad we didn't because the weather on our original day was terrible. The drive to and from the launch site was good fun- Rob was very professional and informative. Once at the launch site we watched the balloon fill up and Johan gave us the instructions and away we went. He was a vibe and made the flight more enjoyable with his information and friendly vibe. Highly recommend these guys for a wonderful flight experience. 5 stars 🌟

Absolutely spectacular flight - Murray was a fantastic Captain - fun, entertaining, and gave us over an hour of beautiful (and high) flying fun over the hinterlands. Incredible views and a beautiful sunrise (actually saw it rise three times)! We felt safe, well taken care of, learned and laughed alot too. The adventure was doorstep to doorstep service (and we recommend the breakfast too). We highly recommend this experience!

Really lovely experience - so calm, slow and gentle. I never realised how massive the balloons are until we walked towards them. Recommend the tour.

Everyone from this little business is amazing! The bus driver was fun, the balloon pilot was energetic and buzzing, the communication was enjoyable and precise via text. The experience of ballooning was calm and wonderful. The upgrade with breakfast was worth it.
