Touring Options

45 – 60 Minute Balloon Flight Adventure Tour

You will be picked up by the Outback Ballooning crew, approximatley one and a half hours before dawn. You will travel along the Great Western Highway for 30 to 45 minutes heading to Roebuck Plains Station.

Watching the balloon fill with air you start to appreciate its size. With the balloon ready to go, we climb into the balloon basket. The morning sun promising to peep over the horizon at any moment, off we go.

The balloon floats so gently that if you closed your eyes you would not know you were flying. First we stay low then steadily climb higher to appreciate the vast 280 square kilometre open grass plains of the station, with the Outback bush and Roebuck Bay beyond.

With red dirt, endless flat plains, and cattle on one side, and Roebuck Bay and the ocean on the other, it is an inspiring environment. Kites, bush turkeys, the occasional brolga and wallabies are common sights on the short drive to our breakfast sites either on the bay or under the ti trees.

The gourmet picnic breakfast is the perfect way to complete your adventure. Your crew will then return you to your accommodation saying their farewells and presenting you with a commemorative flight certificate.

Chase and Breakfast Tour

This tour does not include a balloon flight.

The Chase and Breakfast Tour departs at the same time as the 45 to 60 Minute Balloon Flight Adventure Tour.

You will be present for the inflation of the balloon, and will be able to wave the ballooners into the morning sky. With our experienced ground crew, you will travel in the vehicle along remote bush tracks “chasing” the balloon. There are great photographic opportunities of the hot air balloon, surrounding wildlife and scenery.

Once the balloon flight is complete, you will greet the passengers on the ground as they land. Once reunited with the ballooners, you will all have the gourmet picnic breakfast together.
