Reviews

This is a must do in Cairns - I absolutely just loved the gorgeous views!

It was an early start at 4.15am and I felt there was a bit of time wasted standing around in preperation. Seemed as though the flight was only 20 minutes and not the 30 as advertised. I guess weather conditions contributed to this but I felt a little hard done by. It was also disappointing that we had to pack up with the organisersm, which I wasn't prepared for.

The champagne breakfast, however was great and made up for some my disapointment.

Gotta say this tour is worth the price... watching the balloons getting inflated at dawn and then gently floating above the beautiful Atherton tablelands. Brilliant!
