HOT AIR BALLOONING

We can do a scenic Drakensberg flight from Champagne Valley , close to The Nest Hotel 

or Drakensberg Brewery

All the balloons launch at dawn so either you have to get up at “sparrows” or you need to find accommodation close by, we can advise you on that. The balloon flights include coffee and biscuits before the flight, champagne or fruit juice afterwards, and breakfast back at the launch site. The flight itself is about 45 minutes to an hour.

Champagne Valley balloon is R 3650 per person sharing.

Hot Air Ballooning – The important Stuff 

  • When: Sparrows, all the flights are at dawn so think about staying over somewhere.
  • How many in one basket: From 3 to 9 (including the pilot, he really needs to be there!)
  • How far in advance do I need to book? As much as possible, at least two weeks.
  • Is there an age limit? Children under 10 must be accompanied by an adult, no children under 4 unless an exclusive family package.
  • Is there a weight limit? Yes – 125 kg
