A magical experience
Wonderful experience with the Balloon Joy Flights team. Calm, beautiful still morning – early start – quickly away in Anton’s capable hands. Not one who is keen on heights, I was not concerned at any stage, was totally distracted by the calm peaceful space.
A very easy and knowledgeable person...
Graham Kerr is a very easy and knowledgeable person to be around and gave us all a great experience on the balloon flight. He and his wife made it all a great experience
This was the most fantastic experience...
Everything about the balloons were awesome!!.. Watching them fill up,…
V Harland, Australia
A must do ...
We couldn’t fault the professionalism and experience that this team displayed. And let’s face it, if you are going up so high, you really want that to make sure that you are safe. Graham (pilot) and Jan – who on our trip acted as ground crew.
