Rise with the sun on a hot air balloon flight over the Hunter Valley, Australia's premier wine region, with the multi-award-winning team at Balloon Aloft. Your morning begins at sunrise at Peterson House in Pokolbin, where you can help assemble and inflate the balloon before lifting off into the early light. Once airborne, you drift high above the fields, valleys and vineyards of Pokolbin, Lovedale, Rothbury or Broke, depending on the wind on the day, and see the wine country from a completely new angle. Digital in-flight photography is included, so you can keep the views long after you land. Because the balloon comes down at different spots across the Hunter Valley, a transfer brings every passenger from the landing site back to the original meeting point at Peterson House. The morning finishes with a gourmet breakfast and a sparkling wine tasting at the well-known Peterson House winery and restaurant. Balloon flights depend on the weather and can be cancelled at short notice, and the basket is compact, so all passengers stand for the whole flight.
