Itinerary
Before sunrise, we will pick you up from your hotel to travel to the take-off point in the desert – not more than a 45-minute drive from the city to start your Ballooning journey. Once you arrive to the takeoff location you will be welcomed with refreshment coffee, tea and water. Then enjoy watching our ground crew will be preparing the balloon envelopes and baskets. After a quick safety briefing, you will gather around your basket while your Pilot begins the thrilling process of inflation. You will climb into the basket and before you know it, you will begin to peacefully float off the ground and ascend into the sky. It’s time to fly! Following our staff's instructions, you get safely tucked into the basket and the ascend starts. The journey to 4000 feet in the air is peaceful and exhilarating at the same time. You have to actually be there to feel it! The drive to the location is approximately 45 minutes and the same for the return. Customers will have free time after landing.

About Dubai
Dubai rises from desert and Gulf shore as a city of soaring towers, vast malls and beaches, with older trading quarters strung along its creek.
The Burj Khalifa, built to be the tallest building in the world, soars above Downtown, where the Dubai Fountain dances on a lake at its feet and the Dubai Mall spreads out beside it. Along the coast, the sail-shaped Burj Al Arab, the palm-shaped island of Palm Jumeirah and the towers of Dubai Marina define a skyline raised within living memory.
Top-ranked sights in Dubai: Burj Al-Arab Jumeirah, Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Marina.
