Tour Description

Gold Coast Classic Balloon Flight with Vineyard Breakfast + Indoor Skydiving Experience

Enjoy a full morning of adventure with a Gold Coast hot air balloon flight followed by an indoor skydiving session at iFLY Surfers Paradise!

Hot Air Balloon Experience

This Gold Coast hot air balloon flight takes you across the peaceful Hinterland as the sun rises, giving you clear views of rolling hills, open fields and the Scenic Rim. Your morning starts before dawn as you head to the launch site to watch the balloons stand tall and lift into the sky.

Once you land, you will visit a boutique vineyard for a hearty hot breakfast, a continental spread and a glass of sparkling wine. You can also walk around the grounds, meet the alpacas and enjoy your free digital photo pack.

Indoor Skydiving Experience

Your day continues with indoor skydiving at iFLY. This session is suitable for all ages from three years and above. The controlled wind tunnel gives you the feeling of free fall without boarding a plane, making it ideal for families, beginners and anyone curious to try something new. The full session runs for ninety minutes and is held right in the centre of Surfers Paradise.

Why book this tour?

This hot air balloon and indoor skydiving package includes return coach transfers, expert commentary, wine tasting at the vineyard and a commemorative flight certificate.
