A hot air balloon flight over the Yarra Valley is a birds-eye view into this world famous wine region,
with breathtaking views, flowing hills and valleys, and large open spaces that come to life with the sunrise
and early morning. Hot air ballooning is certainly one of the best things to do in the Yarra Valley. Flying over
the beautiful farms and vineyards in a hot air balloon provides an amazing and unforgettable way to experience
the joys of nature.
Your experience will be followed by a delicious champagne breakfast at the fancy RACV Healesville Country Club,
the perfect end to a serene morning.

Brian and Riley were excellent in hosting us. Beyond Brian having a vast knowledge in piloting balloons, he did great in engaging us to keep us comfortable and at ease throughout the experience. Riley was well-versed in handling all logistical aspects of the flight and was able to give clear instructions so that we could help out in the pack up efficiently (highly recommended to try this out!).
A joy to witness, learn and partake in the entire experience beyond enjoying the mesmerising views of Yarra Valley.
In preparation, it would be best to wear closed-toe shoes that can take the morning dew and manure of the fields as recommended by the team. Use the toilets prelaunch before setting off for the launch site as there are no toilets till we're back. Wear gloves when cold and when packing up.

We had the utmost experience of a lifetime today being the 15/5/24. BRIAN AND THE STRINGER BOYS would have to be the most professional, organised, respectful customer focused and safety driven company I have ever come across. They not only went over the safety requirements with us several times but explained every little detail of how the balloon is set up from start to finish. But we were all participants in setting it up and packing it up, Brian commentated the flight very well and cracked quite a few jokes along the way . And when the flight had come to the end Brian made a 10 /10 touch down landing. And we were back on the bus and on our way back home oh and several photos were taken by an on board camera fitted to the outside of the balloon 🎈 just as a bonus extra. And the serenity of the yarra valley is just breathtaking you just can't get enough of it.
So my wife and I would personally like to thank Brian and the team for such a fantastic life experience and suggest that anyone reading this review grab yourself ,your partner, freinds and family tickets to hop on board and have the flight of your life.
Cheers
Craig and Natalie

From unforgettable to unforgettable with care: A hot air balloon ride with Brian’s team
This hot air balloon ride wasn't just amazing, it surpassed all my expectations. Brian and his team created memories that will truly last a lifetime.
The amount of work that goes into setting up a hot air balloon is impressive, and keeping it under control during the flight is an even bigger feat. Brian and his team made it look effortless, which speaks volumes about their expertise.
A special shoutout to Jason as well. He went above and beyond by picking us up extra early in the morning and ensuring we got back to the city conveniently after everything was packed up.
Overall, this experience was exceptional. Highly recommend!

We had an incredible experience with Brian on our trip. The ride was so smooth and we felt comfortable the whole time.
We also needed to reschedule 3 times and they had the best customer service accommodating us. Highly recommend!

Must do activity if you’re in Melbourne. Ground crew brothers were super nice & friendly. Pilot Brian was full of dad jokes.
