Had the best smooth journey up in the air. Best team down at Camden who make the experience 100% more awesome! We had the best pilot Steve, who was awesome throughout the whole journey, together with Dino and Jeremy. Whole experience was fun and safe. Highly recommend the Camden team and view.

I would highly recommend this experience.

Had an amazing experience with Balloon Aloft this morning. What a fabulous way to kick off a day. The team were thorough, professional but friendly and welcoming from start to finish. Everything is included in your initial package so all you have to do is lean back and enjoy the spectacular scenery. Would definitely recommend to friends and family.

An experience never to be forgotten.
Just watching the world below with no windows and the ability to reach out to the clouds was unimaginable.
A word of advise, if it has been raining in the previous days wear comfortable waterproof boots and perhaps take a light jacket or puffer vest. When the wind picks up it can get a tad cold at times.
Otherwise very comfortable ride with funny, professional and knowledgeable staff.
Thank you Balloon Aloft.

I had booked the VIP experience with the Balloon Aloft team prior to the Sydney lockdown. I had planned to propose to my partner and the team went truly above and beyond to make it a special and memorable time. They where very flexible with moving the booking around to accommodate the lockdown and my dates.
The experience started off with a check-in with CJ. He was excited even though it was 5am and really set the tone for the rest of the morning. We had Jacob as our pilot and Neil as the ground crew for our private ride. Both where fantastic. Jacob had called me the night prior to discuss where
