Hello! We are Go Wild Ballooning
About

Go Wild Ballooning was established in 1989 by the Fraser brothers who pioneered the first hot air balloon flight in the Yarra Valley from the family vineyard ‘Tarraford’ located near Yarra Glen. A short 40 minute drive from Melbourne CBD, Yarra Valley hot air balloon rides offer spectacular views of the Yarra River below, mountain ranges, vineyards, the Melbourne CBD skyline and distant views of Port Phillip Bay. Our sunrise hot air balloon flights can offer these amazing views and more in a tranquil atmosphere, this experience is like no other. Melbourne’s Yarra Valley is surrounded by mountain ranges that provide us with cool, stable conditions at dawn, perfect for hot air ballooning. This famous wine region has cemented itself on the world stage as a major tourism destination show casing award winning wines, heritage accommodation, cafe’s, restaurants, breweries and distillaries. Complimented with the superb local produce and delicacies, the Yarra Valley is also a foodies favourite destination. Our 20 year association with the renowned Chateau Yering Hotel, our meeting point and preferred accommodation & breakfast venue is clear testament to the dedicated service we offer our customers. You deserve the very best.

This is one kind of life time experience you need to have. Hot air ballooning over Yarra Valley early in the morning to witness sunrise is one of the most unforgettable experience I ever had. Go Wild Ballooning is so expert and their service is super friendly. And don't forget they have good discounts too. They will give you a proper guidance before the flight and after the flight they will offer you a certificate too. And you can engage in pre and after flight to help the crew to make the balloon too. The day I went was not a sunny day so I couldn't witness the sunrise properly. But the view was so worth the money. Don't forget to check their site to grab some amazing deals they have. Witness this life time experience.

Loved the experience and it is nothing short of magical! It was totally mesmerising and would highly recommend to fly with them. Once in a lifetime experience! The flights could be cancelled due to unsuitable weather conditions but they do mention that beforehand.

We booked this as a part of my husbands 40th birthday celebrations and I’m so glad we did! We were lucky enough to get a beautiful, clear morning and the whole experience was just incredible. Our pilot, Mark was extremely knowledgeable and the ground staff, Storm & Mark, were equally great. An amazing bucket list item - would strongly recommend Go Wild Ballooning to anyone!

Meet up and instructions clear by tour guide, flight had spectacular views and landing was very good. Breakfast is average quality, coffee good. Nice grounds to walk afterwards. Plenty of parking on site, nearby chocolate place was good to visit with little one.

Absolutely spectacular & breath-taking experience worthy of 10⭐ The entire experience from beginning to end was absolutely perfect because of these 3 incredible musketeers (staff members): Mark Fraser - the best pilot in the world, amazingly calm, funny and experienced. Thank you Mark for the smooth and safe flight over Yarra Valley. Your skills are truly remarkable. Rob - extremely knowledgeable ground staff, willing to answer all your 1001 questions before flying, great sense of humour, very friendly. Thank you Rob for driving us safely to and from launch site. Ethan - the balloon transporter, set-up ground staff, sweetest chilled guy. Thank you Ethan for setting up our balloon and for calming my nerves. Can't thank you guys enough for making our experience such a memorable one. Thank you for your hard work setting up our balloon and ensuring all safety measures were in place. The flight was incredibly smooth, the view was absolutely phenomenal. The people in the group were just fantastic, super friendly, made heaps of friends by the time we landed. Packing up the balloon was so much fun for everyone. Thank You for that unique experience. For someone with a height phobia, I did not want the flight to end. Everyone must experience this in their lifetime. Thank you Go Wild Ballooning for the most incredible experience of my life. I will definitely fly again, but only if Mark is the pilot 👨‍✈️🎈👏🥰
