Balloon Flight Avon Valley, Perth (Includes breakfast)

Enjoy the spectacular views from a balloon basket and experience this ancient sport in Northam, the centre of the picturesque Avon Valley. Depending on the wind direction, we shall choose launch locations to try to give you the best views at sunrise that the day can offer.
At Liberty Balloon Flights we give you the finest experience of free flight in a balloon in the whole of Australia, hands down. View the sunrise over the horizon with pilots who have been flying for decades. We fly higher than any other operator in the country to give you the best views and no, you WILL NOT feel height sick. This is the full experience of a balloon flight with the personalised service only small groups can receive. Breathtaking views and safety are assured with pilots who have been flying for over 28 years, not only in WA but also, for close to 20 years, in Melbourne. With the added experience of flying up and down the Andes, Patagonia, Mexico, the UK and many countries and cities around the world, your pilots will make your flight as varied as the winds allow on your chosen day. We like adventure and we make it SAFE. We call this "The Peaceful Adventure". Views across the Avon Valley in a morning you will never forget. Participate in the oldest form of aviation, a hot air balloon flight. Breakfast is included after the flight!


The experience starts early, at around 05:00 am or earlier, but we will contact you in the evening before your flight to confirm the exact time. We follow the Sun and we try to be airborne just before dawn, hence the early start. Of course, dawn is at different times as the months' progress so we will meet a little later in the middle of Winter. Once we meet and after a quick check-in, you will jump into our vehicles and we will drive you to the launch site we will use that day. We have many locations we use to take-off, always depending on the wind direction on the day. In case you don't know, hot air balloons just float, so we simply drift in the breeze. We tend to "fly-in" to the valley so we will drive upwind to take off. Ballooning is a hands-on experience and there are simple tasks for those who'd like to participate in setting the balloon up for the flight and there is certainly a job for everyone when we need to pack the balloon away after we have landed!. The flight itself will last about one hour and your pilot will use the winds at different heights to navigate to the most appropriate landing site. At the end of it all, we will drive back to Northam for a well-deserved breakfast.


Passengers exceeding 130kg are encouraged to contact our office staff for assistance in booking.



For those who choose the transport from Perth and back option, the meeting location is the car park near Crown Casino, corner of Glenn Place and Victoria Park Drive. The drive is just over an hour and we will be returning you to this location after the flight.

Flights take place over the beautiful Avon Valley, just over 1-hour drive from Perth. Our objective is to give you the best possible views and experience of a free flight and we choose one of our many launch sites depending on the wind direction on the day. An experience meant to be fun and interesting greets you with fantastic views of Avon Valley at sunrise whilst participating in the ancient sport of floating in the wind. This is a Peaceful Adventure and one you will never forget.
We will meet you in the township of Northam, in the heart of the Avon Valley, at the Farmer's Home Hotel. From here you will climb into our vehicles, which will drive you to the chosen launch site for the day. Depending on the wind direction, we cover all of the Valley and your pilot will try to navigate available winds to make your flight varied and interesting. Balloon flights are not about adrenaline, quite the contrary, this is a peaceful activity that never ceases to surprise by its gentleness. Balloon flights are about contemplating, about understanding that you ARE the wind...yes, for the hour you will be in the air you just float, quietly and at the same speed as the wind is moving. At height this could be 50 km per hour or more...but some days it is just a few kilometres per hour...it all completely depends on the weather. After the flight, we return to Northam for a lovely breakfast at Dome Cafe, inside the Farmers Home Hotel, the perfect way in which to end your morning with us. In total, expect to be with us between three and four hours. Flights are always at dawn and we meet just over an hour before sunrise.
You can redeem a gift voucher online from the home page or you can call us on 1800 BALLOON (225566) to arrange a date for your flight.
