Hot Air Ballooning over the Cape Winelands

Experience an unforgettable hot air balloon flight near Cape Town with an experienced pilot. Feel the excitement as you are gently lifted above the ground to safely float over one of the most beautiful wine regions in the World. Sheltered by mountains and hilly territory, Stellenbosch and Paarl are the perfect backdrops and locations for a Winelands ballooning tour.
Begin your sunrise ballooning tour with an early morning pickup from your accommodation in Cape Town. Start the day easy and in good company with a warm and uplifting drink waiting for you. Excitement should kick in as you watch the crew tightly holding the balloon's ropes in position and seeing the envelope of the balloon inflating. You're allowed to partake and assist in setting up the balloon.
Once everyone is in the basket, the pilot will use the burners to increase the air temperature in the envelope. When the balloon is ready for taking off a quick pull will detach the balloon.
You'll soon experience the basket lifting off the ground and will drift peacefully up into the blue sky! Find an oasis of serenity as you watch the sun rising and spilling its illuminating light across the beautiful farmlands and surrounding mountain ranges of the Cape Winelands.
Celebrate your Cape Town bucket-list experience with a delightful sparkling wine after your flight. You'll enjoy a well-deserved farm-style breakfast and end off with excellent wine tastings and a winery tour at 3-4 top wineries in Cape Town.
