Wear something warm as it will probably be cold when we start out. It might be a good idea to bring a hat of some kind as the heat from the burner flame can sometimes be quite noticeable. Also, you will need a pair of good, sturdy shoes.

Generally it doesn&rsquo;t get much colder &lsquo;up there&rsquo; than what it is on the ground. You don&rsquo;t feel any wind because you are moving at the same speed as the wind. We also find that the burner acts as a pretty good heater.

The balloon goes where the wind goes, so the tour&nbsp;has a lot of different launch sites to choose from. Also, the wind does go in different directions at different altitudes and so, by ascending and descending, the tour&nbsp;can take advantage of this to choose a wind direction which is as close to the direction we want as possible.

Like so many things in ballooning, this flight height depends on the winds on the day. At different heights, there are different wind layers in which the wind has different speeds and directions. On an average flight, this tour&nbsp;goes from tree-top level up to between one and four thousand feet (several hundred metres).

The address to meet at is 71 Stonewall Road, Nuriootpa.

&nbsp;Just a few minutes drive from Tanunda and Nuriootpa

Adelaide CBD is about 75km away.&nbsp; Please allow 50-60 minutes to drive.

Fly in a hot air balloon over Barossa Valley! This local tour has been operating since 1986 and&nbsp;is excited to share their passion for hot air ballooning. An experienced pilot will provide commentary and a safe flight over the wine region. This has been inducted into TripAdvisor&#39;s Hall of Fame for its&nbsp;reputation for professionalism, excellence, and safety.&nbsp;

 
&nbsp;

Hot air balloons are fascinating and a great way to see a place at a slow pace! A lot of people wonder how they fly &mdash; but it&#39;s simple! Hot air balloons fly because hot air rises. Hot air rises because it is less dense than the cooler air around it and so it tends to &lsquo;float&rsquo; on the cooler air. The tour&nbsp;uses a burner to heat the air in the balloon until it is hotter than the air outside the balloon. Once it is, the balloon will rise, carrying the group&nbsp;with it. If the pilot&nbsp;were to allow the balloon to cool, it would begin to do descend as it becomes the same temperature as the outside air. If the pilot&nbsp;were to let some of the hot air out of the balloon, the same thing would happen because there would no longer be enough hot air in the balloon to lift the group.

The flying height depends on the winds on the day. At different heights, there are different wind layers in which the wind has different speeds and directions. On an average flight, this tour travels&nbsp;from tree-top level up to one and four thousand feet high&nbsp;(several hundred metres). 
 
&nbsp;

The tour flies early in the&nbsp;morning because the winds are at their calmest at that time. Also, a lower ambient temperature means that it is easier to get the balloon off the ground and keep it in the air because we don&rsquo;t have to heat it to such a high temperature. This in turn means the tour&nbsp;doesn&#39;t&nbsp;use so much gas and can fly for longer. And of course, the valley looks so pretty at sunrise! After the flight, enjoy a delicious breakfast with your group and receive a certificate of completion for doing one of the coolest activities in South Australia!

It was a fantastic experience, and the wine was outstanding. Views to die for and excellent service. I enjoyed every moment, including all of the fascinating stories. Spectacular views from above, knowledgeable, friendly, and chatty staff, and delectable wines paired with the most amazing snacks and side dishes. Delicious snacks to accompany the wine tasting. It was most likely the highlight of our trip.

1/10 would recommend

A once-in-a-lifetime experience made even more memorable by a fantastic pilot and ground crew. The most incredible, exciting, yet calming experience. The views were breathtaking, and the commentary was insightful. The support crew was fantastic and hilarious. This is a fantastic experience!! A fantastically helpful crew. Plus the incredible, delectable wine. I wouldn't trade this tour for anything else.

Had the most amazing experience

The experience was fantastic. Everyone at Hot Air Balloon was extremely helpful, informative, and amusing. It was very peaceful and not at all frightening.
We had a great time and would recommend doing it at least once in your life.

One of the best things I've signed up for!

Excellent from beginning to end. All of the staff members were professional, witty, informative, reassuring, attentive, and more than competent. Brilliantly planned and carried out. They did an excellent job with our Hot Air Balloon ride yesterday, and we were able to enjoy the breathtaking views from above.

Highly recommend!

We enjoyed the lunchtime wine tastings at various wineries in addition to the hot air balloon ride, which was wonderful. Pleasant small gathering, and everyone was really pleasant. Highly recommended!

Amazing experience!
