We had high expectations for this ballooning experience and somehow the team from Go Ballooning managed to exceed them. After a false start due to unexpected stormy weather (great to see a business that insists on safety first), we were thrilled to be rescheduled within the same weekend and to take to the skies for breathtaking views over the lake, farms, and out to both the Gold Coast and Brisbane. The very early start was more than worth it to be up in the air for sunrise and the perfect early morning conditions. All of the staff were fantastic to deal with from the office staff to book, schedule and reschedule; to the bus driver taking us to and from the launch site while answering all our many questions; and of course the pilot who provided lots of information and a very smooth ride.
