Description:

Dubai's geography and climate are ideal for ballooning - they provide a unique situation where passengers can experience the desert as only a few have seen it - from a gently floating hot air balloon.

Feel the cool dawn air as you float only a few metres above the red dunes, then be awestruck as the mesmerizing landscape unfolds below you.

View the giant dunes, the moon-like landscape of the rugged Hajj mountains to the east, and the "21st century" skyline of Dubai to the west as you rise high into the immense blue of the desert sky.

Whether you are on holiday in Dubai or a local, the views on offer from our hot air balloon rides will take you to new levels of appreciation and awe of the desert and it's unique landscape.

Balloon Adventures/Rides Dubai provide courtesy transfers from any major hotel in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

FAQ's

Why should I fly in Dubai?
The Dubai desert is a truly unique landscape. Flying above it in a hot air balloon gives you the opportunity to view this as very few people have done before.

 

What is included?
We will pick you up from any major hotel in Dubai (or meet you at our central meeting point), provide transfers to and from the desert flight area in our new airconditioned Toyota Landcruisers, an approximate one hour balloon flight, light refreshments following your flight, a personalized flight certificate signed by your pilot, a four wheel drive experience from the landing site to the main road and then return you to your hotel or meeting point.

 

Why do we have to start so early?
The best time to fly balloons is in the cool dawn air when the winds are light. It is also the most beautiful time of day in the desert.

 

What should I wear?
It is warm in the balloon and the desert so you should dress as if you were going for a walk outside in the city. We suggest that you wear trainers or similar, and not high heels. Bring a hat or cap and sunglasses.

 

Can I bring my camera?
Yes, however the desert can be a dusty place so you should be very careful to prevent dust getting in your camera… particularly if it is a digital model.

How long does it take?
We fly over the desert for approximately one hour. You should allow up to five hours from when we meet you until we return you to the same point.

 

If I am afraid of heights is this OK for me?
Many people who are afraid of heights come on our balloon flights. The feeling of flying in a balloon is very gentle and different from looking off a high bridge or building, or climbing a ladder. You should have no problem, however if you are really concerned please advise your pilot and he will take special care of you.

 

Is there an age limit?
The minimum age is five. There is no upper age limit. We have regularly flown people in their 80’s and 90’s. The oldest to fly with us has been 102.

 

How fit do I have to be?
Ballooning is a soft “adventure” so it does not require a high level of fitness. You should be able to stand unaided and climb into the basket. If you have a serious medical condition or perhaps have recently had a hip replacement we advise you to check with your doctor for you own peace of mind

 

Is it safe?
Statistically ballooning is the safest form of flying. Certainly much safer than driving in a motor car! Our balloons are inspected and certified in the same way as an airliner and undergo various inspections every four months, every year and every 100 hours. This is required by law. Our engineer is qualified in the factory of the balloon manufacturer in England.

 

Who are the pilots?
All our pilots are internationally qualified commercial pilots and amongst the most experienced in the world. All are full time professionals.

 

Do you have insurance?
Yes. Public liability is a requirement to qualify for and hold an Air Operators Certificate in the U.A.E.

How much does it cost?
 183 Euro per person. This is well priced when compared to flying in other places such as Africa, Australia or the United Kingdom.

 

Price Per Adult : 265 Euro
