About this activity
Float over Chiang Mai's verdant valleys and temple-dotted landscape at sunrise in a shared hot-air balloon, piloted by experienced commercial aviators. This immersive 3+ hour adventure combines weightless flight with cultural sightseeing, dawn light photography, and a traditional champagne toast breakfast.
This Once-In-A-Lifetime experience gives you a bird's-eye view of Chiang Mai's stunning countryside just as the sun rises to begin a new day. Allow the wind to lead you, while feeling a sense of weightlessness, as your experienced commercial pilot takes you over a wealth of cultural and historic sites giving you panoramic views of Chiangmai's breathtaking landscape.
Upon arrival at the launch pad, only about 10kms. from Chiang Mai's city centre, you can watch the crew prepare the balloon for the magical experience that you'll remember forever.
Following the flight of about 50-60 minutes like no other, you will be treated to a breakfast of fresh fruits, hot coffee and tea as well as a traditional Champagne Celebration.
Shortly thereafter you will be driven back to your Chiang Mai hotel, returning around mid-morning.

Insider tips
- ★Arrive well-fed but light; breakfast follows the flight, so skip large breakfasts beforehand
- ★Bring a camera or phone with good battery; sunrise light is fleeting but unmatched for photography
- ★Wear layered clothing; altitude brings cooler air despite tropical heat at ground level
- ★The launch pad is only 10km from central Chiang Mai, making early hotel pickups feasible

- •Early morning start required for sunrise launch; exact pickup time confirmed at booking
