Testimonials  

“Even better than I thought it was going to be- and I had high expectations! Excellent adventure and value for money.” 28 March 2011, G Haynes, Canada

What an amazing experience! Went up in a hot air balloon as the sun was coming up and we flew over green hills and later over villages where people came out of their homes, waving and talking to us. Kids were running after the balloon cheering 'Bula sky people'. Landed on the football field where more than 20 excited kids had gathered to greet us as we touched ground. A truly warm Fijian welcoming and a fantastic end to a very memorable adventure! September 2010, Camilla, Sydney Australia

This was my first time to do a Hot Air Balloon trip. I have to say “It was amazing”. I was a bit nervous and not sure what to expect, but the Captain and the crew were excellent. We had perfect weather and to finally come over the ridge and see the sunrise was again one of those things you will never forget. I have to say, it is probably one of the most under rated things you can do....however once you have done it, you can’t describe the feeling you get and it gives a totally different view to Fiji. September 2010 Matt McCarthy, Sydney Australia
