Important note

1. Notes

1. Age requirement: Not permitted for those under 3 years old.

2. Whether you can see the sunrise depends on the weather conditions of the day, and no refund will be given for not seeing the sunrise.

3. Pregnant women cannot participate in this tour; please do not wear high heels during the flight.

4. The specific time of the activity may vary slightly depending on the season (weather or sunrise time). Please refer to the time indicated on your confirmation.

5. Currently not offering packages for accompanying personnel who do not participate in the hot air balloon ride.

6. When the hot air balloon ignites and ascends, it will emit a flame reaching 3–5m high in an instant, accompanied by a loud noise similar to an explosion. Please be mentally prepared and hold onto the basket tightly during ignition. As you prepare to land, face the direction of movement, hold the edge of the basket with your hands, and adopt a slightly crouched position.


II. Itinerary related

1. There's a 1 in 5 chance of hot air balloon rides being canceled annually due to weather (please be mentally prepared in advance, and we recommend reserving 2 mornings to avoid disappointment if canceled on the first day)

2. Hot air balloon ride area

[Hot Air] Year-round flights to inland pastoral views

[GO Ballooning] Weather permitting, we prioritize flying over coastal views. Approximately 2/3 of the year, we fly over city coastal views. Other times, we fly over the plateau to see inland pastures. The coastal view take-off point is a 15-min drive from the city, while the inland view drive is 1–1.5 hrs. Please note that due to recent large fires, many pastures are withered.

3. For itineraries to inland ranches, as ranches often raise cattle, sheep, and horses, please be careful not to step on animal droppings at the take-off and landing points. Shoe covers are available in the vehicle for you to take.

4. Package with transfer service: Due to limited attraction transportation capacity, the pickup address may differ from the one you provided during booking. You may need to walk to a nearby designated pickup location. Please always refer to the address on your confirmation voucher. If your booking is within the non-refundable modification period, the attraction does not accept free cancellation due to pickup address differences. We appreciate your understanding.
