About this tour

Experience the magic of sunrise from above with a Private Hot Air Balloon Flight over the Arabian Desert in Dubai. Soar to heights of over 4,000 feet and enjoy uninterrupted 360-degree views of golden dunes, native wildlife, and lush desert oases that define this remarkable landscape. After your approximately one-hour flight, you’ll be treated to a delicious breakfast and receive a personalized flight certificate signed by your pilot.

Please note: Each Private Hot Air Balloon experience is limited to a maximum of nine guests.

Prepare for a Calm Yet Thrilling Journey
Your adventure begins before dawn with a private transfer to the launch site. Here, you’ll witness the fascinating process of the balloon being inflated using powerful burners—a truly memorable sight. Before boarding the basket and meeting your pilot, you’ll receive a full safety briefing to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience from takeoff to landing.

Enjoy a Truly Exclusive and VIP Experience
This private flight offers a premium level of comfort and privacy, with the entire balloon reserved solely for you and your group. It’s a perfect way to celebrate special moments such as birthdays, anniversaries, or marriage proposals, adding an intimate and romantic touch to a once-in-a-lifetime occasion.

Embrace the Wonder of Flight
As the balloon gently lifts off and ascends to around 4,000 feet, you’ll glide effortlessly through the sky, experiencing both serenity and excitement. Take in the spectacular bird’s-eye views of the protected desert landscape and watch the sun rise, casting warm hues across the sands during your one-hour journey.

Commemorative Flight Certificate
After a smooth landing, you’ll be presented with a flight certificate signed by your pilot as a keepsake of this unforgettable experience. A private transfer will then take you back to your hotel, bringing your extraordinary desert adventure to a perfect close.
