Dubai Hot Air Balloon Signature Experience

Begin your unforgettable journey in Dubai’s enchanting desert with a pre-dawn pickup between 3 AM and 5 AM from your hotel or private residence by a Conservation Guide in a modern Land Rover Defender 130. Arrival times are set to catch the sunrise, and your exact pickup time will be confirmed the evening before.  

At the serene take-off site, enjoy Arabic coffee and dates, and marvel at the world's only drone light show before taking flight. Watch as your hot air balloon takes shape, then climb aboard for a spacious, comfortable ride in reduced-capacity compartments, ensuring a private experience.

As you soar above the Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve, an in-flight storyteller shares tales of the land, while a mesmerizing falcon show accompanies your flight. Capture stunning views as your pilot expertly glides close to the desert floor, revealing the desert’s beauty.

After landing, you’ll head to a Royal Desert Retreat, exclusively accessible through Hero Balloon Flights, where you’ll savor a Michelin-starred breakfast inspired by air, earth, fire, and water at a tranquil oasis. Enjoy a short camel ride to complete the adventure before returning to Dubai. The entire experience lasts approximately 5 hours, making it the perfect way to explore the desert’s magic.
