More Details - Hot Air Balloon Flight in Dubai

Start your day before dawn with a once-in-a-lifetime hot air balloon flight over the Dubai desert

We’ll pick you up early in the morning from your hotel or a central meeting point, between 4:00 AM and 5:00 AM, depending on your location and the sunrise schedule.

Arriving at the launch site, you’ll board your balloon with the guidance of a certified pilot. As the balloon gently rises, you’ll witness the sun peeking over the horizon, casting golden light across endless dunes and revealing the desert’s untouched beauty. Spot desert animals, marvel at rare desert plants, and enjoy complete silence in the air — broken only by the occasional blast of the burner.

The flight duration ranges from 40 to 70 minutes, based on wind speed and direction. You’ll have ample time for photographs and to soak in the surreal landscape below.

After landing, you’ll be safely transported back to your hotel or meeting point, with memories that will last a lifetime. Whether you’re a nature enthusiast, photography lover, or thrill seeker, this hot air balloon adventure is a must-do experience in Dubai.
