Graham and Jan Kerr have been hot air ballooning in Canowindra for over 20 years. Graham is the chief pilot. We also now have a vineyard and winery with cellar door open 7 days. We cater for ploughman's lunches and woodfired pizzas from our unique woodfired oven. Post flight breakfast is served at the winery with winetasting available.
Additional Breakfasts
We encourage your friends to come along on the "chase" and join in the post flight celebrations. A $25 charge applies.
Heights
Many people have said they are afraid of heights but in more than 20 years of commercial flying we have never had one person who had a problem in the balloon. The takeoff is slow and gentle.
Safety
For safety reasons we are unable to carry the disabled or passengers who weigh more than 115 kg or who are pregnant.
