    Raging Thunder Hot Air Ballooning  Click for more info
Ballooning With Raging Thunder You'll never forget the magical experience of flying aboard a Hot Air Balloon as the sun comes up over the Atherton Tablelands. Our giant balloons accommodate up to 20 people, and glide gently over the bushland & farms of the Mareeba Valley located an hour west of Cairns.
The Mareeba Valley is our chosen launch site because is protected from the coastal winds by the Kuranda Range, giving us the most flying days and clear skies of any site in Australia (even if it may be raining in Cairns).

  1 Hour Ballooning Over the Atherton Tablelands

Make the most of your dawn Hot Air Ballooning adventure with two half hour flights (or a single hour long flight depending on passenger numbers).

Because our balloons are gently carried along by the wind, every flight is different. We have over a hundred different take off and landing sites around the Mareeba Valley, with your launch site being chosen on the morning by our Chief Pilot based on wind direction.

This early hour is essential due to the calm winds, which gently carry your balloon along. You are returned to your accommodation (or Kuranda) with plenty of time to begin other tours the same day

  • Two 30 minute scenic Tablelands balloon flights (or a single hour long flight)
  • Flight certificate
