There's a quick briefing on flight routines, and then the balloon ascends for a 30-minute flight over the spinex grass and mulga scrub of the vast Outback. Be sure to keep an eye out for wildlife, particularly the big red kangaroos. Once back on the ground, enjoy champagne and refreshments at a nearby campsite.
