Get your camera ready and prepare to soar…
Are you ready for another exciting adventure? AlUla’s iconic hot air balloons are back. Run by Hero Balloon Flights, Saudi Arabia’s first commercial hot air balloon operator, there is no other way to truly take in AlUla in all its glory than with a hot air balloon ride.
Find yourself on cloud nine as you enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of historic sites that have captivated travellers for millennia, including Saudi Arabia’s first Unesco World Heritage Site, Hegra, alongside AlUla’s spellbinding tapestry of canyons, rock formations, and verdant oases from up to 4,000 feet in the air.
Wave goodbye as you go up, up and away for an airborne adventure you’ll still be talking about for years to come. A tranquil and scenic experience like no other, the only sounds you’ll hear are those of nature and the occasional blast of the burners as you float almost silently and imperceptibly over the land below.
Whether you are yearning for an exclusive experience to share with only your loved ones or you want to share the adventure with other travellers, these hot air balloon experiences by Hero Balloon Flights will surely satisfy your wanderlust.
A shared hot air balloon experience costs SAR995 per adult and SAR795 per child. Hero Balloon Flights also offers a private hot air balloon flight for up to eight guests for SAR9,995. Plus, each booking includes complimentary transport to and from the guests’ hotel.
