Overview

Hot air balloon Bali at Tanah Gajah, Ubud, is a tethered ride above the rice fields: the balloon rises on a rope for 7–10 minutes, you take photos and come back down. Choose your time: a quiet ride in the morning or afternoon, sunrise with breakfast, or sunset with afternoon tea or dinner.

See the rice terraces, jungles, and hills of Ubud from above.

A bright hot air balloon gently rises, offering stunning views of Ubud’s surroundings.

In the distance, the sacred Mount Agung rises majestically. This is a perfect opportunity to enjoy the peace and quiet of nature, feeling the pleasant breeze — as if you’ve just learned how to fly.

The tethered balloon takes two guests (up to 150 kg in total) and rises from the grounds of the Tanah Gajah estate in Ubud. Choose one of four programs:

  • Balloon ride only — a morning or afternoon slot, confirmed by the manager
  • Balloon + sunset afternoon tea — 17:30–19:00
  • Balloon + sunrise breakfast — 06:30–08:00
