Itinerary

Get picked up from Dubai (hotel or private residence) between 3 AM and 5 AM, by a dedicated Conservation Guide in a private Land Rover Defender 130. Pick-up times vary according to sunrise, and your exact pickup time will be shared with you the evening before your experience.
Arrive at your dedicated take-off site where you’re welcomed with Arabic coffee and dates.
Marvel at the world’s only drone show before a hot air balloon flight and watch in awe as the sky lights up.
Feel the thrill as your balloon gets filled with air and fire, slowly taking shape in front of you, and get ready to jump on board.
Enjoy the stunning scenery of the desert below you as you share the air with only your loved ones, the pilot and the storyteller.
Experience the captivating stories of the land as our in-flight storyteller shares cultural tales of the desert.
Fly alongside the world’s fastest animal as you witness an in-flight falcon show.
As the only hot air balloon operator with permission to operate in the Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve, take in stunning views of the desert below as the pilot gets closer to the desert floor than most others.
After landing, embark on a short drive to a Royal Desert Retreat, which can exclusively be accessed by Hero Balloon Flights.
Indulge in a spectacular breakfast menu crafted by a Michelin-starred chef inspired by the elements of air, earth, fire, and water. Savour this meal at a tranquil desert oasis and experience serenity as you have a private camp to yourself.
Take a short camel ride around the desert oasis.
Return to Dubai, your experience lasts approximately 5 hours.

What was once water is now sand.
What is sand now will turn into a forest.

As you take flight, the desert awakens beneath you, revealing the elements that shape the land -Air, Fire, Water, Earth- each woven into this journey created for you. This menu is a sensory homage to the elements that have moulded the desert.

On your table

Assorted cheese, nuts, seasonal fruits, locally sourced honey, jam, and butter. Comes with a side of warm bread.

Palate Cleanser

Passionfruit and turmeric shooter to refresh your palate for the culinary journey ahead.

Embark on a sensory experience with a dish of your choosing:

WATER

Inspired by the hidden oasis of the desert, this dish blends seaweed poached crab and lobster with finely chopped mango, rich crème fraiche, grapefruit, topped with green oil and delicate caviar.

EARTH

Like the sands of the desert, this dish reveals layers of smashed avocado, heirloom carrots and roasted sweet potatoes. Baby beets, crisp red radish and desert truffle provide a satisfying bite, reflecting the evolving textures of the dunes.

FIRE

Infused with gentle kisses from the sun, the smoked red pepper couscous embraces tender grilled chicken breast and chicken chorizo sausages. A cooling touch of mint yoghurt soothes each bite, while a final whisper of lemon olive oil completes this fiery dance.

AIR

Floating on delicate layers of airy puff pastry, a light vanilla lemon espuma takes flight, surrounded by caramelised banana, fresh berries, and a drizzle of date syrup that glides like a breeze.

Choose your choice of eggs

soft scrambled, sunny-side up fried, or soft poached.
