Mansfield Private Balloon Flight – A Luxury Escape to Victoria’s Spectacular High Country

Leave the city behind and discover one of Victoria’s most breathtaking regions on an unforgettable private day tour combining award-winning wines, gourmet dining and an exclusive private hot air balloon flight over the magnificent High Country.

From the moment you’re collected from your Melbourne accommodation in a luxury vehicle, every detail has been thoughtfully arranged to create a seamless day of indulgence. Journey through picturesque countryside before arriving in the charming township of Mansfield, gateway to Victoria’s alpine region and home to some of Australia’s most spectacular scenery.

This exclusive experience has been designed for discerning travellers seeking something truly extraordinary. Whether celebrating a special occasion or simply enjoying the finer things in life, this is a day that perfectly blends exceptional food, premium beverages and unforgettable adventure.

A World-Class Experience

Your journey begins with a picturesque drive into Victoria’s beautiful High Country for a leisurely gourmet lunch at the picturesque Delatite Winery.

Surrounded by rolling vineyards and magnificent mountain scenery, you’ll enjoy a beautifully prepared seasonal meal accompanied by a tasting of Delatite’s award-winning cool-climate wines. With spectacular views stretching across the valley, this is a dining experience that captures the relaxed elegance of the region.

Take your time, savour every course and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere before the highlight of your day awaits.

Your Exclusive Private Balloon Flight

As the afternoon light bathes the surrounding mountains in golden hues, prepare for an unforgettable experience unlike any other.

Your private hot air balloon has been reserved exclusively for you and your guests, offering complete privacy as you gently lift above the Mansfield countryside.

Float silently over rolling farmland, winding rivers, vineyards and the spectacular mountain ranges of Victoria’s High Country. The sense of peace is extraordinary, interrupted only by the occasional roar of the balloon’s burner as breathtaking panoramic views unfold in every direction.

Unlike shared balloon flights, this exclusive experience allows you to enjoy every moment with those closest to you, making it perfect for proposals, anniversaries, milestone birthdays, honeymoon couples, or anyone wanting an unforgettable luxury adventure.

As the sun begins to lower across the High Country, you’ll experience a perspective that few visitors are ever privileged to enjoy.

A Day Designed Around You

Throughout the day you’ll travel in complete comfort in your private luxury vehicle, allowing you to relax while your guide takes care of every detail.

There are no crowded coaches, fixed schedules or rushed itineraries—only personalised service, exceptional hospitality and the flexibility to enjoy the day at your own pace.

Every element has been carefully selected to showcase the very best of Victoria’s High Country, combining premium experiences with spectacular natural beauty.

An Experience You’ll Never Forget

Few destinations in Australia offer such an extraordinary combination of gourmet food, boutique wines and breathtaking scenery.

Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply looking for one of Victoria’s most unique luxury experiences, Melbourne Elite Tours delivers a day that is every bit as remarkable as the destination itself.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wir hatten unglaublich fantastische drei Tage mit Paul, der uns alles gezeigt, viel erklärt und im Vorfeld die ganze Tour perfekt organisiert hat. Alles angepasst an unsere Wünsche und Vorstellungen. Als am letzten Tag auf dem Weg zum Flughafen spontan unser Flug verlegt wurde, baute er noch einen extra Programmpunkt ein, um unsere Wartezeit zu verkürzen. Uneingeschränkt empfehlenswert.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had two great days with Paul from Melbourne Elite Tours. First was visiting Phillip Island and the Penguin Parade and the second was touring the Yarra Valley. Paul was easy to work with and we were able to tailor each tour to our specific timing and needs. As our driver/guide Paul was timely, professional and very personable. His passion for the work and knowledge of the area were first rate. I would highly recommend using Melbourne Elite Tours!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Paul and his team are definitely a cut above. We loved the attentive service and many thoughtful touches not to mention superb restaurant choices. Views weren't bad either. Can highly recommend the helicopter ride over the Apostles.
