Aoraki (Hot Air) Balloon Safaris
20 Barkers Rd, 7730, Methven

Aoraki (Hot Air) Balloon Safaris
Operating from Methven, “New Zealand’s Finest Ballooning Location”, pristine views are obtained of Mt. Cook and the National Park Mountains. Being very central over the Canterbury Plains, a full 300km panorama of the entire plains farm land is viewed from south of Timaru, to well north of Christchurch City. You can also view the world’s finest example of a braided river system, the Rakaia River. Commencing at daybreak, allow up to 4 hours, of which about 1 hour is the actual flight which concludes with a buffet “Champagne style breakfast”, offered as a picnic in the farmer’s field where the balloon lands. A non-flying ground fare is offered for any one who does not wish to fly in the balloon.
