Sunrise above rice fields, my hotair balloon experience

Ever wondered what Bali looks like from the sky? I found out at Tanah Gajah, Ubud, where a hot air balloon ride gave me one of the most serene, surreal experiences of my life. Lift-off was at dawn. As the sun peeked over Mount Agung, the world below glowed golden — rice terraces shimmered, palm trees stretched long shadows, and the morning mist danced between coconut groves. The balloon didn’t go far or fast — and that’s the point. You float. You breathe. You just… exist. 🎈 The experience was short (about 7–10 minutes in the air), but utterly magical. And the view? Postcard-perfect. After landing, I was treated to a lovely breakfast at the resort — freshly baked pastries, tropical fruits, and a cappuccino that tasted better under the sky I’d just floated through. ⸻ ✨ Trip Tips: • 📍 Location: Tanah Gajah by Hadiprana, Ubud (luxury resort + balloon combo) • 🕕 Best time: Morning flights only (sunrise glow = unforgettable) • 💰 Price: Approx. IDR 2,000,000–2,500,000 per person (includes breakfast) • 📸 Tip: Wear light colors — they pop beautifully in photos! • 🧒 Family-friendly: Kids can join too (min height/age applies) ⸻ This isn’t a thrill ride. It’s a slow float into stillness — a moment of peace in the sky, where Bali whispers beneath your feet. If you’re craving something different in Ubud, don’t just walk the fields. Fly above them. 🌾✨ #travel #hotairballon #bali
