Sunrise Tethered Hot Air Balloon, Ras Al Khaimah

Ras Al KhaimahAdventureflight of about 10 minutes

Sunrise Tethered Hot Air Balloon, Ras Al Khaimah is an adventure activity listed under Ras Al Khaimah activities at RAAHHI TOURS. This is a tethered balloon ride rather than a free flight. The balloon is held in place by strong ropes fixed to the ground, rising a little over 30 metres above the Al Qurm launch area and then descending. Time in the air is about 10 minutes, and the basket carries up to two passengers with a pilot. The session begins around 5:40 am, so guests are in the air close to sunrise. From the basket there are views over the Ras Al Khaimah skyline, the desert, green mangroves and, further off, Jebel Jais. After landing, guests have breakfast on site. A waiver is signed during booking. Transfers are not included, so guests travel to the launch site themselves with their voucher and ID. Listed duration or timing: flight of about 10 minutes.
