Get ready to go up, up and away and around Dubai in 60 minutes! Today’s Nabit is giving you the chance to try the oldest and most romantic way to fly: by hot air balloon. For AED 600, experience a 4-hour Amigos Balloons Co adventure which includes an hour's balloon flight, breakfast, a certificate to commemorate your flight and transportation to and from the launch site. The balloon flies early mornings over Dubai’s sand dunes and the voucher is valid until May 31, 2011.


If you’re looking for a unique way to propose to that special someone, see the world from a different perspective or just blow off some hot air, this is the Nabit for you. Your day starts with the sun, with an early pick up at a designated meeting point between 5:00am and 6:00am. Getting out of bed early is a minor inconvenience when compared to the breathtaking views you’re about to witness. Depending on the season and weather conditions, the balloon flies from several different locations including the Fossil Rock near Al Faya Wadi, for the opportunity to glide over the Bedouin villages, rocky mountains and golden sands.

Up in the air

During your flight, with the exception of the occasional roar of the burner, the only sounds you hear are the sounds of nature. Experience the absolute stillness and silence as you float 2,500ft from the ground. And don’t forget your camera! This is a moment you definitely want to capture. After drifting leisurely for about an hour, the pilot will prepare for landing and return to Mother Earth. Once safely on the ground, you can celebrate your achievement with an enjoyable breakfast and a choice of hot or refreshing cold soft drinks.

Your Pilot

Captain Tariq Al Omari has15 years of ballooning experience so you’re in expert hands. His aviation career began in 1982 flying planes in the Jordanian air force and as a civilian. Soon after he did his basic and advanced training in Spain and now holds commercial pilot's licenses in USA, Jordan and UAE.

Go on a ride you will never forget! Nab this deal today.

    Hi Kristin,
    Thank you for sending us your feedback and we apologize for the experience you've had with Amigos Balloons. Because each flight depends on the weather conditions it's unfortunate that its difficult to go on the preferred date, however the service you received is unacceptable and understand your frustration. We have contacted the business and will work on resolving this issue. Can you please send your contact details to [email protected] so we can get in touch with you?
    Thanks and best regards,

    I bought 4 vouchers to surprise my parents.
    I booked the flight in July, filled in the required forms and sent it to Amigos Balloons. After a week I wrote another email to ask if they have received my booking. They confirmed that they received it and I was told they would get back to me to confirm the date. After another week I called again to ask for my confirmation. Finally I got the booking for 12.11.2010 confirmed.

    My parents arrived in Dubai and I told them about my surprise. Since I didn't receive the promised call until 7 pm I called Amigos balloons to get more information regarding pick-up time (approx 5 am !!!!) etc.
    The person I reached explained that they have to cancel the flight and next possibility would be Monday morning only. Till Sunday evening 8 pm nobody called to inform us about departure etc. So, I had to call them again and got an explanation that due to unstable weather concition the flight has to be cancelled again. Same happened on Monday evening, Tuesday evening, Wednesday evening.
    Today, I called again to let them know, that tomorrow (19.11.) morning is the last chance, since my parents will leave in the evening.

    Now I had to hear that the Captain is ill now.

    I feel so ripped off. They don't reply on mails. They don't call. They don't care.
    I booked it well in advance and cooperated a whole week. We prepared ourselves every evening for the balloon flight (and to get up at 4:30 am!). Every day anoter excuse. Evidently made up stories.

    I am wondering, if that is because I pay only the discounted rate and they serve only customers which pay the full price?!

    Please get back to me to discuss the refund of 4 x 600 AED !
