When you stay Rydges, you stay local, and there’s nothing quite like a truly local experience.
The quintessential Hunter Valley experience has to include a breathtaking hot-air-balloon flight with Balloon Aloft over Australia’s oldest wine region. There is no better way to take in everything this stunning location has to offer. It’s an early start, but so worth the effort, as you rise up with the sun and meander over the beautiful Hunter landscape.
Be sure to tag us on social media @rydgesresorthuntervalley to share your local experiences with us.
