I was wondering...

 

Are there any hotair balloons rides here in Doha or in Qatar??

Is there a company to contact???

 

I think it will be very cool to take a ride in a hot air balloon over Doha...

Para sailing is not high enough 

 

we all know the higher we get in the air the colder it will be so the hot weather is not an issue. And the cold air isn't either because the malls are filed with ice cold air...

 

So it is a big miss. to bad.... because it is possible...........

I think the reason why we don't have it in Qatar is the weather.

No one wants to ride a hot air balloon in summer weather that last most of

the year, and if there is a company then it will only relay on the short spring

season.

And now a days with the global warming, and the changes of weather we’ve

seen this year. God knows what kind of whether we are going to have in upcoming

years.

If there is one, it might be a nice idea for a QLSG outing.

notice the bowl of dusts blanketted entire Doha?

 

this is why hot air balloon doesn't click here... 

 

what else you may enjoy aside from viewing?

 

if the ride will worth, better to take a day flight... more safe...
