(SINGAPORE) From sailing the sea to floating in the air. Ducktours, the company that popularised the boat on wheels, is now reaching for the sky.

Ducktours and its partners are putting $2.5 million into the world's largest tethered helium balloon. It will hover at 150 metres, filled with 6,500 cu m of helium.

Some 40 crew took 12 hours to inflate the French-made balloon yesterday.

A wire cable anchors the balloon to the ground through a hydro-electric winch. Named the DHL balloon, it is scheduled to take its first passengers on April 27.

A 10-minute airborne experience, available daily from 11am to 10pm, will cost $23 for adults and $13 for children aged 3 to 12.The balloon adventure is at Tan Quee Lan Street, beside Bugis MRT station. It can carry a maximum of 29 passengers and is a joint venture by Aerophile Balloon S Pte Ltd and Vertical Adventure Pte Ltd
