Sunset Balloons
Sunset Balloons from Mario Kart Tour
Appears in Mario Kart Tour

The Sunset Balloons are a High-End glider in Mario Kart Tour. Introduced in the Sunset Tour, they are the signature glider of Peach (Explorer), Yoshi (Kangaroo) and Builder Toadette. Indicated by the name, the glider is a variant of the Cloud Glider with a color scheme similar to a sunset sky and also that of the Sunset Cloud kart. Unlike the Cloud Glider, this glider increases the chances of getting Bananas from Item Boxes and the number of points awarded for landing hits with them.

Availability

Starting from the Space Tour, the Sunset Balloons are available in regular tour pipes, including the All-Clear Pipe.

As of the Battle Tour, it is also a part of the Daily Selects lineup.
