Hot Air Balloon

Lift off at dawn to float in silence across the African plains

HOT AIR BALLOONING

Experience the breathtaking beauty of the Serengeti National Park, Masai Mara or the Sossusvlei on a once-in-a-lifetime hot air balloon flight. At dawn, rise as the sun greets the day and float in whichever direction the winds of the morning take you.

During a hot air balloon safari in Africa, your skilled pilot has precise control over the balloon’s altitude, allowing for a unique and varied perspective of the wildlife and landscapes below. At times, the balloon may fly at treetop height or even lower, offering incredible opportunities for close-up views and stunning photographs of the animals. Other times, the balloon may ascend to heights of 1000 feet or more, providing a breathtaking panoramic view of the vastness and beauty of the national park.

Throughout the flight, the pilot will periodically inject more heat into the balloon using the powerful whisper burners, maintaining the desired altitude and direction. In the intervals between these bursts of heat, a serene silence envelops the balloon, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the natural sounds and tranquility of the environment below.

A hot air balloon safari offers a truly extraordinary opportunity to witness the sweeping plains of Africa from a bird’s eye perspective. As you soar through the air, you’ll marvel at the sight of tiny dots on the landscape, which come alive as you approach closer. Dramatically striped zebras, majestic elephants making their way to a waterhole, playful warthogs foraging in the grass, and the subtle swishing of golden lion tails under the shade of trees all unfold before your eyes.

Floating gently through the sky, your gaze will be drawn to every corner, capturing the beauty and excitement of this incredible wilderness. The adrenaline rush and overwhelming sense of euphoria make this a truly unforgettable experience, where very little can hide from your view.

After the balloon safari, a champagne breakfast awaits, allowing you to savor the moment and reflect on the breathtaking adventure you’ve just experienced. It’s important to note that flights may occasionally be canceled due to adverse weather conditions such as high winds or poor visibility. Safety is paramount, and the decision to proceed with a flight is always based on the well-being of passengers.
