Itinerary Summary
Get romantic with our Balloon safaris where you experience the wilderness of East Africa, flying over the plains teeming with herds of wild life in the early morning. Normally a balloon safari begins between 6 am and lasts for around 1-2 hours. This will give you an aerial view of the magnificent for several square kilometers of the game park. Balloon safaris are held regularly only in the Serengeti and take off from designated sites (in the Seronera area) where the disturbance to animals is kept to a minimum. In Kenya the balloon safari is on Maasai Mara in any of the Mara Lodges. Your safari vehicle drops you off at the take off site and picks you up from your landing site. The safari is followed by a champagne breakfast in the bush, a fitting end to your memorable flight in the wild. Maximum in a balloon: 12 adults
The balloon ride
At dawn we take off, rising as the sun rises and float in whichever direction the winds of the morning take us.
Your pilot can precisely control the altitude of your balloon: sometimes flying at treetop height, sometimes lower, offering a unique perspective and great photographic opportunities of the wildlife below.
At other times he will ascend to 1000 ft. (300 m) or more to see the
enormity and wonderful panorama of the Serengeti. From time to time the pilot increases more heat into the balloon with the powerful whisper fitting end to your memorable flight in the wild.
