Balloon Safaris
A balloon safari is very definitely an adventure that belongs at the top of your bucket list. Africa shows off beneath you as you float gently through the beautiful blue sky.
The feeling of weightlessness, the sense of space and freedom, and the incredible perspective that the height provides will render you speechless. With the sun peeking up over the horizon beyond, with the darkness turning to light, and with the shimmer of gold on the savannah below, the beauty is more than overwhelming.
Drifting over the endless plains of the Serengeti, or floating above the absolute abundance of the Masai Mara, you will be carried over game path after game path. This crisscross maze of winding routes will lead you to herds of wildebeest, zebra, elephants, lions, and even tiny scrub hares. This completely unique panorama gives way to an exciting new level of appreciation. The bush tells a much more complete story from the sky… if only we could stop time and suspend ourselves there for the entire day. Oh the things we would see! To give you an idea of the awe-inspiring experience that awaits you, we’ve got a short video for you to see here.
Up and down you go… dropping in to check on the hippos and the crocodiles in the rivers. A few big, wide-mouthed, hippo yawns will welcome you, the Fish Eagle’s morning calls will greet you, and the gurgling of the rapids below will relax you. With photo opportunities aplenty, the trip always seems to go by far too quickly and you will wish that you could be up there, in paradise, forever.
After your magic carpet ride over the exquisite African bushveld, you will be treated to a delicious 5-star Champagne Breakfast fit for a king, laid out impeccably, and set up in the middle of nowhere. Absolute bliss!
Balloon Safaris are on offer in both the Serengeti and the Masai Mara so please do let us know if you’d be keen to go on this once-in-a-lifetime adventure!
