There is nothing as magical
as floating over herds of wildlife in the Masai Mara in a colourful
hot air balloon. It’s a great way to see the game and the savannah
plains without the intrusion of vehicles and loads of other people
all trying to do the same thing.
Balloon flights start shortly after dawn, when the air is cool and
calm and the animals are at their most active. The balloon blow-up
is part of the show, and once the balloon rises, passengers have the
chance to watch the sunrise high above the plains. The flight is magically
silent, save for the hiss of the burner. The pilot steers the balloon
over canopies of trees and woodland, dipping down to get closer to
the game on the plains.
After the landing you'll enjoy a champagne breakfast under the arms
of an Acacia tree to celebrate your flight, and a flight certificate
is issued on completion of the balloon safari.
