A typical balloon safari will depart at dawn (usually 06:15) and will take you over the Maasai Mara as the sun rises over the plains and casts a spectacular light over the scenery below you. It is a unique way to view the wildlife and your experienced pilot can control the altitude of the balloon so you can soar above the Mara or skim the treetops below you.

Floating high up in the skies above the Masai Mara in a hot air balloon is the ultimate safari experience. The landscape below is a never-ending exciting mixture of riverine forests, sprawling savannahs, towering escarpments, and rugged rivers. Land to enjoy a champagne breakfast surrounded by the beauty of the incredible ecozystem before enjoying a game drive back to camp.
