and the ultimate African safari experience. This can be
arrange in Kenya (Masai Mara and Taita Hills) and

5:00 am: Collection from your Serengeti (Central) and
Masai Mara lodge or camp, and transfer you by Land rover
to the launch site. Here you will meet your pilot,
receive a briefing and watch the inflation of your
balloon.
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' or more to see
the enormity and wonderful panorama of the Serengeti.
From time to time the pilot must put more heat into the
balloon with the powerful whisper burners. In between
these burns, there is silence apart from the natural
sounds below

conditions, on landing you celebrate in the traditional
manner with champagne (well, an excellent sparkling
