Balloon Safari in the Serengeti

Home / Serengeti Balloon Safari

Have you ever wondered what birds see as they soar overhead or dreamt of looking down upon a vast stretch of open wilderness? Serengeti Balloon Safaris can turn that dream into reality and more. Beginning at dawn, as the sun begins to paint the sky with its first light, your adventure takes flight. You’ll ascend with the sun and float above the majestic Serengeti, enveloped in peaceful serenity.

Your expert guide will skillfully navigate you through varying altitudes and layers of air, revealing hidden corners of the Serengeti that few have the privilege to witness. At times, your balloon may skim the tops of the grasslands, while other moments may take you soaring to heights of 1000 feet or more.

Amidst this tranquil flight, remember to cast your gaze below. The bird’s-eye view provides a unique advantage for spotting wildlife from a distance. It’s quite likely you’ll encounter members of the ‘Big 5’ and the vast herds of the Great Migration. Although each balloon adventure is an unpredictable journey dictated by the wind, it typically lasts about an hour before your guide initiates the descent.

Upon touching the ground, a ‘champagne toast’ celebrates your incredible journey, followed by a bush breakfast. Dining in the wilderness you recently floated over is an unforgettable experience. As you savor your well-deserved breakfast, surrounded by nature, you may even have the company of passing animals. The balloon safari offers a unique perspective that is not to be missed when visiting the Serengeti.
