We Normally use the specialist company https://miracleexperience.co.tz/ please do visit their website for further information.

Serengeti Balloon Safari

The balloon experience starts before dawn. Depending on your camp’s location, you will be collected as early as 4:00 a.m. and taken to the balloon launch site. As the balloon’s huge envelope is filled by fans powered by a mobile generator, you will be briefed on safety precautions and what you are likely to see. Finally, with the balloons still safety tethered, you climb aboard at about 06:30, just as the sun is about to break above the horizon. The basket is quite deep, with a compartment and rails to grasp for safety and to brace yourself. When everyone is on board, the pilot starts the burner, the balloon is released and you lift off.

For the next hour (flight times vary from 50-70 minutes) you drift above the plains with the winds tracked by the ground crew in their vehicle. Depending on conditions you may fly high over the forest peering into vultures’ nets and watching baboons walking in their treetop roosts, or swoop just a few meters above the dew-covered grass as zebra and antelope scatter. skilled pilots can follow the stream to glide just yards above snorting hippos or pride of lions drinking water and skim the savannah how enough to capture aerial wildlife photos for much of the flight, you’ll soar like a tawny eagle trough the dawning landscape as the sun transforms from a burnished orb on the shadowy horizon to brilliant disc above the plains. you may have other balloons accompanying your flight.

Landings vary: as you descend, the balloon may drag the basket onto its side, leaving the passengers grasping the rails in a giggling cluster of arms and legs: or if the breeze is kind your pilot may execute the perfect finish setting the basket upright onto the suitable ground as the balloons collapse neatly to one side.
A full bush breakfast will be waiting for you land with photos and certificates as a part of the fun
You’ll continue your day with game drives and other activities, depending on what you’ve planned with your guide.
