Our Hot Air Balloon Flights are scheduled to provide you with the best possible experience:

  • Best Time for Flights: Flights usually take place in the early morning hours, offering optimal weather conditions and stunning sunrise views. Departure times vary depending on the season but typically range from 5:00 AM to 7:00 AM.
  • Locations: Our flights take off from various locations across Tanzania, including the Serengeti National Park, Tarangire National Park, and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area specifically the Ndutu Region. Each location offers its own unique landscape and wildlife viewing opportunities.

 

The Process

  1. Preparation and Safety Briefing: Your hot air balloon adventure begins with a safety briefing conducted by our experienced pilot. Learn about the basic principles of hot air ballooning, safety procedures, and what to expect during your flight.
  2. Boarding the Balloon: Once briefed, you’ll climb aboard the spacious basket of the hot air balloon, where you’ll be joined by your pilot and fellow passengers. Watch in awe as the balloon is inflated and begins to rise gracefully into the sky.
  3. Takeoff and Flight: Feel the exhilaration as the balloon lifts off the ground, carrying you gently into the air. Drift serenely above the landscape, enjoying panoramic views of the savannah, forests, rivers, and wildlife below.
  4. Scenic Views and Wildlife Spotting: Keep your camera ready as you glide over Tanzania’s iconic landscapes, from sweeping plains to lush forests and winding rivers. Look out for wildlife such as elephants, giraffes, lions, and more, roaming freely in their natural habitat.
  5. Sunrise Spectacle: Marvel at the breathtaking colors of the sunrise painting the sky in shades of pink, orange, and gold. Capture stunning photos of the sunrise from your vantage point high above the ground, creating memories to treasure forever.
  6. Flight Duration: Enjoy approximately one to two hours of flight time, depending on weather conditions and the location of your flight. During this time, you’ll have ample opportunity to take in the sights and immerse yourself in the beauty of Tanzania from above.
  7. Safe Landing and Celebration: As your hot air balloon gently descends back to the ground, prepare for a smooth landing orchestrated by our skilled pilot. Upon landing, you’ll be greeted with a traditional champagne toast to celebrate your successful flight.
  8. Certificate of Flight: Upon completion of your hot air balloon flight, you’ll receive a personalized certificate commemorating your experience, signed by your pilot as a memento of your adventure.
