Experience the feeling of gently rising above the Serengeti on a hot-air balloon safari. Flights are also offered over Tarangire and Singita Grumeti, giving guests a unique way to see Tanzania’s wilderness from above. From the first light of sunrise to the movement of wildlife below, the flight offers wide open views, peaceful moments, and excellent opportunities for photography.

This experience is ideal for families, friends, groups, and anyone looking to enjoy the national park from a different perspective.

The morning begins with an early pickup. Guests are transferred to the launch site, where warm drinks and light snacks are served as the crew completes the final balloon preparations. A simple and clear safety briefing is then conducted to ensure everyone feels comfortable before take-off.

Flight Experience

• Take-off around 6:30 AM, depending on weather conditions.
• Watch the sunrise spread across the plains.
• Spot wildlife such as elephants, giraffes, buffalo, antelope herds, and birds from above.
• During migration months, large groups of wildebeest may also be visible.
• Landings vary depending on the wind, sometimes smooth, sometimes gently bumpy.
• A small bubbly celebration follows after landing, continuing the traditional balloon safari toast.

While in the air, the pilot guides the balloon across different parts of the landscape, pointing out animal movements and areas of interest. From above, it becomes easier to follow wildlife as they cross grasslands, gather near water, or graze in shaded areas. The flight remains calm and steady, giving guests time to enjoy each sighting without rush.

Bush Breakfast Experience

After landing, guests are driven to a prepared bush breakfast in a quiet wilderness setting.

• Simple, scenic outdoor setup

Wildlife sightings often appear along the short drive to the breakfast area, adding to the excitement of the morning. The experience is arranged so guests move smoothly from the flight to the meal, while maintaining the same serene atmosphere throughout.

Amid the beauty of nature, tables are neatly arranged and meals are freshly prepared. The setting allows guests to continue enjoying the landscape while having a hot breakfast in the open air.
