Flames from the hot air balloon burners light the pre-dawn darkness as crews inflate their craft. As the first pink tongues of sunlight flicker across the sky, the rainbow-coloured canopy fills and you’ll rise gently above the Masai Mara. Suspended in a basket beneath the envelope, you’ll experience a wildlife-viewing adventure from a very different perspective. What surprises many first-time balloonists is the absolute stillness: the silence as you float over the plains, forests and rivers of the Masai Mara.
The balloon will drift wherever the air currents take it, giving you plenty of chances for photography and video filming as the landscape unfolds beneath you. Your Kenyan hot air balloon safari finishes in the time-honoured tradition of balloon flights, with a champagne breakfast cooked wherever you land and a toast to mark your return to earth. Even if you’ve flown elsewhere, this offers a distinctive way to see the Mara.
