Masai Mara Balloon Safari: Enjoy An Unforgettable Hot Air Balloon Experience

Overview

  • Duration: Approximately 1 hour (flight) plus breakfast experience
  • Tour Type: Guided Hot Air Balloon Safari
  • Location: Masai Mara, Kenya

A Masai Mara Balloon Safari is one of the most magical experiences the Mara offers, providing an unforgettable way to witness the landscapes, wildlife, and sweeping savannah from the skies. Gliding silently over the Masai Mara at dawn, you’ll take in the incredible wildlife below and end with a luxurious breakfast served on the open plains.

The Balloon Safari Experience

Your adventure begins with an early start. Around 5:30 a.m., you’ll wake up to a warm cup of tea and set off for the balloon’s launch site, where your professional, fully qualified balloon pilot will welcome you. As the balloon inflates, you’ll board the basket just as the sun begins to illuminate the sky.

The hour-long flight takes you drifting over the Mara’s breathtaking scenery, providing a stunning bird’s-eye view of the savannah below. The gentle wind guides the balloon’s path, allowing you to witness the serene beauty of the Mara, watch wildlife in action, and even hover above the Mara River to catch a glimpse of hippos in their pools. The early morning light enhances the colors of the plains and creates spectacular photo opportunities.

As the sun rises, casting a golden hue over the savannah, the balloon’s silence (apart from the occasional sound of the burners) offers a peaceful and awe-inspiring perspective on the reserve.

Landing and Breakfast

After an exhilarating flight, you’ll descend gently to the open plains, where breakfast awaits you. Enjoy freshly prepared breakfast dishes as you soak up the tranquil morning ambiance of the savannah.
