The crew was enthusiastic, friendly, and provided us safety information. The ride was wonderful, captivating, and peaceful, observing the landscape and herds of animals from the air. The breakfast afterwards was elegant and delicious. It was worth getting up at 4:30 am, and I don’t say that about most things.
Hello,
we had a great time in a hot air balloon in Tanzania last week with the company miracle experience and even landed standing up. Thanks for everything. Nicolas
I had a fantastic time in the balloon safari. Looking over the Serengeti from bird eye view was the best experience of the whole trip. Whole ride was very smooth and awe-inspiring. Only drawback was 1 hr gone very quickly.
the staff was very friendly and courteous, had wonderful time interacting with them.
Amazing experience! The flight was beautiful and so smooth - I wanted it to last forever. We glided low along the river and watched a baby hippo jump in, then climbed higher to get an incredible view of the northern Serengeti. Every minute was amazing.
It was an early morning but well worth it, the sunrise was beautiful. Getting in the basket seemed intimidating, but the ground crew was fantastic and made it so easy. Captain Jones explained everything so well and made the trip so fun. The landing was smooth and easy, and then a quick drive to breakfast. The ‘bush breakfast was delicious and so much fun. The whole experience was unforgettable and I would highly recommend it.
We went on a spectacular balloon safari, but this time in Serengeti. We saw many animals it was such a pleasant ride thanks to captain Barry and I hope to come again.
Well organized, precise and efficient. The balloon ride itself is fantastic and indescribable, you just have to experience this to understand! They take pictures, in addition to having a camera attached to the balloon.
The crew were efficient and professional, and funny at the same time.
Completely unique experience! Fantastic breakfast, with incredibly good food in great variations and quantities in a beautiful location.
Do not hesitate to book this activity, you will not regret it.
The hot air balloon was the best experience for us on our trip to Tanzania.
The view is incredible and our captain, Jones Temba, helped us find many animals and shared his knowledge with us.
The breakfast was delicious and the crew was very friendly.
Five stars experience!
It was a great ride. Have been on many hot air balloon rides in the past.
I make this one close to the top.
Moses the pilot was very well experienced and did an outstanding job, especially on the landing which is always difficult.
Do not miss this unique perspective of the land and of the migrating animals. We even saw a rare big cat along with the lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, hippos, etc. Our pilot Moses was clear, informative, inspiring, fun and obviously competent and well-trained, as was all of the crew.
The views were spectacular, the animals awe-inspiring, and the breakfast was better than anything I've had during my month in Tanzania. Served by a singing and dancing crew! The chef handled my special diet admirably.
The 'loo with a view' is not to be missed. :)
Everything was at the luxury level, which I would suggest is the only way to do this flight (unless you do this routinely and are bored.) Although I cannot imagine how this could become boring.
I have previously done a Serengeti balloon ride in 2019 (another company) but this one was by far the best. The quality is in the details, as they go the extra mile to ensure a great experience. Photographers on the ground to capture our group photos before takeoff - coffee provided as we wait, and you can take your coffee on the flight!! - camera connected to balloon to take group photos in the air - a wonderful breakfast menu enjoyed after the flight, with local singers providing entertainment...even a nice (and not cheap) certificate as a record of your flight.
I was hosting a photography group, and we were allowed to take our camera bags - with multiple cameras and lenses. I was not expecting that and it was a great bonus.
Our captain Rosa clearly loves her job. She was as entertaining as she was professional.
This is my 3rd hot air balloon ride and WOW this was for sure the best! We had the most amazing pilot Pradeep he was full of positive energy I wanted to ride the balloon even more after meeting him.
The views were spectacular truly once in a lifetime 💕 he made sure we had a smooth ride saw animals and crossed the river a few times.
NOONE should miss the opportunity of taking this ride.
The staff that took care of us from pick up to coffee to champagne to the most amazing breakfast with a lovely dance!
Everyone should be so proud of the AMAZING experience they offer
THANK YOU
A wonderful experience!
Capt. Bill was very professional, as were all the ground crew.
We also did a balloon ride in the Masai Mara (Kenya) with a different company - and this one was MUCH better.
Great photos from the event, and a wonderful breakfast.
Even had in-flight coffee!
It was my first Balloon Safari. I will never forget. The pilot was very professional an he has told a lot of the nature and animals we have seen. The breakfast after an the singing and dancing crew were so funny.
This was the first ballooning experience for our group of 4. To soar above the Serengeti in a balloon was just amazing. From the moment we were picked up at our camp, before dawn, and were cozy in a heated jeep, to the wonderful hot coffee and facilities available before the balloon ride, to the spectacular sensation of floating, seeing the magnificent sunrise and gaining a whole new perspective of the landscape and the animals, everything was perfect.
The landing was smooth; the champagne a delight, and breakfast - the best in out 2 weeks - delicious with one of the prettiest table settings imaginable in the middle of the bush! The entertainment, well that's a whole other story! Super fun, and all the Miracle staff are incredibly friendly and professional. Never had a moments concern and were delighted with the whole experience far beyond expectations. Many thanks to our captain and for giving us such a unique and special memory.
y mum booked this experience for my brother and I and I can honestly say that it’s one I’ll cherish forever. Being in the Serengeti itself is mind-blowing and it’s difficult to imagine a way to elevate that experience but Miracle Balloon Experience Safaris did just that (pun not intended).
I’ve been on a balloon safari before with a different company in Tarangire some years ago and while that was fun, everything pales in comparison to my time with Miracle Balloon Experience Safaris.
I despise early mornings so the early start made me skeptical initially but it was more than worth it. From the wonderfully knowledgeable guide to the modern, spacious safari car that picked us up just before dawn and transported us to the launch site where we were welcomed by a lovely team who supplied us with some much needed coffee to the simply stunning balloon safari we were taken on by the lovely flight crew all the way to the incredible breakfast we were given - this experience was more than worth the early wake up time.
We had a really delicious bush breakfast and they even made my mum a truly scrumptious chocolate cake as a surprise for her birthday. The loo with a view (you have to be there to understand it) made me laugh but I actually spotted a few giraffes so the safari really is constant.
I also managed to purchase a really warm and stunning green miracle balloon coat which I’ll definitely be wearing a lot now that I’m back in the UK.
While the facilities like the glass-floored balloon were top notch, I’d have to say that what really pulled it all together was the truly pleasant staff and their impressive attention to detail. It’s one thing to have great facilities, but to have to complemented by a team of staff who seem to truly love and care about their job is another thing entirely.
Well done Miracle Balloon Experience Safaris!! I couldn’t recommend you guys enough.
Excellent experience , the team is amazing very professional and friendly . The pick up cars are brand new and very professional driver . Coffee & Cookies before taking off , the captain ( Nick) is great!
After the air safari we got an amazing welcome from the team at the bush breakfast site , food was very good.
Complimentary Wi-Fi everywhere even on the balloon.
Everything was perfect --- beautiful skies, lots of animals, and a fantastic breakfast with entertainment at the end. It was a perfect way to end my safari days in Tanzania with an overview from the sky in a relaxing balloon ride.
Just finished a short safari in the Serengeti and the absolute highlight was my balloon safari with Miracle Experience. They are a brand new company but our pilot had 10 years experience flying in the Serengeti. The flight was mesmerizing and I felt completely safe.
Our pilot was Tanzanian and very professional and competent. We landed and we’re treated to a glass of champagne and then had an amazing breakfast set up for us in the middle of the plains. Spectacular and not to be missed.
The balloon ride was the ideal experience for our honeymoon. The ride was amazing, we got to see
many animals and the beautiful landscape of Serengeti from the sky.
The staff was very friendly and entertaining and we got a surprise from them because we were celebrating our honeymoon. The food was also very good.
Well organized, precise and efficient. The balloon ride itself is fantastic and indescribable, you just have to experience this to understand! They take pictures, in addition to having a camera attached to the balloon. The crew was efficient and professional and funny at the same time.
Completely unique experience! Fantastic breakfast, with incredibly good food in great variations and quantities in a beautiful location. Do not hesitate to book this activity, you will not regret it.
Safari Over The Serengeti with Miracle Experience Balloon ride was even more magical than I could have imaged. I consider myself afraid of heights and almost didn’t book this adventure but am so happy I did. Our pilot Moses made me feel completely comfortable through the entire trip including take off and landing. His expertise and enthusiasm for his job was refreshing and assuring. As was the experience and service from our driver Richard.
Everyone who had a part in this day seemed truly happy to have us as guest, from the ones who prepared the balloon to the ones who served us such a wonderful Bush Breakfast and all in between. The experience it’s self of floating over the Serengeti and spotting animals was just amazing.
My early morning balloon ride with the charming Pilot Bill of Miracle Experience in the Serengeti was just magical.. the only way to feel such a smooth, peaceful and gentle effortless glide is to get up there - there's no other way to experience that sensation. Seeing the animals and terrain from above was just a bonus! My group all agreed that the total experience is worth what seems like a hefty price - given the large ground crew, the quick pick up from where we landed - more than 20 or so miles from the "launch site," the traditional landing toast, and the abundant breakfast. Afterward, we learned that a significant portion of that fee actually goes to pay Tanzanian taxes.
I can't say enough about how impressed I am with the quality of our experience. Everything was well-thought-out and executed, leaving me and my siblings free to relax and enjoy our experience.
From the first interaction the night before when our safari driver, Freddy, came to our camp to let us know what to expect and ensure we had everything in order, we knew we were in good hands.
The next morning we were taken to the launch site where we were greeted by our Captain, Moses, and the staff who offered us coffee and cookies and showed us to the heaters and the comfortable, clean bathrooms. Moses gave an engaging history of ballooning and a clear outline of safety protocols, and then we loaded into the balloon and we're off.
Watching the sun rise over the Serengeti was unforgettable. For the next hour and 15 minutes we floated above the plains, taking in the magnificence that is Africa. The pilot skillfully guided the balloon, allowing us to see so many animals including lions, elephants, hippos out of the water, impalas, water bucks, hartbeests, zebras, wildebeests, and even a rare sighting of a caracal. Our landing was perfect and the ground crew greeted us with champagne and orange juice.
Last, but not least, we were taken to the balloon base for a delicious and beautifully prepared full breakfast. The amenities were once again luxurious and comfortable, including the "Loo With a View". One of my favourite parts of the morning was the staff greeting us with a song on arrival and regaling us with another on departure.
An added bonus was the professional photographer they have on staff to document the whole experience. And, the pictures were forwarded to us free of charge.
The entire experience was wonderful!
What an amazing experience! What a professional, well-run, and friendly organization!
We can’t thank Miracle Experience enough for our incredible balloon safari on 31st May.
It exceeded all expectations and was a truly once in a lifetime experience, followed by champagne and breakfast in the bush!
Special thanks to Richard for picking us up at 4am, driving us through the wilderness to the launch site and making sure we had lots of photos to make the memories last a life time 🥰
Would absolutely recommend this to anyone considering it!
Amazing experience! Visiting Tanzania is beautiful and from air is a most! Miracle Experience was prime company with 1st class service. From booking, day before orientation, the early pickup, the early morning- night safari prior balloon, the balloon safari, the breakfast and their staff all were fantastic!
Fully recommend. We saw lions hunting in the night, hyenas, a serval cat, a pack of female lions with their babies and all night animals. Later at the balloon another view of the savanna and it’s life. Breath taking sunrise with great colors. Breakfast was delicious and joyful with the staff sons and dance celebrating birthdays and even our anniversary.
My sister and I had our first hot air balloon experience and it was a memorable one especially that we did it at Serengeti and made more special by Miracle Experience. We were greeted by a dozen lions on our early morning drive to the take off site.
Our pilot Bill was great. We flew close to the ground for most of the flight for us to see animals on the ground zebras, lone elephant, lions with cubs, gazelle, ostriches, hippos. We had great views of Serengeti as well whenever we went up high.
We had coffee available up in the air. After the more than an hour flight, we had champagne and went to their camp for a wonderful breakfast. The staff was great from the time they bid us farewell on take off and greeted us upon landing to serving a delicious and filling breakfast. Go book your hot air balloon with Miracle Experience and you will surely have a great time!
Thank you to Miracle for a fantastic experience. Captain's Bill and Rosa were very thorough, thoughtful and informative throughout the entire day. The rest of the staff and team were also very helpful. The views and ride were terrific, but so was the breakfast experience. They made it very engaging and fun for everyone there. I would highly recommend Miracle for your Hot Air Balloon Safari.
Couples
Received this balloon trip for my birthday 5 days before going (we live in Arusha) and decided to take advantage of this unique opportunity to propose to my girlfriend.
It was seriously last minute stuff. The balloon trip and the whole experience was beyond amazing, but I have to give a big huge thumbs up to the staff who, with less than 12h notice, managed to conjure magic in those endless plains.
They produced a beautiful pink cake with the words 'she said yes!'written on it, the local staff gave us a whole performance after breakfast with traditional dancing and singing and they even flew in fresh roses from Arusha that same morning.
So yes, wonderful wonderful experience, made all the more magical by a wonderful wonderful team who all went the extra mile to make that day extraordinary. Big shout out to our guide Abdul who coordinated the whole shebang!
So...I booked this the night before because I was worried about the high cost plus never being on a balloon, the heights and early pick up I went back and forth for months. I ended up booking due to guides letting me know it’s the best thing to do. So it was just me as no one else in my party wanted to go.I was picked up 4:30am the interesting drive in the dark and seeing different animals.
We arrived at the place for balloon inflating there was coffee/tea set up as watched the balloons and also a rest room. Elephants were close by watched them as balloons inflated. I met the pilot “Bob” who was extremely kind and let me know that I will be ok alone and he can set up in corner nice view. We had to jump in the basket...that was a little complicated but made it in. I never noticed the balloon going up as it’s very smooth and slow.
Once in the air my god. We saw over a 100 hippos, giraffe, zebra, buffalo, other balloons. Sometimes we were higher and sometimes lower that we grazed the tree tops. It was not scary or rocky I can’t believe I almost didn’t do this. It was stunning to watch the sunrise and Serengeti. Bob kept us informed of going high/low what to expect and where we are headed answered all our questions and kept us informed.
The landing was so smooth didn’t feel us hit the ground. We jumped out, had a champagne toast and off we went to a beautiful breakfast set up in the bush. The staff did a nice welcome dance and song and breakfast was great. Tanzanian donuts, eggs made to order, fruit, potatoes, baked beans. Oh the bathroom loo with a view was cute. Bring your phone.
After we were given certificates and dropped off at the visiting center to meet your guide to continue your own game drive. I highly recommend this experience if this is your first time with a balloon ride take the chance while here. Even better if Bob is your pilot!
Totally worth getting up at 4 am, and worth the money….a breathtaking experience. The staff was courteous and made us comfortable from beginning to end. The views were spectacular, and the breakfast was a 5-star experience in the bush. Glad we went!
Definitely the highlight of our African adventure. A wonderful flight on a beautiful day with Captain Berry. Spectacular sights of the Serengeti from above. Highly recommend for a don't miss experience.
Despite the 4.30am start, it was a wonderful morning. A delightful driver picked us up & drove us to the site. We spotted several animals along the way, even in total darkness. On arrival at the launch site, coffee and heaters were available, it was quite chilly.
We met Bob, our wonderful pilot, and loaded into the basket- another interesting experience! Then off we went, Up, Up & Away, in a beautiful balloon! Great animal spotting. Unfortunately we had to come down after a wonderful flight.
Landed to the champagne toast, then off to a fabulous breakfast in the Bush, and the “loo with a view” Great Morning, worth every penny.
We had a terrific flight over the Serengeti and a good landing. We flew 1.20 hrs., some extra time 🤩 so nice they make pictures during the flight and without any extra costs you receive them by mail. The breakfast was great in a nice setting.
And of course we drunk Champagne after landing, keep up the good work Miracles so it stays a miracle 🤩
Couples
Absolute highlight of our trip to the Serengeti!! This is what dreams are made of!! Thank you for the most incredible morning 🌄 it was our first balloon trip and worth every single penny!! I could not stop smiling! As for the breakfast afterwards, wowwwww!! 5 star service!!
Brilliant experience. Everything was great. The pilot was very friendly. The breakfast was an experience in its self. The photographer Daniel was also very good.
A totally awesome experience, the crew was very friendly and professional. I can't think how I could have been better.
if you are in the Serengeti this is a must.
What an amazing experience!!! Staff so so kind, very friendly and very professional!!!
We were with a group of 10 and all fit well in 1 basket. Everyone was relaxed and we enjoyed it so much. Breakfast after the balloon safari.....speechless....beautiful environment, staff so lovely, and breakfast like a 5-star hotel. The toilet with the best view ever ;-)
We really recommend this company to everyone who wants to book a balloon safari!!
Must Do! The staff of Miracle made every second, unforgettable! Exciting! From hilarious Captain Barry, a wonderful breakfast, to the loo with a view, every detail was spot on! This smile hasn’t left my face!
Superb experience. There are no words to describe the view of the Serengeti you get from up there.
But the experience is not limited to the balloon flight. Every second of it shows wonderful customer service. You do feel pampered. All the staff is genuinely invested in making your day the best and every detail is carefully planned.
And our pilot Barry made our flight so funny and relaxed. Totally recommend this.
Have always wanted to visit Serengeti and doing the Miracle Hot Air Balloon experience was just an amazing addition to our trip. Captain Bill and his crew were all very welcoming and all ground staff were absolutely fantastic. We had a great flight with amazing views of the vast landscape that covers Serengeti followed by a lovely bush breakfast after the flight.
The entire experience from when you are picked up from your camp through to the end of the experience is very well coordinated with well trained and friendly staff. Would definitely recommend to anybody visiting Serengeti.
Superb experience! Impeccable reception and organization! Despite a “bumpy” landing (watch out for fragile people…) it was a wonderful memory. Well done 👍
Great experience, start to finish. It was fun watching balloons being inflated and being obstructed on how to enter the basket and prepare for ‘lift-off. Floating above the animals and tree tops was breathtaking.
The champaign on landing and the following breakfast was great. I had recently celebrated a birthday, so there was singing while bringing in a cake!
My only recommendation is to provide assistance for folks (like me) needing help getting out of the basket!
Just went with my family on a hot air balloon ride through the Serengeti and it was exceptional. Our pilot Moses was wonderful. High energy and full of knowledge. The sunset took my breath away and seeing the animals from above took it to a whole other level.
Breakfast afterwards did not disappoint. It was elegant and tasty!
Totally worth adding on to any trip. It will be an experience you will cherish for the rest of your life.
During our trip to Tanzania, we had the opportunity to do hot air balloon flight with Miracle Experience - Safari From the Sky. This is was a first class experience from pickup, launch site facilities, actual flight, and breakfast afterward.
Our driver to and from was Muhidini. We encountered lions crossing the road on the way to the launch site and the vehicles took time to stop for spotting. Pilot for the flight was Bill. Good guy with a tremendous amount of balloon piloting around the world.
Breakfast afterward was very good and must mention the "Loo with the View" at the breakfast area. Very enjoyable start to our day. Strongly recommend if the opportunity arises
Really awesome experience, these guys know what they do! Very professional, on time, good information. Perfect flight and good food after.
Nice people.
A must!!
We loved the balloon flight: everything was perfectly organized, from the pick-up at our camp, the catering and the restroom at the start place, the pictures during the flight, and the celebration and the breakfast after landing. This all contributed to an unforgettable moment.
The pilot, Capt Jones, was mastering his balloon with great precision, at a moment we flew just a few meters above the Mara river and could clearly see the hippos. The landing was smooth and at no moment did we feel unsafe.
From the very early pickup at camp and drop off point this was a fantastic experience. I had previously done the ride in 2019 with another company but this one with Captain Rosa was so much better. Coffee before, and after.
So much information from a lady who truly loves her job. We travelled just over 16 kms and were in the air for over an hour. Wow. Lots of game below and a perfect landing near wildebeest and two lions. This was followed by champagne and then breakfast and staff singing. Thank you to all of you for a a great experience. It was excellent and Rosa…you are an asset.
Loved your vibrance.
We had a great experience on this balloon safari starting with the cheerful attitude of the driver that picked us up from the lodge. The balloon pilot was wonderful - very experienced and got us close to lots of animals including a trio of cheetahs chasing a warthog. (The warthog escaped!)
We were pleasantly surprised when the staff brought us an anniversary cake at the breakfast! They also sang to us. It was a memorable experience we won’t forget!
My best experience ever... From the lodge and back, everything was amazing... The guides know exactly what to do, everything was smooth and each vehicle got personal attention from their guide throughout the experience... The pilot kept updating us regularly and I must say that the bush breakfast was the best part... Asante sana Guys..!
This company significantly exceeded our expectations. In the jeep on the way to the launch site, the driver showed us a number of animals only seen in the dark, such as cervil cats and kangaroo rabbits(?). The balloon ride itself was terrific. We saw zebra, wildebeest, lions, lots of antelopes and other animals. We felt safe the whole time. Probably the most spectacular part of the event was the post-ride breakfast.
It was a sit-down breakfast with multiple options and courses, all with linens, menus, etc. It was the fanciest meal we had in our 3.5 weeks in Africa. I have done other balloon rides, and the post-breakfast part is typically continental style with little flair or flavor or comfort.
This was more of a 5-star experience given the circumstances, of course. I can't imagine any organization doing a more spectacular job.
Miracle Experience is a great safari company with a distinct care and attention to detail. Be it from the pick up with their uniquely colored and identifiable safari vehicles to the wonderful members of staff, welcome tea or coffee at the early morning take off site, to the champagne welcome on landing, not to mention the breakfast in the wild experience.
They really know how to handle their customers. Well done.
My new husband and I did a hot air balloon safari as part of our honeymoon! It was absolutely epic! A total highlight of our trip!!!
Honestly couldn’t recommend this more. From pick up from our lodge to the perfect breakfast after the ride we loved every minute. The views are breath taking, the customer service totally professional and the pilots all very friendly.
Wonderful experience. We've seen a lot of animals from above. The pilot and whole crew made us feel very save. A perfect breakfast afterwards made the experience complete. I would recommend this to everybody travelling in the Serengeti.
This balloon ride truly felt like a MIRACLE EXPERIENCE! With all of my family - from sons to wives and grands - being there to watch the awe, surprise, and joy across each face was priceless! Moses was an incredible pilot as he brought the experience to life with his knowledge and fun! Moses asked us to be silent for a moment while he did a 360 with the balloon and we just took the beauty of the sunrise, the running giraffes, the Serengeti expanse, and the panoramic view and it honestly became a spiritual moment taking in what God created. We saw antelopes, elephants, wildebeests, lions, giraffes (my fave!), tons of huge hippos, and even a crocodile and we could almost touch the buffalos! And the special breakfast after … INCREDIBLE! This was at the very top of my favorites list for our safari vacay … It’s a MUST!!! This was a memory to treasure forever!
Amazing, calm, comfortable and easy! Highly recommended for anyone.
I was concerned about safety, but the highly experienced pilot (Moses Msuya) put us all at ease. The ground crew was meticulously trained, and handled everything competently and efficiently. Floating above the Great Migration was an incredible treat. You won't believe it until you experience it, but even the washroom facilities were AMAZINGLY above and beyond! Good people, doing it right.
One of the best experience I've ever had!
• Very professional balloon pilot (the best in Canada!), called Jason;
• Incredible passionate Safari guide called Roger :-) ;
• Welcoming and enthusiastic team...
Serengeti from 1200 feet in the air looks very different from Serengeti at ground level. The balloon safari was a terrific experience, and a bird's eye view of Serengeti was fantastic. The flight was smooth and enjoyable and the lovely bush breakfast was the icing on the cake. I highly recommend it.
Thank you Hasnain, Barry and team!
The kids and I had a fantastic balloon ride over the Serengeti and it was great to have the balloon to ourselves! Thank you so much for a wonderful experience!
From the guide, David, who picked us up in a miracle vehicle….on what was a “night drive” to the balloon launch site ….we saw lions, buffaloes, hyaenas….to Barry, our pilot and the crew …. All a great, warm and super friendly team!
So much information relayed to us by Barry with his great sense of humor added to the lovely experience we had.
Indeed it was magical up there as the sun rose over the vast unending plains teeming with wildlife. A different perspective, a different experience, silent balloon and we felt very safe.
Miracle balloons are “different” …. They have Glass floors, modern baskets with binoculars, and the breakfast too was superb!
Their “loo with a view” is indeed a super touch as is every little detail you will see that Miracle has - which “must” be experienced…. This makes it truly a “miracle experience”.
An absolute must addition to any safari itinerary!!
This was my first balloon ride ever, and certainly will not be my last. Captain Pradeep and his crew made it special. It was smooth, the landing was better than some airplane landings. Seeing wildlife from another perspective was wonderful. The breakfast was delicious and the entire staff was efficient, friendly, and absolutely amazing. Definitely will do it again.
Just amazing and was touched by their kind hospitality to celebrate our anniversary with a delicious cake...the backdrop of a sunrise on the air balloon is simply stunning
Superb experience! The staff is friendly and helpful! The balloon safari lasted for approx. 1 hour, followed by a decent breakfast and cultural entertainment.
My only wish was that the safari had a longer duration.
Very good company and experience! Our driver came to our lodge the night before the flight to brief us. We then left our hotel in the early morning for the launch site. We were given coffee and biscuits. The balloon was loaded quickly and we had a nice 1 hr 20 min flight. We saw hippos, giraffe, gazelle and hyenas. The breakfast after the flight was very good. The staff sang some songs that are forever stuck in my head! The pilot and staff were all incredibly nice!
Family
I had made balloon in Arizona, Mexico, Myanmar, Salt Lake City, Morocco, Turkey, etc. By far this it’s the most professional and high quality company ever.
From the welcome, all the feedback, quality of balloon's and equipment, training of the pilots to the wonderful breakfast, clean restrooms ( toilets ), perks to buy, and warm service from begging to end.
Most amazing experience watching the sunrise from a hot air balloon over the Serengeti. Nothing like watching giraffes run after your balloon shadow. Excellent service from start to finish. Loved the whole experience from take off to the delicious breakfast. I highly recommend! Don’t miss this :)
Your experience doesn't start as the balloon is taking off. it starts the night earlier and ends long after the balloon touched down! I am not going to spoil it for you. you MUST find it for yourself! one important point: the guys are safety orientated!
We had a fantastic time on the Hot Air Balloon ride in the Northern Serengeti region!! The early morning rise was worth it, the sky was beautiful, and we had a quick nighttime safari along the way, followed by some warm coffee/tea and biscuits. The hot air balloon ride was Great and we were lucky enough to be with Capt Jones who was super! When we landed we celebrated with Prosecco and were led to a wonderful breakfast. The team sang and danced and gave us a special tribute as it was our honeymoon. I highly recommend this tour, it was definitely one of our highlights whilst on safari!
The hot air balloon ride and breakfast were absolutely incredible. Of course, flying over the Safari is beautiful, and a highlight of our trip, but this company has thought of every detail and makes the whole experience truly exquisite. The operations are seamless, the ride was amazing and fun thanks to our Pilot Captain Barry, breakfast was huge and delicious in a stunning setting and the energy of the team singing songs and telling stories made it so much fun. Thank you for such a memorable and fun Safari! Asante Sana!
Our family of 12 (ages 13-72) never could have dreamed that we could go up in a single hot air balloon together… but miracles happen!!! The Miracle Experience with Moses as our pilot will be one of the absolute top experiences in all of our lives even if we live to 100 years old! It was magical to fly over giraffes running alongside us & dozens of hippos diving into the water beneath us & hear hundreds of wild Buffalo with the balloon & seeing a very full crocodile resting on the bank all at sunrise… spectacular doesn’t do it justice! Then going to eat a spectacular breakfast & even the loo with a view was unique! Highly recommend!!
The experience was absolutely breathtaking! The staff (especially Moses) was exceptional. It was our first time ballooning and they made it incredibly comfortable. Seeing the wildlife from the air offered a completely different perspective. Highly recommended!!
I It is worth doing this activity. The people are very nice. We celebrated my wife's birthday and everything went very well. The vision is different, you can't imagine seeing the animals from the sky. Highly recommended. all experience. It was our first balloon trip, and everything was perfect!!!
This was the best thing we did on safari. The ride was early, it was dark and the roads muddy, we had to wait while everyone worked together to help the truck towing the balloon out of the mud. What an adventure, we waited while the crew set up the balloon and a tented toilet with river views.
The ride was magical, mostly low level, just amazing. Capt. Barry was very competent and informative. Our champagne landing and bush breakfast were fantastic, the crew sang for us and had a cake for our wedding anniversary. Just an amazing experience,!
Very well organized trip to every small detail. Friendly staff and very experienced pilot Dave from U.K. The ride was about 1h 20 min long and we saw quite of few animals. The breakfast served after the balloon ride was very festive and fun. Balloon ride is very safe and definitely do it, if you have the opportunity.
What a fabulous thing. Float it over the Serengeti and see the wildlife from a different perspective. Captain Jones made plus feel very safe. We even saw a leopard.
We had a magical balloon safari. Taking off early morning, and watching the sunrise, the plains, and the wildlife from the hot air balloon was an incredibly beautiful & memorable experience. The arrangements - from pick-up at the lodge to safety briefings to a wonderful breakfast - were immaculate & brilliantly executed. Our pilot Rosa was exceptional - knowledgeable, competent, and witty. The staff who served breakfast were superb & most friendly & hospitable. Interestingly, the owner (Hasnain) also joined our safari but was most unassuming & helpful in taking photos and providing viewing tips. Most highly recommended!
This was an incredible experience. Our first balloon ride. Captain Temba and the crew were very safe, caring, and entertaining. Our ride went over the north Serengeti in the midst of the migration. We saw lions and many animals. Simply breathtaking. At the conclusion, we had a wonderful to-order breakfast served to us. Would highly recommend it to anyone.
The most amazing experience for the whole family......First-class service first-class people first-class memories even the breakfast were amazing...... Well done captain Barry and the fantastic miracle team !!!

WOW WOW WOW. No way can I explain the total experience we had with Captain Moses Msuya (our Balloon Pilot). We hit the jackpot with him. The trip to Serengeti was already a trip of a lifetime, but it's a vacation within a vacation when you are with Moses in a hot air balloon. The hot air balloon ride was simply magical and 100% the highlight of our trip.
You will NOT regret this once in a lifetime activity. Ask for Moses!!!
