Ballooning for All Ages like Children

While you may feel concerned about bringing your children on a hot air balloon safari, we can assure you that it is totally safe. During your booking, you will be asked a few questions about the general age, weight, and height of your child to determine if it is possible to take them with you on this adventure.

This will ensure that you will be informed well in advance of the feasibility of the trip to avoid unnecessary expenses, stress, and disappointment. We, however, recommend that your child be a little over four feet tall to guarantee they can see over the edge of the wicker basket and enjoy the view of Serengeti and its wildlife.

A hot air balloon experience is sure to be enriching and fun for a child. You will be able to share this extraordinary moment as a family and spot herds of wild animals galloping or simply lounging around the fields. It is also the perfect occasion to initiate your child to the joys of flying free as a bird in a safe and controlled environment.

Adults and the elderly are usually our most common clientele and are gladly welcomed aboard. While there is no typical age or height restrictions for this age group, the riders should, as far as possible, withstand remaining on their feet for the duration of the flight as well as have a minimum sense of mobility to climb into the basket.

Once again, you will be asked about health and possible disabilities during your booking to ensure special needs be considered for the smooth running of the trip. Furthermore, all our pilots and staff are trained in First Aid and Safety Assurance for a secure balloon safari.
