Reviews: Balloon flight over the Mara

"Our first balloon flight and what a wonderful experience.

Didn't like getting up so early (!!) and I though the b'fast was a bit ordinary, but would highly recommend this experience - the pilot was very skilled in the way she moved the balloon up and down (almost to ground level)." Read more about this whole safari

"Loved our balloon ride!

We wished our pilot would have flown a bit lower as it was hard to see any wildlife because we were up so high but we still enjoyed the ride and the view of the sunrise!" Read more about this whole safari

"Very long early morning trip to Little Governor's Camp, which necessitated crossinng river by boat in the dark, for balloon flight. Very professionally managed flight which was over an hour at low level with a very smooth landing topped off by a superb bush breakfast." Read more about this whole safari

"The balloon company picked us up at our camp and drove us the the launch site. The balloon basket held 16 people. We rose up into the sky before sunrise and watched the sun rise over the mountains. We floated high above the trees, sometimes almost brushing against the tree tops and at other times about 15 feet off the ground. It was an amazing experience. Not the best for animal photography but the scenery was breathtaking. Afterwards a short drive to a champagne (sparkling wine) breakfast under an acacia tree. The balloon ride should be on everyone's itinerary." Read more about this whole safari
