"Absolutely fabulous !Run by a most professional company , the flight is from beginning to end a magic experience out of the world.

I insist on the competence and professionalism of the crew ( safety advice, very few people in the basket...).A world of a difference with a prior ballooning experience in Lao with a Chinese company !!!

The breakfast set in the middle of the desert with champagne and gorgeous homemade food was outstanding.

Only "negative" point: Namib Sky Balloon Safaris have stopped operating a shuttle between Sossusvlei Desert Lodge and their place." Read more about this whole safari

"An incredible experience.

If your budget stretches to it- this is a must do.

A very smoothly run operation over some of the most scenic landscapes in the world, followed by a champagne breakfast in the desert." Read more about this whole safari

"Apologies for the cliche, but it was an absolutely amazing experience. If you are in any doubts, just do it.

The operation is totally professional and we felt absolutely secure. The views are amazing and we both had big smiles on our faces for the rest of the day.

We'd never been up in a hot air balloon before this trip, but it such a great experience that we're sure to do it gain at the next opportunity." Read more about this whole safari

"Completely different than the Kenyan one. Lucky to have Dennis as our pilot so we were the first one to take off. We thoroughly enjoyed the trip and the desert breakfast

The only thing that was off-putting was a professional photographer who was taking pictures of two models and was ordering people to move so he could get the best views.

Thankfully someone put a stop to this.

I would certainly recommend this trip." Read more about this whole safari

"What an amazing way to explore the Namib Desert! Our family loved it!

Denis and his crew were friendly and well organized.

The brunch was delicious and a fun was to end our morning (laughing and sharing stories)." Read more about this whole safari

"You have to get up early but it is worth it. Once you check in you are transported to the launch site and watch the crew setup and launch the balloon. Our captain, Denis, was amazing in how he controlled the balloon. He was even able to spin the ballon in a circle so everyone aboard could enjoy the same sight.

After a fairly gentle landing we had a great breakfast with sparkling wine in the dunes with ostriches wandering by." Read more about this whole safari
