The hot air balloon safari is an hour excursion in Masai Mara in Kenya and Serengeti in Tanzania. This excursion can be done in a three-day to 10 days safari, including Serengeti and Masai mara.
You are picked up from your accommodation in Masai Mara and Serengeti park and transferred to the balloon site, where you will be flown to the wildlife plains in Serengeti and Masai mara. The flight takes an hour after that, followed by breakfast in the same wildlife plains. The trip is exciting, and a unique experience as you watch the great migration and other wildlife on air; you also follow the migration path on the air balloon.
The flight takes off at 6.30 am and last for one hour. A chase crew follows and prepares a champagne breakfast under a un umbrella tree, after which each passenger receives a certificate.
The tours and safaris involve the famous 7th wonder of the world, which is found in Kenya. The impressive wildlife migration is based in Masai mara. Thousands and thousands of wildebeest, followed by other animals, move from Masai Mara National Reserve to Serengeti National Park in TANZANIA. The movement is fantastic, especially at the river crossing point. As the wildebeest jumped into the Mara River, crocodiles waited for a catch as the lions followed the migration. The river is a point of no return; either jump or risk retreating to the lions. The wildlife is too many such that it can take the whole month. Once the wildebeest make a crossing path, they will follow suit till the end. So the tourist is stuck every day watching the game of the crocodile, the wildebeest, and the lions; the opportunist hyena is included.
