Hot Air Balloon Ride

Soar Above the Serengeti at Sunrise

Experience the magic of the African wilderness from the sky with a breathtaking Hot Air Balloon Ride over the Serengeti. As the sun rises over the endless plains, you’ll gently ascend into the air, floating silently above acacia-dotted landscapes, herds of wildlife, and meandering rivers.

It’s a moment of peace, wonder, and awe—an unforgettable way to witness the sheer beauty and scale of Tanzania’s most iconic national park.

Why Take a Hot Air Balloon Safari?

Spectacular Aerial Views

Watch elephants roam below, giraffes stretch toward treetops, and perhaps even catch predators on the hunt—all from a bird’s-eye view.

Unmatched Serenity

With only the whisper of the wind and the occasional burst of the burner, a balloon ride offers a peaceful and immersive way to connect with nature.

Perfect for Special Occasions

Whether it's a honeymoon, anniversary, birthday, or bucket-list trip, a balloon safari adds a magical touch to your journey.

What to Expect on the Day

Early Morning Start

You'll be picked up before dawn and driven to the launch site, where the balloon is prepared as the sky begins to lighten.

One-Hour Flight

Soar for about an hour, depending on wind conditions, and take in sweeping views of the Serengeti or Tarangire ecosystems.

Champagne Bush Breakfast

Upon landing, celebrate your flight with a traditional champagne toast followed by a luxurious full English breakfast served in the bush.

Best Time to Enjoy a Balloon Ride

Hot air balloon rides are available year-round, with the dry season (June to October) offering the clearest skies and most reliable weather. The Great Migration season (June to July in western Serengeti and mid-July to October in the north) is especially spectacular from the air.

Make Your Safari Extraordinary

A Hot Air Balloon Safari with African Timeless Adventures is more than just a flight—it’s a memory etched in golden light and the quiet majesty of the wild. Space is limited and demand is high, so we recommend booking in advance.

Let your adventure rise with the sun—soar above the wild and see Africa like never before.
