Ballooning Over Africa

Soaring over Africa’s great gamelands

If you’ve ever taken a ride in a hot-air balloon, you know. And if you haven’t, you are in for an indelibly jolly experience.

Wafting over the Maasai Mara-Serengeti in the piercingly fresh and golden morning, floating over elephants and hippos, feeling a mild and worthy intoxication-by-grandeur, is one of those things that, having done, we wonder how on earth we ever contemplated not doing.

And then there is a bubbly post-flight breakfast in the bush, a cheery way to softly come back to earth.
