Discover an adventure of a lifetime

The Maasai Mara National Park is world-famous for many reasons, and there are many ways to explore it. However, everything pales in comparison to drifting gently among the clouds and looking down on the vast acacia-dotted savannah teeming with wildlife. The crisp morning air gently kisses your face as you sip your morning coffee, and you feel your heart soaring higher than the clouds above.

"It was an early morning, but well worth it! Captain Mervin was knowledgeable and a great pilot. We were able to see the rivers and wildlife… simply gorgeous. I highly recommend this balloon ride!"

"Stunning sunrise and views of the Mara as well as many animal sightings including elephants, lions, cheetahs, giraffe, zebra, buffalo, wildebeest and so many more. Captain Riz was very informative about the land and animals and ensured a smooth take-off and landing. After landing, we were treated to a lovely champagne breakfast and the facilities included a ‘loo with a view’. Highly recommend taking this flight when in the Mara!"
Payal S
"An amazing experience and a great opportunity to see the Masai Mara from another perspective! Lions, elephants, ostrichs, pumba and the big migration, we’ve seen it all :) Captain Marvin is a lovely man who sees and knows a lot and also the rest of the staff, food etc is friendly and well organized. So this is something you have to do!!"
