Day 1:
Serengeti National park
Guests enjoy breathtaking views of the wildebeest migration in the Serengeti. Your Tanzania balloon safari begins when you’re picked up from your lodge or camp around 6:00 AM and taken to Seronera Lodge.
Shortly after, you’ll board a Land Rover for a 40-minute drive to the launch site, arriving in time to see the sunrise and watch the balloon being inflated. After a quick safety briefing, you’ll board the balloon and take off.
The flight path and time depend on the wind and weather, but it usually lasts about an hour. You’ll soar up to 1,000 feet for stunning views of the plains and also glide low, near treetops, for a closer look at the wildlife. The balloon’s ‘whisper’ burners help keep noise to a minimum,
