Timing Is Everything
Early morning is considered to be the best time to go for a balloon safari.
In the early morning, you will be taken to the launch site in your safari vehicle. Before take-off, your flight operator will brief you on the detail about the whole trip. The journey continues 40 minutes to 1hour duration.
Sometimes the direction and duration of the flight depend upon the weather condition.
