Begin your journey in the cool morning air with a pickup from your accommodation. Transfer to the launch site where you’ll watch the giant balloons come to life. Settle into the spirit of the bush with fresh coffee, tea, and rusks as the pilot and crew prepare for departure.

Once airborne, glide silently for approximately one hour over a patchwork of riverine forest and lush citrus and mango orchards, sometimes skimming low enough to almost reach the treetops.

Enjoy unparalleled photographic opportunities of the sun rising against the Northern Drakensberg Mountains while you spot wildlife wandering through the farmland and private reserves below.

Following a smooth landing and a celebratory glass of sparkling wine, receive a personalised aeronaut certificate to commemorate your adventure before being transferred safely back to your overnight accommodation.
