BALLOON SAFARIS IN MASAAI MARA & TARANGIRE

Probably the most beautiful balloon flight in the world and the ultimate African safari experience. This can be arrange in Kenya (Masai Mara) and Tanzania in ( Tarangire).

 

Schedule:

5:00 am: Collection from your Tarangire  and Masai Mara lodge or camp, and transfer you by Land rover to the launch site. Here you will meet your pilot, receive a briefing and watch the inflation of your balloon.

At dawn we take off, rising as the sun rises and float in whichever direction the winds of the morning take us. Your pilot can precisely control the altitude of your balloon: sometimes flying at treetop height, sometimes lower, offering a unique perspective and great photographic opportunities of the wildlife below.

At other times he will ascend to 1000' or more to see the enormity and wonderful panorama of the Tarangire. From time to time the pilot must put more heat into the balloon with the powerful whisper burners. In between these burns, there is silence apart from the natural sounds below.

The flight is for about one hour depending on conditions, on landing you celebrate in the traditional manner with champagne (well, an excellent sparkling wine), before sitting down to a full English breakfast prepared and served in the bush in 'Out of Africa' style.

After breakfast you receive your Balloon certificate and we drive you back to the Lodge or camp with game viewing enroute. 9:30 am Arrive at the lodge/camp ready to continue your day's activities.

Royal wedding set for today! Dont miss out on watching it in full royalty at Hotel Lamada and Oakwood Hotel.

A luxury safari in Kenya will bring out the romantic in anyone with a pulse. It inspired Prince William to pop the question to longtime girlfriend Kate Middleton a few weeks ago. A ten day trip to the Lewa Wildlife Conservancy was what did the trick. The conservancy is partly owned by the Craig family, their children are close friends of the Prince.
The official announcement of the royal engagement came today, the couple plan to marry next summer. The British press are of course all over it, and the Kenyan press too.

Prince William has traveled to Kenya many times, he spent part of his gap year before going to university in Kenya and Tanzania. In 2003, he told the BBC he was studying kiSwahili. One of the first holidays the young couple took together was a safari in Lewa Downs. And just this past May, William traveled to Kenya to celebrate a friend's birthday.
