More about Balloon Safari over Hoedspruit

Enjoy the magic of lighter-than-air experience as you watch the world wake up from the quiet majesty of a hot air balloon. Your journey begins in the cool morning air with a collection from your accommodation, transferring you to the launch site where you’ll watch the giant balloons come to life. As you settle into the spirit of the bush with fresh coffee, tea, and rusks, the pilot and crew prepare for departure as the first light touches the horizon. Once airborne, you will 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. The flight offers 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, you will be presented with a personalized aeronaut certificate to commemorate your adventure before being transferred safely back to your overnight accommodation.
