El Moran Safaris offer Balloon Flights both in The Maasai Mara and Amboseli National Park.
The balloon flight begins at sunrise travelling across the vast areas of The Maasai Mara or Amboseli National Park.
What amazes balloonists is the absolute stillness and the silence
as you float above the plains,
marshes, forest and rivers.
Imagine floating over the open plains of Amboseli and watching
as the sunrise turns the awe-inspiring
Mt. Kilimanjaro a purple hue and the snow on its Kibo peak, a delicate pink.
The magnificent sight of Kilimanjaro above herds of elephants crossing the plains of Amboseli is a timeless African image
and one of life's most memorable experiences.
If you decide to visit the Masai Mara between the months of July and October,
you will have a chance of seeing the 'Great Migration'
while flying above the African plains.
There's nothing quite like this phenomenon of migrating herds of wildebeest, zebras and gazelles.
Flying above the herds in a hot air balloon is one of the best ways to grasp the enormity of what's taking place.
Other exciting sights
to behold include watching predators such as lions hunting their prey, spotting leopards perched up high in trees and seeing active hyena dens.
Every hot air balloon flight brings with it the opportunity to see new and exciting sights below.
Your pilot will make sure to fly lower at times
to allow for the best possible pictures to be taken.
