Safari by Balloon begin with a drive through the dark of the early morning and the start as dawn breaks over the Serengeti, the perfect silence of the early morning plains broken only by the soft roar of the balloon. Far below wildebeest and zebra seatter, looking everywhere but up at the silent visitor that floats over their wold.

Giraffe stand next to acacia trees, untroubled by the airborne visitors. After the thrill of landing, a champagne breakfast airaits, the air becoming warmer as the sun climbs in the sky and buffalo, giraffe and other antelope look up from their grazing at the chink of cutlery in the still, warn bush.
