What guests loved most

On the Classic Air Balloon Flight you will float gently above either the Cradle of Humankind or the Magaliesberg, in the style of a traditional balloon flight. You will drift quietly in the basket while sipping champagne, with the pilot adjusting altitude to vary the view. At times the balloon will skim treetops; at others it will climb higher for a broader perspective.

From those changing heights you will see sweeping, panoramic views of the beautiful African landscape below. The contrast between close-up treetop scenes and wide, elevated vistas will be part of the experience as you move across the Cradle of Humankind or the Magaliesberg. You will have a calm, scenic journey focused on the landscape and the view.
