WNB 18: HOT AIR BALLOON IN MASAI MARA
Hot
air balloon flights take place in scenic beauty of Maasai Mara. A
gentle ascent takes you well above tree-top level and the whispering
light breeze soothes the hearts as you enjoy a panoramic view of wildlife
drama unequalled anywhere in the whole wide world. Thrilling drama
of nature’s battle of predators verses the preys, that is constantly
displayed in the savanna grassland from time immemorial. It’s
worthy your dollar!
Remember to put on practical clothes, preferably cotton, a sweater
will shield you against sometimes windy flights. Sturdy shoes are
necessary. Sunglasses and camera to catch the real drama will come
in handy.
SERENGETI BALLOON SAFARI
An
exclusive excursion over the Serengeti plains, offering unparalleled panoramic
views of the awe-inspiring landscape. A very popular excursion for those of our
clients willing to spend that little bit extra, and can be added on to any safari
that includes a night in the Serengeti, at any of the lodges. Only two balloons
fly each.
Masai
Mara Balloon Safari
Close
your eyes, and for a moment feel your body lift up, with you having no control
over it, and there is a certain part of you, inside you, saying to yourself, I
am crazy for taking this balloon safari. This is what most people feel, when the
excitement of a Masai Mara hot air balloon safari crosses one's emotion of self-control
and independence.
The
feeling is indescribable, crispness of the African air, chill in the wind that
hits your face as your Mara hot air balloon gradually rises, smoothness in the
exhale of your breath, and the excitement to see and learn more. One's physical
presence can be felt on the plains of the Masai Mara when reading this.
You
trip begins when you get your wake up call at your safari lodge or tented camp
in the early hours of the morning, as you yawn away, and thoughts about your wildlife
viewing from an elevated position begins to stir your mind. The fresh Kenyan traditional
hot tea and coffee quickly awaken you, in fact preparing you for a "mission".
