Balloon Safaris in Tanzania
Experience the Serengeti From a Whole New Perspective
Imagine floating silently above the endless plains as the sun rises over the Serengeti — golden light spilling across the savannah, herds of wildebeest and zebra moving below, and lions basking in the morning warmth.
A hot air balloon safari is one of the most magical ways to witness the beauty of Tanzania from above.
At Ventures and bravo safaris, we offer exclusive balloon safaris that combine adventure, tranquillity, and breath-taking views for a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
The Ultimate Safari Experience
Your balloon adventure begins before dawn. As you arrive at the launch site, you’ll watch the crew prepare the balloon while enjoying a warm cup of coffee or tea.
Then, as the first rays of sunlight appear, you lift off — soaring gently above the Serengeti National Park, Tarangire, or Ngorongoro Conservation Area.
From this unique vantage point, you’ll see:
-
Herds of elephants, giraffes, lions, and antelopes roaming below
-
The Great Migration (seasonal) from above
-
Stunning landscapes and sunrise views that you’ll never forget
After landing, you’ll celebrate with a champagne breakfast in the bush, surrounded by the sounds of nature.
Where You Can Enjoy a Balloon Safari
Our balloon safaris are available in some of Tanzania’s most iconic destinations:
-
Serengeti National Park – The best place to witness the Great Migration from the sky.

Each location offers a unique experience — we’ll help you choose the best one based on your itinerary and travel season.
When Is the Best Time for a Balloon Safari?
