A hot air balloon safari is a unique and unforgettable way to experience the beauty of Tanzania’s landscapes and wildlife. The balloon safari offers visitors an elevated perspective and a peaceful ride as they soar over the Serengeti plains, spotting wildlife such as elephants, lions, and zebras. The balloon safari is perfect for those looking for a romantic adventure, families with children, or those seeking a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
The best time for a balloon safari in Tanzania is during the dry season, which runs from June to October. During this time, the weather is cooler and drier, making it easier to fly for longer periods. The dry season also offers the best wildlife viewing opportunities, as the animals congregate around water sources. However, visitors can still enjoy a balloon safari during the green season, which runs from Mid December to March.
The Serengeti National Park is one of the best places for a balloon safari in Tanzania. The park’s vast savannahs, dotted with acacia trees and wildlife, offer a stunning backdrop for a hot air balloon ride.
The cost of a balloon safari in Tanzania costs around $550 – $600 per person. The price usually includes transportation, a champagne and bush breakfast, and park fees.
Visitors can choose from a variety of balloon safari options, from a shared ride to a private balloon for couples which costs significantly more. Some operators also offer a package that includes a balloon safari and a game drive in the park.
It’s important to note that the balloon safari is weather-dependent, and flights can be canceled due to unfavorable weather conditions. Visitors should plan for a backup activity in case their flight is cancelled.
If Balloon Safari is on your bucket list on your trip to Tanzania, Mega Adventures will be happy to help you to organize your trip. Book your balloon safari today and get ready for a once-in-a-lifetime experience in Tanzania.

Yasin is an excellent driver and a very experienced guide, who dicovers even the ear of a lion hiding in the grass in a distance of 50 meters. So we have been lucky to see a lot of animals. Therefore our Safari was an awesome experience. We also received lots of information about the animals, the National Parks, the country of Tansania and the people living there. Since he is very humorous guy, we had a lot of fun, too. Thanks Yasin for a very special and fantastic time.
Can’t recommend Yasin highly enough. Endlessly informative with an almost sixth sense of where the animals are likely to be. Also a funny and ever positive travelling companion who contributed much to a family holiday of a lifetime.
We had a three-day safari with Yasin. Yasin gave us a very warm welcome right from the start and made us feel very familiar and friendly. It didn’t feel like a tour with a guide. We felt that we were in good hands and were able to enjoy the safari. We particularly liked the fact that Yasin always involved us in everything. For example, we were able to decide when our day began or ended. Yasin was able to tell us a lot about the wildlife, but also about the culture and the country. He was in constant contact with his colleagues, which gave us a good opportunity to see the BIG5. The moment of our engagement was very special for us. We would like to take this opportunity to thank you once again, dear Yasin. Thank you for your support and the great picnic spot. You were so well prepared, always took care of everything and made our dream come true. We will never forget these moments and we will never forget you. Stay healthy and as cheerful as we got to know you. Kind regards from Bremen (Germany) Jessica & Brian
Wir waren vom 26.7. bis zum 05.8. mit Yassin auf Safari. Alles klappte wunderbar, von der Abholung am Flughafen bis zum Ende der Reise. Wir erfuhren von ihm unglaublich viel über Land und Menschen und Tierwelt. Er kannte sich in allen Themen, zu denen wir neugierig waren, aus. Die Gamedrives in den Naturparks waren perfekt. Wir entdeckten unendlich viele Tiere und er zeigte uns nicht nur die Tiere, die viele Touristen ausschließlich sehen wollen, sondern die so unendlich artenreiche Tierwelt. Die Serengeti war natürlich extrem eindrucksvoll. Vor allem die große Tiermigration, bei der wir Dank Yassin einen Platz in der ersten Reihe hatten. Eindrucksvoll auch die Unterkünfte dort, so nah an der Natur und voller perfekten Service. Das ist wahrer Luxus. Das Auto und auch der Transport in ihm war komfortabel. Kurz zusammengefasst: eine unglaublich eindrucksvolle, sichere, individuelle, sehr inhaltsreiche und unvergessliche Reise. Vielen vielen Dank
My family and I were so lucky that we had Hussein as our guide! He were really passionate about his work, which resulted in us learning so much about the nature we went to, seeing a lot of different animals meanwhile having a truly comfy trip where you felt safe all the timeâ˜ºï¸ I will truly recommend Hussein as a guide for your wildlife adventure ðŸ€
We spend ten days with Yasin in the Serengeti, Taranguire and Ngorongoro Crater. Yasin, our guide, was always optimally prepared and also discovered the animals that were well hidden. He kept the necessary distance and always showed consideration for the animals. We felt safe and in good hands. Thanks to Yasin we experienced a unique Safaritour that we will never forget.
