Le safari en montgolfière au-dessus du Serengeti est un moyen fantastique d'assister au début de la journée de travail du règne animal africain depuis le ciel. Vous serez à bord d'un ballon qui flottera lentement sur la vaste savane du Serengeti au petit matin, alors que la plupart des animaux sont à moitié endormis. Vous serez simplement conduit dans la direction du vent. Le petit-déjeuner dans la brousse après le safari en montgolfière est une expérience différente. La sensation et le frisson que procure le vol en montgolfière peuvent surpasser n'importe quelle expérience de safari en Tanzanie.
Le safari en montgolfière dans le Serengeti s'accompagne toujours d'une escapade dans d'autres parcs nationaux fascinants de Tanzanie, tels que : La zone de conservation du Ngorongoro, Tarangire, etc. Si vous avez de la chance, vous pourrez voir les millions de mammifères qui marchent du Serengeti au Massai Mara au Kenya, rendant l'atmosphère poussiéreuse avec leurs millions de sabots maltés. La pittoresque zone de conservation du Ngorongoro, la plus grande caldeira volcanique intacte du monde, abrite la population animale africaine la plus dense, et le Tanrangire, connu comme le paradis des oiseaux, sont quelques-unes des options qui ajouteront de la valeur à votre safari en montgolfière.
Arrive anytime at Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO). We will arrange a private transfer from the Airport to Arusha at the African Tulip hotel, where the rest of the day is at leisure.
We stay at the African Tulip hotel, which is beautifully located on the slope of Mount. Meru and is a perfect place to prepare for your adventure.
Point de départ

07:00 - 08:30
We head towards the Serengeti National Park. En route, there is an opportunity to visit Olduvai Gorge. It is within this steep-sided ravine that Louis and Mary Leakey made some of the world’s most important archaeological discoveries in the 1950s. Here is a small museum we are able to see evidence of our ancestors that have been dated back 2.5 million years. After lunch, we drive into the Serengeti itself and the rest of the afternoon is spent game viewing in the vast plains that are broken only by stands of acacia trees and the occasional kopje. In December, January and February we will normally meet the migration with large herds of wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle. There are always plenty of resident animals, such as giraffe, buffalo, and elephant, and many large predators such as lion, cheetah, and leopard. We return to our special tented camp for the balloon Safari briefing.
Earl morning pick up from your Tented camp to Balloon Safari is probably the most beautiful balloon flight in the world and the ultimate Safari Experience which makes you enjoy the most beautiful migration of wildebeests through the endless plain of Serengeti.
5:00 am, Serengeti Balloon Safaris will collect you from your central Serengeti lodge or camp, and transfer you by Landrover to our launch site near Masai Kopjes. Here you will meet your pilot, receive a briefing and watch the inflation of your balloon.
At dawn we take off, rising as the sun rises and float in whichever direction the winds of the morning take us.
Your pilot can precisely control the altitude of your balloon: sometimes flying at treetop height, sometimes lower, offering a unique perspective and great photographic opportunities of the wildlife below. After breakfast, you are taken to the rendezvous point to meet with your driver guide and continue with your full day game drives.

We depart from your tented lodge and proceed to Lake Manyara National Park. Although small in size, this park is one of the most diverse reserves in the country. Lake Manyara covers two-thirds of the park. At the backdrop is the wall of the Great Rift Valley, before which lies the groundwater forest, areas of open grassland near the lake foreshore, and the Soda Lake. We enjoy a picnic lunch in this area, which consists of open grassy areas, hot springs, dense woodlands, and steep mountainsides. Lake Manyara National Park is a birding paradise that has more than 350 species of bird. The park is also famed for its unique and elusive tree.
After lunch, we drive straight to Kilimanjaro International Airport for your flight back home.
