Experience the quiet beauty of the African sky with AirVentures, one of Gauteng’s most respected hot air ballooning operators. Based in the Cradle of Humankind, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, our flights offer a calm, elevated perspective of this expansive 53,000-hectare wilderness—home to open grasslands, river valleys, and roaming plains game.

AirVentures offers a range of ballooning packages to suit different preferences. Choose a Classic Safari Flight, ideal for first-time flyers, or opt for their Exclusive Private Flights for a more personal experience. For photographers or wildlife lovers, our Game Viewing Flights are designed to follow routes with high wildlife activity, offering the chance to spot antelope, giraffe, and more from above.

All flights include a full morning experience: pre-dawn coffee, a one-hour flight with a qualified pilot, a celebratory drink on landing, and a sit-down breakfast in a peaceful bush setting.

To add depth and value to the experience, AirVentures employs pilots who are also FGASA (Field Guide Association of South Africa) qualified. With carefully selected launch sites and experienced, attentive crews, AirVentures offers ballooning that’s grounded in quality.
