Nova Hot Air Balloon Safaris – Soar Above South Africa’s Stunning Landscapes
A flight with Nova Hot Air Balloon Safaris is an experience like no other. Unlike any other form of flying, hot air ballooning offers a calm, serene, and dreamlike adventure. As the sun rises over South Africa’s lush landscapes, you’ll glide silently among the clouds and birds, soaking in breathtaking scenery and the quiet stillness of the morning.
Hot air ballooning is widely recognised as one of the safest forms of travel, and Nova Balloon Safaris maintains this proud legacy. All pilots are trained to the highest standards, and each balloon is meticulously serviced and maintained to ensure maximum safety and comfort. From takeoff to landing, every detail is managed with professionalism and care, so you can focus on the magic of flight.
Your adventure begins before lift-off with a hot drink and traditional South African rusks while the crew sets up and inflates the balloon. Once airborne, the experience is serene, with only the occasional burst from the burners, creating the perfect conditions for stunning photos and videos. The flight itself lasts approximately one hour, depending on weather and landing conditions, offering panoramic views of South Africa’s vibrant landscapes.
After landing, celebrate your flight with a glass of sparkling wine, usually right at the landing site. Then, enjoy a delicious breakfast shared with your pilot and crew at a nearby venue, reflecting on your unforgettable experience. The full adventure takes around four hours, making it a leisurely, memorable morning.
Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion, seeking a romantic getaway, or simply wanting to experience South Africa from a new perspective, Nova Hot Air Balloon Safaris delivers an extraordinary journey that blends adventure, beauty, and tranquility.
