A flight in a hot-air balloon is like nothing else you’ve ever experienced. No other form of flying comes anywhere close to its calm, serene nature. Experience the quiet stillness of the morning sunrise, whilst soaring amongst the birds and clouds alike. This is truly what dreams are made of. Hot-air ballooning is widely recognised as the safest form of travel. Rest assured that no effort is spared to continue in that proud legacy at Nova Balloon Safaris. Our pilots are trained to the highest standards and our balloons are serviced and maintained by only the best that the industry can offer. Set against a lush, green, spectacular backdrop, our early morning flights guarantee some of the most incredible sunrise scenes you have ever experienced. Hot-air ballooning differs from other forms of air travel. Your encounter is serene, with the odd blast from the gas and flame burners. It is quiet and stable, making for a perfect photo and video opportunity. Enjoy a hot drink with some traditional South African rusks while the crew set up and inflate your balloon. After your flight, relax with a glass of sparkling wine, usually right where you have landed. You are then whisked away to a lovely venue for breakfast, shared with your pilot and crew. Your balloon flight lasts approximately 1 hour, depending on weather conditions and suitability of landing sites. Please allow approximately 4 hours for this epic adventure.
