Hot Air Balloon Safari Add-On

This safari is rated mid. Game-viewing days are spent mostly in the vehicle, so ordinary mobility is enough — the tiring part is early starts and long, corrugated roads, not walking. Tell us about knees, backs or mobility needs and we will adjust the driving days and seat allocation rather than leave you to tough it out.

Every figure we publish is per person, and the range reflects season and camp choice rather than a bait price. Small groups usually pay more per head than large ones, because the vehicle and guide are shared across fewer people. We will show you exactly where your number lands before you commit to anything.

A 4x4 with a pop-up roof and a guaranteed window seat for every traveller — that is in the inclusions above and it is not negotiable, because a middle seat ruins a safari. If you are photographing seriously, ask us about a private vehicle: it costs more, but it means the car stops when you want it to.

Requirements change and depend on your route and country of origin, so we will not pretend to be your doctor. Yellow fever proof is commonly required when arriving from certain countries, and malaria prophylaxis is standard advice for these regions. Speak to a travel clinic well before departure — ideally six to eight weeks out.

Talk to us early. Camps hold space on deposit, and how much flexibility we have depends on how far out you are and which camps are involved. We will tell you plainly what is recoverable and what is not, rather than discovering it for you after the fact.
