Important Information
- Our balloons are officially registered under the South African Civil Aviation Authority and flown by our highly experienced pilots, who are also registered with the SACAA
We choose the magical sunrise hour because it's when the winds are at their calmest. You'll get to witness your balloon being rigged and inflated ready for flight. The flight lasts about an hour, offering you a front-row seat to the breathtaking sunrise. The landing is a thrill, and our ground crew is ready to make it an unforgettable experience!
We've got you covered! Our safety briefing covers everything from entering and exiting the basket to how to enjoy the flight safely. We'll talk about where to find emergency equipment, where to position yourself, and even what to do during an emergency. Safety first, always!
Will weather cancel our flight? Maybe. If our experienced pilots feel the weather isn't ideal, they'll prioritize safety and cancel the flight. Trust us, it's better to wait for perfect conditions!
