In line with traditional balloon flights, our Classic Air Balloon Flight offers guests the serene beauty of floating gently over the Cradle of Humankind or the Magaliesberg, while sipping on champagne, as the pilot allows the hot air balloon at times to drift at tree top height and at other times will ascend into the skies, offering guests a panoramic view of the beautiful African landscape below.

The most incredible to start to my birthday, from arrival to departure!
Adam was a fantastic pilot spotting white rhino, giraffes and zebra on our flight. He was very informative and willingly answered all passengers questions. Thank you for making my birthday extra special 🥳

Highly recommend this, excuse the pun 😂 The most pleasant experience.

Outrageously expensive.. better entertainment elsewhere for cheaper! Saddens me that the local population or average South African cannot enjoy this. I want to start something similar to cater for the South African market only. Overseas visitors will then pay 400% more.

Everything was just an new beautiful adventure and learning experience, from arrival at the launch site to seeing the size of the balloon in real life the sound of the heat gas tank and how hot the flame is. To meeting the Captain and the briefing we received from him before we took off. Capt kept us informed of his movements and what and where, we were flying over at all times.

We spotted animals, river, hills, land (cradle of humankind), lodge, mountains, trees, beautiful blue Skye’s, sun and clouds we had view of other balloons which was beautiful to watch and it gave us a chance to take beautiful pictures of the other balloons from our flight. Ooohhhh!!! The landing was spot on!!! Beautiful and amazing…

This was such a great experience! Great communication via WhatsApp leading up to the scheduled date and arranging changes due to weather that fit my schedule.
It was actually very easy to drive to the meeting location at the lodge using Google maps. Everything was explained thoroughly and nothing was rushed.
It was a great experience from the initial meeting to watching the balloon get inflated and throughout the entire flight all the way to returning for a marvelous breakfast at the lodge.
Such a serene and peaceful flight over the beautiful South African countryside watching the sunrise and even spotting some animals below. There was no fear or uncomfortable feeling from the height and everything went very smoothly.
If you're considering trying this you should just do it and you will be so happy afterwards. It's a great life experience, especially something to add to your holiday if you're here visiting. And the best thing is that by the time you're done you still have the whole day ahead of you to do other things.
The gentlemen who run the event and pilot the balloon are first class and did everything possible for a wonderful experience. I cannot recommend this tour enough!
