Ballooning over the Masai Mara
Dawn breaks and ribbons of light streak across the sky as the sun silently rises above the distant horizon. The silence is broken only by the occasional roar of heated air as your balloon continues its gentle rise above the endless plains of the Masai Mara.
Its residents stir as you float above them: herds of buffalo and wildebeest and weary prides of lion greet a new day. To explore this fascinating environment from a totally different perspective is a captivating experience and as you glide back to earth, the ground crew is already preparing your champagne breakfast beneath the spreading branches of an umbrella tree.
