South Africa Ballooning

Hot air ballooning in South Africa is a must for your South

Hot air ballooning in South Africa is a must for your South Africa Holiday. The pleasure of sinking and floating aimlessly in the sky can be awesome, to say the least. South Africas climate provides perfect conditions for hot air ballooning and as it does not require any physical exertion it is ideal for people of all ages and most fitness levels.

Hot Air Ballooning is available in most regions of South Africa. You climb aboard a basket, wait for lift off, relax and enjoy fabulous birds-eye views of the countryside. The wind, the pilot and the crew do all the work, and at the end of the flight, a glass of champagne and scrumptious breakfast/luncheon await.
