Best way to spend a morning! Ever!
Simply the best way to spend a morning! We took a flight over Tarangire national park with captain Andrew. Collected before dawn by Alfred who excitedly shared his love for animals. On route we got to see two honey badgers - soooo exciting, amongst many zebras, giraffes, elephants and various antelopes. The launch was simple - what a great team! Andrew gave clear instructions and was as excited as us to be flying over many wild animals and the beauty of the African bush. After the flight, for which words are not adequate, we went for breakfast overlooking the vast plains so we could enjoy incredible service and superb views. Wow! What an experience! Even the loos have a view ☺️

Once A Lifetime Experience!! Must do!
The Miracle Experience hot air balloon was unbelievable. Not only was the experience beautiful and so much fun, the staff were incredibly organized, accommodating, and so nice. The whole trip from start to finish was such a fun, unique and once in a lifetime experience. When you arrive it’s early because it has to be based on the sunrise, but they have coffee and treats for you upon arrival and nice bathrooms being in the middle of the Serengeti. My husband and I had never been in a hot air balloon, and it was truly remarkable seeing the Serengeti from above and watching the sunrise while you’re there. After the balloon they gave us a sweet and delicious bush breakfast and celebrated everyone’s honeymoon like ours. It made us feel super special and taken care of! ❤️ they also had a professional photographer that took some beautiful photos. We would do it again in a heartbeat!

We’re glad you enjoyed the bush breakfast and that celebrating your honeymoon with us made you feel extra special.
