Exclusive Safari Flight

We had a wonderful balloon flight. Celebrating a special moment we decided for a unique flight, only us and the pilot. All was arranged well. We were picked up very early, but on our way to the starting point it was quite misty. At first it was not sure whether we could go up, but when the mist started to dissapear it turned out to be a bonus. What a beautiful morning with just veils of mist in the background and the sun coming out. See the picture of the other balloon following us. The pilot told about the environment and he pointed us at animals roaming below. It was a great experience saluted with a glass of bubbles.

This morning we had a hot air balloon ride. What an incredible life experience. The team were knowledgeable, making us both feel relaxed before the experience. We have come from the Uk to celebrate my 50 th birthday, just this experience was worth our trip. Kind, considerate, making us aware of the history of the area, finding all the wildlife, to make the experience a life event. An amazing start to our holiday and my 50 th year of life. I thank you all for your time and energy. We both could tell that you all love what you do. Thank you Jenny and Neil

The entire experience was amazing. The pilot made a point of making us feel exclusive and special. He was so attend to our every want (the experience was not about 'needs') and he went out of his way to accommodate us and make us feel at ease. The ground crew (though I am ashamed to admit that I do not recall their names) were just as amazing.. Following our flight with precision, eager to help us in and out of the basket, taking pictures for us, answering any questions we had, friendly, beyond helpful, knowledgeable in every aspect of the balloons. I truly believe that the trip would not be possible without the combined efforts of the ground and flight crews.

Best Birthday treat ever! Best Piot, best balloon, best experience. We practiced the landing position (we all got it right🤗), navigation was expert, Jaapie showed why he is chief pilot, knew so many of our local friends and neighbours (we live nearby). We'll give him a big cup of coffee if he lands on our farm!

What an experience! Unforgettable from the moment we arrived at the spa pickup point to the breakfast afterwards. The whole morning was fantastic, safe and amazing views over the lion park and cradle of humankind. Thanks to Harold and his 2 colleagues who were funny, friendly and most of all, kept us safe. You won't regret it if you get Harold as a pilot! Thank you AirVentures, an unforgettable end to our South Africa adventure.

This has been the best experience. The pilots and the crew were very friendly and highly skilled. I have returned for a third time with Air Adventures, and each time, the scenery was very beautiful. I would recommend this experience to anyone. Thanks Air Ventures!

It was an amazing experience. The view was amazing! Japie was our Tour guide and he did a really good job! I would recommend this experience to anyone!

What an amazing experience! I will definitely be booking again and can’t wait to share this awesome adventure with my family. Our instructor, Marius, was incredibly welcoming, and his hospitality immediately put us at ease, making us forget any doubts or nervousness we had. Andries, our pilot, took us on a breathtaking journey that helped us overcome our fears of leaving the safety of the earth. He truly made it an unforgettable experience, guiding us to a destination that was entirely unknown, just as he promised. Once we landed, Marius took us on a fascinating journey back in time, telling us where the first hot air balloons were tried and tested. We celebrated our adventure with a remarkable glass of French Champagne, toasting to our incredible achievements. At the lodge, we were warmly welcomed by the breakfast team, who prepared a magnificent buffet feast, making us feel like royalty. Hot Air ballooning with AirVentures is undoubtedly a must-do for anyone’s bucket list. As for me, I certainly feel like one of their most appreciated customers. With thanks. Wilna

Absolutely magical! What an experience and a huge thank you to Harold for his knowledge on the area, humour and great big smile! You made this!!!

Absolutely amazing experience! One of the first activities I booked for our SA trip (hi from SA by the way as we are still here) and an absolutely must do activity even if you’re afraid of heights like me. The staff and pilot were super reassuring, the sights were incredible and the breakfast afterward was absolutely scrumptious and plentiful (major kudos for the omelette guy!). Such great hospitality overall- totally worth the cost and they do offer a group flight for a little less. But if you’re coming to the Johannesburg area, by all means give this one a shot - you will not regret it. Wish I could post pics!
