See wildlife from the air — herds on the grass at their most active in the morning. Keep an eye out for lion, elephant, zebra, wildebeest, and giraffe. Sightings are not guaranteed. Morning is when they are moving.
This balloon safari is sold on that morning view. There is no shorter flight on this location that skips it. Binoculars are on board; the pilot talks you through the country below.
You do not do a game drive from the basket and you do not get out among the animals. You look down, then land where the wind allows.
The extra minutes in the air are why the balloon exists next to a vehicle safari: the plains as a whole, not one sighting from the road. Stay on this listing if that is the point.
Book the sunrise balloon safari and see Serengeti wildlife from the air.
