Gauteng Safari Hot Air Balloon Ride

This is an untethered free-flight hot-air balloon — not a tethered or fixed-line ride, and not a helicopter, Johannesburg CBD sky tour or Kruger safari flight. Shared sunrise balloon with soft Gauteng safari / countryside framing — not Johannesburg CBD and not a hard Big Five promise. About 60 minutes aloft. Soft Cradle of Humankind, Magaliesberg and Hartbeespoort Dam framing — Named sights are route- and wind-dependent — you may see them rather than a guaranteed pass. The price is from USD 366 per person. Entry From stays the Cradle of Humankind Classic Hot Air Balloon Ride from ZAR 3300. Includes a shared Gauteng balloon experience on the listing. Soft countryside / wildlife-below framing — do not hard-promise Big Five. Follow the voucher for inclusions and meeting point. Shared untethered hot-air balloon; shared-tour maxima run up to about 50 travellers on the From card (booking bands often lower). Basket allocation varies by morning. Meet at Kloofzicht Lodge & Spa in the Cradle of Humankind area (Muldersdrift / Krugersdorp). About one hour from OR Tambo; about 20–35 minutes from Johannesburg or Sandton.
