Experience during Tanzania Balloon Safari

Get ready for your hot Serengeti ski run in northern Tanzania, with an early pick-up around 5:00am. A pre-dawn trek through the forest to your shoot offers its own unique charm, allowing you to see nocturnal animals illuminated by headlamps, an encounter that wouldn’t be possible any other way. Grazing hippos on the banks of rivers like Seronera or Grumeti catch your eye, while in the plains you can see elephants stealthily chasing a lion returning from hunting

Wearing a lightweight long-sleeved jacket and long pants in the cool morning air, combined with sturdy shoes, is a smart choice Don’t forget your binoculars and a DSLR camera with you will capture the highlight of this milestone on your way to the Serengeti. Impatient oscillations of the horizontal balloon, punctuated by the occasional noise of the burner, and indicative of the warmth that will envelope you in your top Waiters ensure that the basket remains stable in flight, and it creates a heart-wrenching moment as you tear yourself away from the landscape and become part of the dawn

As you climb, the sky turns from red to pink, and the sun rises to bathe the Serengeti Plain in gold. There’s a visceral sensation checking the edge of the hat on the receding earth, a mix of excitement and trepidation as the sensation of the wind loses control Your piloting skills may guide the balloon, but it’s the wind that guides you, embracing your vulnerability It is forced to do so

THE BEST TOUR AGENCY FOR KILIMANJARO TREKKING AND WILDLIFE SAFARIES This was the first time I had travelled with Mr Lyimo . The company specialises in expert-led cultural and wildlife tours in Tanzania East Africa. Group numbers are small, accommodation at the hotel in Moshi Kilimajaro was comfortable and food excellent. The expert mountain and safari guide who accompanied us was outstanding - passionate, informative, engaging and entertaining. The itinerary for 6 days Climbing Kilimanjaro and 5 Days wildlife safari was very well thought out, combining leisure time with activity and not-to-be-missed opportunities to swim in the Kikuletwa Hot springs ( Maji Moto) . The client is obviously at the heart of the itinerary planning, and attention to detail is second to none. I would highly recommend this company to anyone wanting a fun, relaxed, educational holiday with fine food - they will deliver! Thanks Mr Lyimo for your good arrangement.
