A revolutionary journey is about to take place in the vast plains of the Serengeti National Park, presenting an unmissable opportunity for safari enthusiasts worldwide. This November, Aardvark Safaris, in collaboration with the distinguished Serengeti Balloon Safaris and Wayo Africa Fly Camps, will embark on an inaugural trans-Serengeti balloon safari expedition. This groundbreaking adventure promises to provide safari-goers a new way of experiencing the wilderness.

The intrepid six-day journey, scheduled from 1st to 7th November 2023, is set to commence and conclude in Arusha. This extraordinary experience is designed to completely immerse participants in the unspoiled beauty of the Serengeti wilderness, promising a blend of breathtaking views, riveting wildlife encounters, and intimate contact with the region’s unique ecosystem.

Wayo Africa Fly Camps

This spectacular expedition includes four nights of fly-camping, a unique camping experience where guests sleep under the expansive African night skies, cosily enveloped in star cocoon tents. Each morning, the journey will take a magical turn as guests take flight in hot air balloons, traversing the sky to a fresh wilderness locale. Guided by expert local professionals, participants will explore the newly arrived areas through on-foot safaris and traditional wildlife drives.

The Serengeti, a UNESCO World Heritage Site renowned for its exceptional beauty and biodiversity, is a veritable paradise for safari enthusiasts. This balloon safari expedition will offer an unrivalled opportunity to witness its majesty from an elevated perspective. The journey will present panoramic views of the Serengeti from altitudes up to 2,000 feet and provide close-up wildlife encounters at the grass level.

Moreover, this journey will also offer an extraordinary opportunity for guests to participate in conservation efforts. Visitors will join the de-snaring team from the Frankfurt Zoological Society and contribute hands-on to preserving this unique ecosystem. They will also get to explore the cheetah-rich area of the Gol Kopjes and experience an unprecedented landing on the Eastern shores of Lake Victoria amidst a community that has never seen a hot air balloon before.

In its 30 years of service, Serengeti Balloon Safaris, known for its outstanding expertise, has flown over 250,000 guests. They have dreamt about embarking on this route for years, and finally, this dream will become a reality.

The all-inclusive expedition, available through Aardvark Safaris, is priced at £7,995 (USD $10,155) per person, based on two sharing. This comprehensive package includes all transfers, four nights of full board fly-camping, two nights B&B at Rivertrees Inn Arusha, four extended balloon flights, guided walking and 4×4 safaris, all drinks on safari, guided activities in Arusha, and return internal flights from Arusha to Serengeti.
