Experience the awe of hot air balloon flying with a one hour Magalies River Valley sunrise flight.
Treat yourself or a loved one to an unforgettable hot air
balloon flight over the Magalies River Valley which borders the
Cradle of Humankind World Heritage Site, the perfect way to
celebrate a special occasion and create memories to last a
lifetime. This unique flying experience takes place at sunrise and
is run by a specialist organisation with years in the industry,
Bill Harrop's Original Balloon Safaris. Passengers are guaranteed a
highly professional, relaxing balloon ride surrounded by
breath-taking views.
The experience starts with tea, coffee and biscuits on arrival at
the clubhouse pavilion, before passengers are helped into the
basket and the one hour flight begins. There will be plenty of
opportunities to take photos as the balloon glides smoothly high
above the ground - if you can drag your eyes away from the
incredible Magalies River Valley skyline! Once back on solid ground
the experience concludes with a refreshing glass of sparkling wine,
and guests are invited to enjoy a delicious breakfast from the
clubhouse restaurant. To top off a fantastic morning, everyone will
receive a commemorative certificate!
South Africa has some of the best hot air balloon flying in the
world, making it the perfect place to tick off that
once-in-a-lifetime experience from the bucket list. Balloon flights
make wonderful experience gifts, so treat someone to a day they'll
never forget!
