The balloon flight is a nice experience to include during your safari. You can get the most out of your safari and balloon flight when you spend at least 3 nights in one of the North Okavango camps that offer this activity. We also recommend that you reserve the balloon when you are going to spend a minimum of 3 nights in the Okavango and reserve it for the second day. In this way, if the planned flight had to be cancelled, you could still do it on the last day of your stay and thus you could have carried out all the adventures you wanted. 04:30-05:15 am: Between these hours the transfer is made from the camp to the takeoff point. You must reconfirm your pick-up time the evening before with the safari guide. 06:15-06:45 am: The balloon will start or have started to be inflated. The pilot will give a brief explanation about the security measures in the balloon. 06:45-07:45, just before dawn, the pilot lights the burners to begin the flight over the African savannah. The course taken will be dictated by the direction of the wind, so there is no equal flight. For the same reason the landing point is unknown. The duration of the flight can also vary due to weather factors and the orography of the area to which the wind takes you, but normally the flight lasts from 45 to 60 minutes. 08:15-08:30 landfall and you descend from the balloon. Depending on the landing point, a short transfer may be necessary to the place where breakfast is organized. At other times you just have to walk a short distance to the table where breakfast awaits you. 08:30-09:30 breakfast in the African savannah. Sometimes the human team of the globe decides that this may be the best time for the traditional toast with sparkling wine, although make no mistake, any time is ideal for toasting. The breakfast consists of fruits, eggs cooked in the savannah, bread-toasts and other products. Not forgetting coffee or tea. At the end of breakfast, the transfer is made back to the camp where you are staying, making safari during the journey.
