Helicopter Flight & Balloon Safari

Experience a bird's eye view on the African skyline in two very different and unique ways

Okavango Delta , Botswana

A helicopter flight starts your epic journey over the Delta as herds of elephants and pods of hippo move in the waterways below. On arrival at the launch site, watch as the balloon is rigged and inflated, then experience a bird’s-eye view of some of the breath-taking remote areas on an unforgettable 45-minute Hot Air Balloon Safari. You float over the stunning landscape of islands, plains and lagoons of the Okavango Delta with unrestricted views of wildlife below you. On landing, you are treated to a celebratory glass of champagne and a light breakfast before returning to camp by helicopter.

One should do this:

because the combination of an incredible helicopter flight, and the experience of an age-old Balloon Safari, in one of Africa’s great wilderness destinations, epitomises the very best of game viewing.
