Discover the Magic of Tarangire National Park with Serengeti Balloon Safaris! 🐘

Nestled in the heart of Tanzania, Tarangire National Park is a hidden gem that has been enchanting visitors since the 1970s. Named after the life-giving Tarangire River, this 2,600 square kilometer sanctuary is a breathtaking blend of swamps, wetlands, open savannahs, and dense woodlands.

One of the park’s most distinctive features is its majestic baobab trees, some believed to be over a thousand years old, providing shelter and sustenance to a variety of wildlife. Tarangire is also known as the "Elephants' Paradise," boasting one of the highest densities of elephants in Tanzania. 🐘🌳

But that's not all! With over 550 bird species, including the rare yellow-collared lovebird, and a diverse array of wildlife such as lions, leopards, cheetahs, and various antelope species, Tarangire is a dream come true for wildlife enthusiasts. πŸ¦πŸ¦…

As we celebrate 54 years of Tarangire’s existence, we invite you to join us in experiencing this natural wonder from a whole new perspective. Our balloon safaris offer a unique vantage point to witness the breathtaking landscapes and rich biodiversity of Tarangire National Park. πŸŒπŸŽ‰

Soaring Over Tarangire 🐘

We've had an incredible start to our brand new balloon safari location in the stunning Tarangire National Park! Captains Abeid R Soka and Nik Duffield have been taking guests on unforgettable flights, soaring over this breathtaking landscape.

From the air, they've been able to spot an amazing array of wildlife going about their daily routines below. The towering giraffes appear as tiny replicas, congregating in several herds dotted across the plains.

The gentle giants of Tarangire, the elephants, have been seen in abundance - massive herds of these majestic creatures roaming the savannah. Other species spotted include the striking Cape buffalo, flocks of ostrich striding across the terrain, waterbuck, Coke's hartebeest, greater kudu, zebras, the petite bushbuck, and even the tiny dik-dik antelope.

Drifting silently in the basket, our guests have had a front-row seat to this iconic African wilderness. The aerial vantage point reveals Tarangire's diverse ecosystems and landscapes in a way that simply isn't possible on a traditional ground safari.

The Great Migration Continues! πŸƒπŸŒΏ

Each year, an estimated 1.5 million wildebeest make the incredible journey across the Serengeti plains in search of fresh grazing lands. This ancient cyclical migration is one of the greatest natural spectacles on the planet!

Right now in the central Serengeti, we're witnessing the earlier stages of this epic odyssey as mega herds of wildebeest congregate and begin making their way northward. The vast stretches of land are turned into an undulating sea of black and tan as these resilient grazers move together.

From the air on our scenic balloon safaris, we've had a privileged front-row view of these mighty herds passing through the region. The sheer numbers are mind-boggling as the wildebeest stretch out across the horizon as far as the eye can see.

While the migration patterns can vary year to year based on rainfall, we expect the wildebeest to be flowing through the central and western corridors over the next few months on their quest for survival.

This is nature at its rawest and most powerful. Book your adventure with to witness this breathtaking marvel from above before the herds move on!

Our Story

As the first company to set a balloon aloft over the Serengeti, we have set the bar high for an exceptional adventure, delivered with safety at the forefront of our minds, and with our passenger's experience as a priority. From the outset, we've established ourselves as partners in conservation in the Parks in which we operate and we take an active role in ensuring ballooning standards are rigorously maintained. We've had to learn the vagaries of the weather from firsthand experience and as such, there are no more experienced pilots than those that fly the green and gold of Serengeti Balloon Safaris. We are adventurers at heart, with a penchant for detail and quality, and with each balloon that flies we know we're doing something extraordinarily well.
