Today’s flight report sums up ballooning over the Serengeti at its best

HerdTracker update 15 Jan 2019 by Serengeti Balloon Safaris

Balloon safari over the Serengeti at its best!

The herds are scattered on the short plains of the southern Serengeti from the Naabi Hill to the Hidden Valley throughout the Ngorongoro Conservation Area.

The balloon flight progressed slowly across the plains to the edge of the forested area. After an hour and 17 minutes, two balloons made an ever so gentle landing close to the bush breakfast spot.

The nearest accommodation to the herds: Lemala Ngorongoro Tented Camp, Serengeti National Park Safaris

Recommended safari: Affordable Fly-in Ngorongoro and Migration Safari

Monthly Herdtracker Migration Safaris

Join our HerdTracker guides on a scheduled HerdTracker Migration Safari. Stay at the right place, at the right time as our expert HerdTracker guides gets you close to nature's greatest spectable.
