Join us on a once in a lifetime experience! We have Hot Air Balloon Safaris launching from the centre of Pilanesberg National Park.
Guests are collected early morning by a registered field guide, in an open safari vehicle from their respective hotels at Sun City Resort or lodges in the Pilanesberg area. Day visitors can be collected from Bakubung Gate. The transfer through the park takes approximately an hour as the balloon launch site is situated in the center of the Pilanesberg National Park. At the launch site the guests will be met by the pilot and crew, who will proceed to give a briefing. Guests will then embark in a 1,2 metre high basket and commence on an unforgettable experience that lasts approximately 45 minutes to an hour. This will undoubtedly be the finest way of viewing the inhabitants of the Pilanesberg National Park. On landing, guests will be served with sparkling wine and orange juice in celebration of the flight. The field guide will then convey the guests through the Pilanesberg National Park to the Wallow bush venue, where a full English breakfast will be enjoyed. Each guest will receive a first flight certificate signed by the Pilot. On completion of breakfast, guests will be returned to their respective hotels. The total duration of this activity is approximately ±5 hours.
VERY IMPORTANT PLEASE NOTE! This activity is extremely weather dependent and a minimum of 4 people is required for the flight to take place. It is advisable that guests book 2 or 3 consecutive mornings as a backup plan.

Wow.... just wow. At first we felt the ballon ride was a bit over priced, but seing the whole setup in the very first morning light, while the balloons were filling, made us understand. And the experience was just breathtaking. I don't think there are many places on Earth where you get a more spectacular and more beautiful backdrop for the experience. We saw plenty of game - especially many rhinos and giraffes. It is definitely one of those mornings we will carry in our hearts for the rest of our lives. We were 3 families (10 people - aged 12-61) - Ane
