Floating above Tarangire!!!
The most incredible experience! Thanks so much to Capt Paddy and team - truly amazing with memories that will last forever. Capt Paddy was fun to be with, he has a great sense of humor. The champagne and full English breakfast served with a backdrop of the Tarangire was just phenomenal. The "loos with views" are a fun touch to the experience!

Balloon Trip Tarangire National Park
On the 25th of June we had this amazing balloon trip in Tarangire National Park with pilot Moses and his team. On the way up we saw a group of lions, welcoming us. Arriving at the start we had a warm welcome with coffee and even washrooms. After briefing we took off and saw an amazing sunrise and wildlife. Landing we had champagne and breakfast. As our son called it a “below deck” experience. The team
Made it even more personalized by special cake and song for our sons graduation. Thanks to Moses and his team ! An experience we will never forget!

A very special experience!
We had the most amazing experience on the hot air balloon over tarangire. We got so close to herds of buffalo & some elephants, so special. You feel like a drone! We were up there for 1.5 hours and followed with a delicious breakfast & local songs/dances for us! Quite special. Highly recommend :)

Highlight of our trip
Our safari tour was amazing but the balloon safari with miracle experience made it even more special and a memory we will never forget! It was definitely our highlight! Especially our pilot Baris did an awesome job and we would definitely recommend to go on a tour with him.
Also the whole crew did a great job and the breakfast was delicious.
We enjoyed every minute of it and would definitely do it again.

Incredible experience
We had an absolutely incredible (and safe!) experience ballooning with Captain Paddy! Miracle Balloon Safari thought of everything and treated us like VIPs throughout the process. From pre-takeoff coffee & tea, to champagne upon landing, to gourmet breakfast with the elephants.

Bucket list item - ticked off at last!
Taking a hot air ballon ride has been on my bucket list for over 20 years - but I always promised myself that I would only tick it off if I could fly somewhere very special. That opportunity came as the culmination of a 13 day luxury safari holiday across 4 camps in Kenya and Tanzania - and I'm delighted to say flying with Miracle Balloon Safaris FAR EXCEEDED my VERY HIGH EXPECTATIONS. The experience was incredible - seamlessly organised, highly professional, amazing fun and was filled with many memorable surprises - I won't describe those here so I don't spoil it for others but I will say book this experience without hesitation - you definitely won't regret it. Thank you to Captain Ali and your whole support team - our flight was a dream come true. All the best David & Christine, Sydney Australia

Memorable Adventure
What an amazing adventure gently flying over the Serengeti! At first, I was unsure of the company since I have not done any research porier to the balloon ride. However, our guide recommended the company as a very nice experience. It was better than what I was told about balloon rides it was amazing! You were greeted with coffee and or tea and cookies which were delish. Next was the strapping of harness and into the basket we all went. At that time our captain Matthew gave us safety and landing instructions.... Matthew was very assuring of our ride. We were able to catch the sunrise and see the elephants, zebras, antipole, and hennas as we floated pass trees and streams. The landing was the most exciting experience I have encountered as we landed on our backs dragging through the grass until we came to a full stop! We were all greeted with a Champane toast with orange juice as the Workes sang and danced for us. Then onto an amazing breakfast in the bush with eggs to order. Tip: don't forget to use the outdoor faculties with an amazing view. This adventure was more than I could ever imagine especially the landing which I will never forget. Thank you for all your hard work in making this a memorable adventure.
