Do you want to celebrate a special moment with your partner or loved ones? We offer you an exclusive experience with our private hot-air balloon flight over Marrakech. You will be the only one in the basket, with your pilot, to admire the breathtaking view of the typical Moroccan landscapes, from the desert to the oases and even as far as the Atlas Mountains. A moment you will never forget!
Take-off areaThe balloon always takes off from the
Marrakech palm grove, from our launch pad in
Ouled El Garne. The exact take-off time and the direction the balloon will take are decided on the day itself, depending on the weather conditions.
Flight programme- Before take-off:We will
pick you up directly from your accommodation at the agreed time, early in the morning. Our 4x4 will then take you to the take-off area, using some dirt tracks. On site, our team will
welcome you with a Moroccan tea, before you take your place in the basket. On board, you will be given a
safety briefing to ensure the flight goes as smoothly as possible. Then the balloon will gently take off.
- During the ride:The flight is scheduled to last
between 40 and 60 minutes and is divided into two parts: the first, at high altitude, will give you a panoramic view of the whole region; the second, at a lower altitude, will provide you with a more detailed view of the surrounding villages and farms as well as the Jbilet mountains. Your pilot will be happy to adjust the flight to suit your wishes and answer any questions you may have. A steward will also be on hand to
offer you drinks and fresh fruit.
- After landing:Once you are back on the ground, the 4x4 will take you back to the take-off area. A table will be reserved for you under the caidal tent to enjoy a
typical Berber breakfast prepared by the women of the village. Then, after collecting your flight certificate, we will take you back to your accommodation.
