Hello, I am staying at the Melia Lodge in August 2022. I would like to do the Balloon ride and was wondering if it is feasible to do it the same morning if I have a flight out from Seronera at 11:30am. If so, will you pick me up at the lodge the morning of the ride or the evening prior? Will the tour organizers be able to drop me off at the airport instead of lodge. Thanks

Thank you so much for your enquiry! We fly from Central Serengeti (throughout the year) and the Western Corridor (Jun-Oct) or Ndutu (20th Dec-31st March) every morning and the price is $599 per person all inclusive in a shared balloon. This includes from your camp or lodge (early!) and transfer to the launch site for a dawn take-off. After a wonderful flight of approximately 1 hour, we will give you a champagne toast on landing and then a ‘full english’ breakfast under a tree before returning you to your safari guide at the Seronera Visitors Centre or some other mutually agreed location. The price does not include park entry fees, which are usually covered in the tour operator package.
