Simply put, a hot air balloon safari is a sunrise wildlife tour from the sky. You’ll step into a basket beneath a vibrant, heated-air balloon and gently rise above national parks, game reserves, and breathtaking natural landscapes.
Unlike a bumpy jeep ride, the balloon floats silently, no roads, no crowds, just endless panoramic views and the soft whispers of the wild below.
Absolutely! Hot air balloon safaris are very safe when operated by reputable companies. The pilots are highly trained and certified, and the balloons are meticulously maintained. Wind and weather conditions are closely monitored, and if it’s not safe to fly, the trip will simply be postponed or canceled.

Whether it’s your first time in Africa or a returning dreamer, Kipe Adventures promises a luxury safari in Tanzania that’s nothing short of extraordinary.
Generally, the best time to visit Tanzania is during the dry season from July to October, when the parks are dry and wildlife viewing is at its most dramatic and action-packed.
That said, every season has its own advantages, so it’s worth giving us a call to discuss the best fit for your trip. For example, June and October/November are fantastic shoulder season months that offer incredible wildlife experiences at a fraction of peak-season prices, along with special offers and low-season rates.
Ngorongoro is amazing year round – it is not very big, and so the animals can’t widely disperse when there is plentiful grass and water. February is the very best time to see the Great Migration as the wildebeest congregate in the southern plains’ during calving season.
The parks of Southern Tanzania are classically dry-season parks so definitely best from July – October. Outside these months, the wildlife can be trickier to find than in Northern Tanzania.
As Ruaha and The Selous are relatively low land compared to northern Tanzania, they are affected a bit more by the rains. The Selous is closed from mid-March to the end of May, as the camps are inaccessible when it has been very wet. Ruaha is also mostly closed at this time of year too.
Both October and November can be very hot in the Selous which is worth noting if you are not a fan of high temperatures.
