Overview
What makes this journey special
Dawn balloon flight over Ruaha’s wild river valleys and baobab country.
Ruaha’s balloon experience lifts off before sunrise for a slow drift over one of Tanzania’s most remote big-game landscapes – the Great Ruaha River, fig-lined sand rivers and open woodland where elephant, lion and kudu move below.
Wild Gaze Safaris is based in Iringa, 108 km from the park gate, and can slot the flight into southern circuit itineraries that include at least one night inside Ruaha.
