A hot-air balloon flight from Marrakech: what can you expect?

At first light, our team will pick you up at your Marrakech residence and take you to the take-off site just north of the palm grove.

Our flights from Marrakech are organized in the morning, not only because the weather conditions are optimal, but also because sunrise is a spectacular moment that sets the surrounding landscape ablaze.
While you enjoy a delicious Moroccan coffee or tea, you'll have the opportunity to watch the preparation of your hot-air balloon.

Climb into your basket for an hour-long escapade in the Moroccan sky. Your pilot will show you the spectacular scenery in and around Marrakech. During your hot-air balloon flight, you'll change altitude regularly. You'll fly over a wide variety of panoramas: mountainous landscapes, desert zones, cultivated plots, oases... An adventure out of time and out of everyday life. To make the most of this experience, it's essential to take a few precautions. Bear in mind that in the desert, especially at high altitudes at sunrise, temperatures can be chilly. So pack warm clothes for the start of the flight. When the sun rises, it can become intense, so having a cap or hat handy is always a good idea!

If you're a photography enthusiast, now's the time to indulge yourself and draw on your best lenses to immortalize the Moroccan sky. It's also a good time to invest in a safety strap for your camera and smartphone...
You'll be given a flight certificate, handwritten in the purest Berber tradition, as an authentic souvenir of your aerial adventure in the Moroccan skies. Join us in the traditional tent for a typical Moroccan breakfast. This convivial moment will allow you to exchange your impressions with the other passengers. After your flight, share a Moroccan breakfast with your fellow passengers! We'll get you back to Marrakech by 10:00 am, leaving you free to continue your Moroccan holiday !
