Top Arusha Safaris

This was an amazing experience and if you are travelling to the Serengeti, a hot air balloon ride is an absolute must do. Within 5 minutes of being in the air we spotted wildebeest crossing the river! What a sight! The rest of the flight was just as exceptional and being so quiet and travelling at treetop height, we were able to see the animals closeup.The only downside was our driver who arrived 40 minutes late. He had overslept. Pretty disappointing especially when we had set the alarm and been up at 4am for the experience. Hopefully it was a one off and won’t happen to you.

Incredible experience, not to be missed! If you have the opportunity and are sitting on the fence, just do it - you won't regret it! Our captain, Rammy was excellent, funny and made our experience memorable. The bush breakfast afterwards was amazing too.

We made a game drive in Ngorongoro Crater with our guides Alex and Omar. They were really friendly and told us interesting information about the animals and environment. We laughed a lot and i can only recommend it.

A wonderful experience. Such a different perspective of the Serengeti from above than down on the ground. Wildebeests, Zebra, Elons! And surrounding landscapes from the sky. It was magnificent and so is this company. They are organized, friendly, knowledgeable and safe. I highly recommend their services.

Amazing experience with these guys. First class from start to finish. Highly recommended, views were sensational.

This was so amazing ! We loved going all the animals and the Serengeti from the sky! Our guide was fabulous and it was such a smooth ride! The breakfast, entertainment and bathrooms with a view were great as well.

Our morning began with a prompt 4:30 AM pickup from our lodge in a comfortable, luxury 4x4 Jeep. The night drive to the launch site was a surprise highlight in itself, our driver expertly swept a spotlight across the terrain, revealing thousands of glowing eyes as resting wildebeest lined the roadsides. We were even lucky enough to spot a mother jackal and her two adorable cubs perched on a dirt mound, curiously staring back at our headlights. Highlight of the ride was seeing a leopard for the first time and right in front of our vehicle resting in some tall grass. Upon arrival at the launch site, the Miracle team had set up a welcoming spread of coffee, tea, and light snacks, along with clean, convenient facilities to use prior to departure. Our pilot, Felipe, conducted a clear, thorough safety briefing before guiding us into the basket. The takeoff was effortless and exhilarating. As dawn broke, the early morning light turned the sky magical, dotted with colorful hot air balloons. Felipe navigated our balloon significantly higher than the others—several thousand feet up. While the elevated vantage point offered breathtaking, picture-perfect views of the sunrise and the fleet of balloons floating below, it ultimately took away from the main goal of our flight. Being at that altitude meant we missed out on close-up views of the landscape, the Mara River, and the wildlife. Because so much time was spent ascending and descending, our actual low-level animal viewing was limited to roughly 10 minutes of the entire flight. That said, Felipe’s expertise, deep knowledge, and smooth landing were undeniably top-tier. The post-flight experience was pure safari luxury: * The Toast: Upon landing, the ground crew greeted us with a celebratory champagne toast and captured photos of the moment. * The Bush Breakfast: We were whisked away to an exquisite, open-air tented setup right out of a movie scene—complete with fine table settings, an attentive service crew, and a scrumptious breakfast spread. * The Atmosphere: The team brought incredible energy, celebrating birthdays and anniversaries with singing, dancing, and cake cutting. Even the charming open-air "loo with a view" added a perfect touch of wild fun. The Verdict: The Miracle team excels at creating a high-end, luxury experience with phenomenal hospitality and flawless logistics from start to finish. However, if your main objective is spending extended time hovering low over wildlife, be sure to communicate that preference with your pilot before takeoff. Overall, it was a memorable morning, even if we wished for more time low over the plains.

The Serengeti looks incredible from the ground, but seeing it from a hotair balloon at sunrise is on another level. Floating quietly above the endless plains while watching the wildlife below was something I will never forget. A special mention to our pilot Boris, who was excellent throughout the entire experience. He was extremely professional, knowledgeable and made us feel safe and comfortable while also making the flight really enjoyable. The sunrise over the Serengeti was simply breathtaking. The champagne celebration and bush breakfast after landing made the experience even more special. 🥂🌅 One of the absolute highlights of my Tanzania trip. Thank you Miracle Experience and especially Boris for creating such an unforgettable memory! 🦁🎈 Highly recommended if you are visiting the Serengeti.

It was an amazing experience and Marina was a superb and very competent pilot. She was enthusiastic, informative and very safety conscious giving clear instructions and constantly monitoring her passengers and surroundings and her handling of the balloon insured great viewing and a comfortable takeoff and landing. She also made us all feel really welcome.

its First Time in baloon safari ....This was amazing and make my memory alive........ Thanks for make my dream come true

Today, 13th September 2026, I had my very first Balloon Safari over the Serengeti with Miracle Air, and I must say… Captain Danford made every penny worth it! 🙌🏽From the moment we took off, Captain Danford was professional, confident, and clearly knew exactly what he was doing.What impressed me most was how he managed our altitude. While I watched some other balloons flying so high that passengers needed binoculars to see the wildlife, our captain balanced between higher altitude and lower, tree-level flying whenever appropriate, giving us an incredible eye-level view of the Serengeti from above. 🦁🐘🦒And then came something AMAZING… 🤯❤️🎈 Captain Danford gave us a panoramic 360° turn!We literally got a full 360° view of the Serengeti from the sky. I bet we were the only ones getting that experience! 😊❤️And let's not forget the punctuality of the pickup. We were picked up right on time, while we saw clients from other balloon companies still waiting at their reception. ⏰👏🏽From take-off to landing, everything felt well organized and professional.THANK YOU, MIRACLE AIR, FOR AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE! ❤️🎈And a huge thank you to Safari 56 for organizing this experience and for choosing Miracle Air for us. You made my first Balloon Safari one I will never forget! 🥂⭐ MY RATINGS🎈 Captain Danford — 10/10 🥐 Bush Breakfast — 10/10 🎈 Miracle Air Team — 10/10 🚐 Pickup — 10/10 🦁 Safari Company — SAFARI 56: 10/10First Balloon Safari?

Thank you for one of the most beautiful and amazing adventures! Everything was perfectly orchestrated! Our pilot, Michael, was superb in making sure our views were spectacular..Cheers!

About a month ago, we had the opportunity to take a hot-air balloon flight with Miracle Experience over the Serengeti. It was truly one of the most amazing experiences we have ever had as a family.The balloon flight itself was absolutely spectacular, but what made the experience even more special was the entire package surrounding it.Our experience started at 4:00 AM, with a transfer in complete darkness through the Serengeti. Even the journey to the launch site became part of the adventure, with stops along the way to observe lions and other wildlife during the night. Experiencing the Serengeti at those early hours, seeing the nocturnal life of the animals, and driving through the reserve in complete darkness was an adventure in itself.When we arrived at the launch area, we received a wonderful welcome, including hot drinks, high-quality snacks, and warm clothing for anyone who needed it. Everything was thoughtfully prepared and made us feel comfortable despite the early hour and cold morning.We then had a short and professional briefing from our excellent balloon captain, Rosa Parera, who immediately gave us confidence and made us even more excited for the flight.The flight itself was simply incredible. Seeing the Serengeti from above and watching the wildlife from a completely different perspective was an unforgettable experience. We were able to observe the animals from the air while enjoying a hot cup of coffee, surrounded by the breathtaking sunrise and endless Serengeti landscape.After landing, we were treated to a wonderful and elegant toast, followed by transportation to an amazing breakfast location. The breakfast was served out in the middle of nature and was of an exceptionally high standard. The experience was made even more special by a fantastic traditional singing and dancing performance.Even the restroom facilities were something special — beautifully arranged in nature with a unique and spectacular view. It was an incredible attention to detail and another example of how much thought Miracle Experience puts into the entire experience.From the early-morning pickup to the wildlife encounters, the balloon flight, the hospitality, the breakfast, and the entertainment — every single part of the experience was exceptional.A huge thank you to the entire Miracle Experience team, and especially to Captain Rosa Parera, for giving our family such an unforgettable experience.We highly recommend Miracle Experience to anyone visiting the Serengeti. It is much more than just a hot-air balloon flight — it is a complete, beautifully organized and truly unforgettable Serengeti experience! 🇹🇿🎈🦁🐘

The one Thing everyone should do, who get the chance!

Amazing experience! We were well taken care of by the experienced guides and ground staff. It’s slightly pricey but definitely worth it.
