This early morning hot air balloon ride is the ultimate way to start your day in Morocco. You'll get to soar the skies on an hour-long ride over Marrakech and the High Atlas Mountains. And once you land, you'll be treated to a traditional Berber breakfast served in a cosy tent.

Your morning kicks off with an early pick-up from your hotel to begin making your way to the launch spot for your hot air balloon ride. First, you'll be served tea or coffee and a croissant as the balloon is inflated. Then climb in, and you'll be up, up and away – floating through the serene morning skies with views extending over the terracotta roofs of Marrakech, tiny Berber villages and snow-capped High Atlas Mountains in the distance.

You'll see it all as everyone is waking up, and during an hour or so in the air, you'll see Morocco from a whole new angle. On landing, you'll be welcomed into a typical Berber tent for a freshly prepared breakfast.

Picked up from thtel on time by our driver Tarik. A safe and comfortable drive to the balloon site. A short period for administration and a safety briefing. We were offered a mint tea and a couisant both of which were lovely. A short time later we got into the balloon gondola and had a further safety briefing. There then followed an hours magical flight with the pilot giving an informative commentary about the balloon and the Atlas mountains. At the conclusion of the flight a lovely breakfast.

The he experience from start to finish was fantastic.

Amazing trip, was a bit chaotic at first as not sure which balloon we would be going in as a bit of confusion with organisers. Once in the balloon was all good with the guide telling us lots of info

Wonderful experience and really great trip. On arrival the coffee and cake was a nice touch and after the ride the local breakfast was lovely to try. Just a little bit more information would be useful on arrival back to the local breakfast so you know how long you’ll be there before departing to hotel. Same on boarding mini van, we didn’t know how long the journey would take etc… so just a little guidance would have been a nice touch.

The whole experience was excellent ???? However, we did think the cost of the experience was over priced and initially nearly stopped us booking.

Great experience, highlight of our holiday. Tour guide / driver extremely helpful and knowledgeable and took good care of us. Balloon pilot was excellent and gave lots of information about Morocco and flying the balloon.
