Children aged 0-4 are free to fly. To maximize everyone's safety and enjoyment, our pilots only fly with children who are old enough to understand a preflight briefing and tall enough to see over the side of the basket unaided by a parent or guardian. Parents and guardians should be mindful of flight times with small children who can get bored and restless standing in the balloon for an hour. 5-10 years old will be applied %50 discount. Over 10 years old adult pricing.

No. If you are pregnant or think that you might be pregnant, you should not fly due to the possibility of a bumpy landing. However, if you have friends or family taking a flight with us, we are more than happy to take you to the launch site to see them off and to meet them at the landing site.

Yes, we fly 12 months of the year due to weather conditions.

Balloons travel anywhere between 4 and 20 km, depending on the wind speed that day.

The typical balloon flight extends anywhere from tree level to roughly 2500 feet (750m) above the ground.

We suggest booking in advance, especially if you want to fly on a particular date.

From start to finish, your ballooning adventure will last about 4 hours. The preparation and inflation of the balloon normally takes about 30 minutes and is quite interesting to watch. The flight itself normally takes roughly one hour for standard flights. After the flight, you will have your authentic morrocan breakfast in tent and the return drive back to your hotel or riad. The balloons carry sufficient fuel for a flight time of more than 2 hours, plus a reserve tank for an additional 30 minutes.

Hot air balloons come in varying sizes, with capacities ranging from 2-8-12-16 people. Passengers stand in different compartments in the basket, enabling everyone to enjoy the spectacular views. Balloon volume, outside air temperature, altitude above sea level, and other variables all affect the flight.

The balloon will be followed by a chase vehicle, the ground crew, and the 4X4 will transfer to breakfast area first then transfer you back to your hotel. They are all in constant contact with the balloon pilot by radio and will be at the landing site when your balloon touches down. Once the balloon is packed away, then mobe breakfast area after that return to hotel.

The balloons fly better in cooler weather, since the hot air gives it a better "lift." Balloonists usually fly just after dawn or before dusk because there is less wind.

If the weather does not permit flying, your flight may be delayed until the following morning. We therefore recommend that you book your flight for your first available morning in Marrakech to avoid missing out on this unforgettable experience. If your flight is delayed or cancelled, and you are leaving the following morning, all payments made will be refunded in full. Tickets may be transferred to alternative dates and are valid for one year, subject to our cancellation policy.

Bring your camera, video cam, or phone to capture the best views of the region.

The temperature in the balloon is considerably cooler than on the ground. Thus we advise that you wear long trousers and tops with long sleeves or a jacket. It is important that you wear comfortable footwear, as you will be standing in the balloon for at least an hour

We will meet you at your hotel before your pick up service, depending on your hotel location. We will drive you to the launch site.

Ballooning requires good weather. We do not fly in wind consistently above 15 kmph, rain, snow, or fog. We also do not fly when thunderstorms threaten the area. Myriad other conditions can affect the decision to fly or not to fly, all of which will be duly considered by the pilot to ensure flight safety. The final decision regarding any flight rests with the pilot. If your scheduled flight is cancelled, the flight will be re-scheduled at no additional cost. If you are unable to re-schedule, all payments will be refunded in full.

We will either email you directly or by phone call or contact your hotel with your precise pick-up time one day prior to your flight.

Transfers between your Hotel & Riad and the launch site are included by 4X4

* We have a CTE (Technical Certificate for Air Operations) updated allowing us to transport paying passengers.
 

This only happens in very unique wind conditions. Most flights travel in one direction, with the wind, and then land in a large open area that is accessible by our ground crew.

We usually take off with the sun, the perfect time of day to take great photos and videos durıng flight.
