Description
If you want to discover Marrakech from another perspective, this is your activity! Fly over Marrakech in a hot-air balloon, guided by the wind.
One hour from the centre and the famous Jemaa el-Fna square, the balloon awaits you for a journey through time. During the flight you will discover the striking contrast between the city and the surrounding countryside.
Early-morning pick-up at your hotel and transfer to the take-off point. The flight lasts about an hour depending on weather conditions, followed by a light snack in one of the villages flown over. Return to the hotel around midday. Flights always leave early in the morning depending on the season; we will confirm the departure time when you book.
Ballooning is the safest form of air transport. The company we work with is the only one licensed for these flights and can also fly over the Erg Chebbi desert. All its balloons are inspected by the Civil Aviation authority and meet every safety standard. The pilots are highly qualified, accredited by the Moroccan and European Civil Aviation authorities, with hundreds of flying hours.
This activity is also available in the Erg Chebbi desert, Merzouga, if booked in advance.
