Over MoroccoWe've partnered with the award winning Ciel d'Adrique to offer a rarely seen view of Morocco, from a hot-air balloon.

We pick you up at your accommodations between 5:30 and 6:30am (according to the season) in a leather-seated 4 wheel drive vehicle in which we drive to the launch site chosen for that morning.  Once there, the balloon is prepared for flight , and you're welcome to take part in the fun.

When all is ready, you'll board the gondola and on the instruction of the pilot to his ground crew 'cast off' and the magic moment arrives as you rise vertically up towards the Moroccan heavens. As you float along you are followed on the ground by a chase vehicle, in constant radio communication with the pilot and whose crews establish the day's most suitable landing site. Once we have our 'kiss landing', in the worst case we'd have a gentle drag of but a few yards, our 4 wheel drive is awaiting us and after we have collapsed and stored the balloon, we shall make a tour of some of the Berber villages we have over-flown, to stop for a glass or two of mint tea, some Moroccan pastries or fresh bread dipped in olive oil, in the home of one of the Berber inhabitants.

At around midday, you will be taken back to your accommodations in Marrakech, armed with a Certificate to show your friends or family back home that 'We've been there' and a basketful of delightful memories.
