Exclusive Balloon Experience
You will be taken by your appointed ranger to the Newington gate at 05:00 from where you will be transferred to the balloon launch site in time for a cup of coffee before the balloon departs. An excellent Cape sparkling wine, fruit juice and a light snack is served on landing. After your flight, you are taken to a country restaurant for a private breakfast. The meal is prepared by a gourmet chef, and served on a deck overlooking a peaceful garden, entertained by the sound of birdsong and softly running water. You may choose to invite your pilot and crew chief to join you for breakfast (if you want to hear all the old ballooning stories and be awarded your certificates) or not – the choice is yours. Flight certificates can be posted to you if necessary. When you have eaten your fill, and relaxed for long enough, you will be returned to Ulusaba.
