Balloon trip - Kenya

[joannie10]

Going to Kenya in January. Have arranged two Safaris, one which includes Tsavo West National Park, Amboseli, Mzima Springs, Shetani Lava flow and back to Mombasa. The other an overnighter to Masai Mara. Had hoped to include a flight in a hot air balloon which we know will be very expensive but seemingly worth every penny. The Safari Company have provided us with a quotation but wondered if anyone could recommend a Company from experience just so we can 'shop around' a bit. Many thanks in advance

as I recall a couple of camps in the Masai Mara do their own balloon flights - Governors and Serena, I think. They're done at dawn so you might be able to squeeze one in on your night there. Don't know what current prices are (or indeed if they're still doing them, as it was a few years ago when I was there).
