A fantastic experience

The baloon flight is not actually over Marrakecch, but over the desert (this is not a problem at all), with magnificent views of the Atlas Mountains and an unbelievable sunrise. We flew at 1000m in height, much higher than any of the other baloons around us. Maurice, the owner and pilot of the company operating the baloon, is extremely professional and makes you feel that he cares for your safety. A fantastic experience for a special occasion!
