Description

Come live an unforgettable experience in the silence of the morning. From the nacelle of your hot air balloon, let yourself be amazed by the beauty of the landscape: Berber houses with clay roofs, green palm trees, and the golden immensity of the desert that awakens before your eyes. Carried by the wind, you will float peacefully above the palm grove of Marrakech, in a magical atmosphere where time seems to stand still. Every moment is a living picture, every look a new emotion. An exceptional moment to share as a couple, family or friends.

Ballooning Marrakech

We travelled in August so was lovely and warm, may want a second layer out of peak season. Wear closed shoes, we landed in a field full of spiky plants! Pick up was on time, journey wasn’t too long. Upon arrival you’ll be offered a chance to buy drone footage of your trip, priced about £25, whilst having a cup of Moroccan tea or coffee. Flight was nearly an hour. It was stunning and peaceful, staff and pilot were all friendly. You don’t have to help putting balloon up or down like you do most places in England, which added to the experience in the UK when we went with Virgin. Breakfast was edible but not great. Our pickup was 0450 and we arrived back at hotel before 1000. Overall was great, worth the £100 each or so.

Unforgettable Marrakesh Sunrise with Palms Ballooning!

We had a fantastic sunrise hot air balloon ride over Marrakesh with Palms Ballooning and would highly recommend them to anyone visiting Morocco! The experience started perfectly with a reliable pick-up right on time from our hotel. Our guide and pilot were incredibly friendly, professional, and made us feel safe and comfortable from start to finish. The ascent into the morning sky was completely smooth, and the entire balloon ride felt incredibly stable at all times. The sunrise views were absolutely awesome, and the Atlas Mountains were visible in the distance. Our pilot was great at rotating the balloon throughout the flight, ensuring that people on both sides of the basket got equal views and perfect photo opportunities. The basket itself was very well-designed with partitioned sections, making it ideal, spacious, and comfortable for both families and couples. After landing, we enjoyed a really nice breakfast which we were definitely ready for after the early morning start. We opted for an extra photo and video package booked at the flight area. A couple of days after we got home, we received the drone video and photos. They are awesome, and it has been fantastic to relive the memories. Super value at £24 Do not hesitate to book this trip with Palms Ballooning when you are in Marrakesh—it is worth every penny!

Spectacular

Tried to confirm pick up time and location early in the day, but did not get a response before bed, so wasn’t too happy to get a call moving pick up time from 5:30 to 4:30 am and changing the location. Actual balloon ride was professional and an amazing experience. Would definitely do it again.

Lovely

They come and pick you up very early. The ride to the site isn’t bad. They serve you food twice. You will have the option of something light upon arrival and again after the hot air balloon ride. This is a magical experience. Everything is on time and you don’t do too much waiting around. Great experience.

Magical Experience loved it!!!!!

I was absolutly terrified to do this experiance but really wanted to do it. It was the most magical experience and I can say I highly recommend this company we had a very positive experience. They kept turning the balloon around so everyone got the same views. My only complaint was the comunication before. We had to be picked up early but we had to ask a few times what our pickup time was and it was late the night before we knew the time. I would just reccomend to the company to give times in the afternoon maybe if possible because I would assume people go to bed early for such an early rise. Other then that absolutly magical experiance!!! If your worried just do it!!!!
