- 43femif0 contributionsUnique and magical experienceFrom beginning to end our ride experience was magical and inspiring. The welcome area upon arriving was such a beautiful atmosphere. We were given clear instructions and made to understand it is a very safe experience. After our wonderful hour of floating at sunrise we were driven back for a very generous breakfast and had nice conversation with the owner. Overall, an excellent time!Written 21 November 2024

- kimbJ7103FN0 contributionsAdventure of a LifetimeMy husband and I had an unforgettable experience on our hot air balloon ride. From start to finish, the company provided an exceptional experience. We began the morning with a brief overview of how the balloon operates, which included detailed safety measures and insight into the balloonist's extensive training. The meeting area was stunning, and we appreciated the thoughtful touch of offering tea and coffee before the adventure began. Our balloonist was professional and attentive, ensuring we boarded the balloon safely while creating a fun and relaxed atmosphere. The morning view from the balloon was breathtaking, and the ride ended perfectly with a delicious traditional Berber breakfast. Highly recommend this experience!

- Anthony U0 contributionsAmazing views with a courteous and passionate balloon pilotYousuf was incredibly kind and accommodating on our balloon ride and was capable of relaying instructions in multiple languages! The views were spectacular, and I would argue that one of the prettiest sunrises can be observed 2000ft above the ground in this companies balloon. Cheers guysWritten 7 January 2024

A well organized excursion, I am so happy I decided to book this sunrise balloon ride with this group. Seamless planning as we received communication through emails, WhatsApp messages on the exact time of our pick up and delivery back to our hotel. The view from above was breathtaking and our ride ..smooth. Our tour guides displayed a well coordinated effort with teams on the ground to ensure our safe landing. Once safely on the ground, we were surprised with a meal fit for royalty.
A definite do-over for me should I ever visit the region again.

My family and I had the most unforgettable experience with Yousef and the Ballooning Experience team! The hot air balloon ride was truly magical, with breathtaking views and a sense of serenity that left us all in awe. Yousef and his crew were exceptional - professional, friendly, and dedicated to ensuring our safety and comfort throughout the entire journey. The post-flight breakfast was a delightful surprise, plentiful and delicious. If you're seeking a unique and unforgettable adventure, look no further than Ballooning Experience! We highly recommend it and give it a well-deserved 5 stars

My teenage daughter and I had a magical time on our hot air balloon ride with Ballooning Experience and it was definitely a highlight of our trip to Morocco. The owner Youssef was very involved in the whole experience from explaining everything to us before the ride (and putting any of our fears aside) and he then attended the post ride breakfast and personally explained to each guest what the Moroccan food was and the best combinations to eat. It was clear he was very passionate about his business and his culture. I was very impressed with the whole experience.

A magical ballooning experience over the diverse landscape of Morocco with the best Captain, Youssef. From the time he picked us up to the minute he dropped us to our Riad, we had a positive, inspiring and welcoming visit, great conversation and a dream come true ballooning trip. This was my first time in a balloon, and I think it will take a lot to top this one.
Highly recommend the experience!! Thank you Youssef, Keep up the great job.

This was one of the most memorable experiences we have had in Morocco. The communication before and during the excursion were outstanding. We were picked up promptly and delivered to a magical location. We were treated as honored guests. The ride itself was amazing. The breakfast feast that followed was exceptional. From start to finish we had an outstanding experience. If you are considering a balloon ride, there is no better option than this one. Book now!
