Something special is taking flight this festive season.
As 2026 begins its final stretch, Bill Harrop’s “Original” Balloon Safaris is bringing you a series of special ways to experience the magic of a sunrise balloon safari.
Some are designed for sharing. Some are made for celebrating. And some are for those moments when you want the balloon entirely to yourselves.
The first Festive Flight has arrived.
Festive Flight No. 1: The Private Four
One balloon. Four passengers. Entirely yours.
Four people. Your own private balloon. Your own pilot. No other passengers sharing your basket.
For October and November 2026, The Private Four is an exclusive Monday-to-Thursday private hot air balloon safari created for exactly four passengers.
R21,995 for four passengers
A private balloon experience normally starting from R32,000.
Two couples. Four friends. A family celebrating something special. Or simply four people who would rather have the balloon to themselves.
Available Monday to Thursday only.
To qualify for The Private Four rate, the reservation must be booked, paid in full and flown during October or November 2026.
