Leave central Marrakech before sunrise for a roughly one-hour balloon flight to about 3,000 feet. Meet pilots such as Captain Adam or Ramin, enjoy mountain views, receive a flight certificate, then have Berber breakfast and ride a camel in the Palmeraie.

“The tour was pretty basic and the camel ride was pretty sad. Individuals are always nice. I appreciate the swift response from coordinators especially when confirming location since they don’t really pick people that are staying at Riads, but rather have them meet up at dark times of the morning.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.1 · 4 reviews · 5 hours · from $198

Start before dawn with pickup, a Berber breakfast at a traditional kasbah, and a one-hour balloon flight over Marrakech, the desert, and Atlas Mountains. A camel ride through the palm grove follows. English and French support is available, with a personalized flight certificate included.

“really great, amazing experience and very well organised only constructive feedback would be that our first communication was late in the afternoon before the flight - a message a bit earlier, maybe a day before, saying when to expect to know the pickup time would be helpful to put minds at ease highly recommend!”
