Hot
Air Balloon at Lake Elementaita
Kenya
(Lake
Elementaita is 25 minutes after Naivasha &
30 minutes before Nakuru)
Hot
Air balloon ride at Lake Elementaita in Kenya
are operated by GoBallooning Kenya - the only
company operating the balloon in Lake Nakuru,
Lake Naivasha and Elementaita area. The ride
starts in the cool crisp air before sunrise,
so that you can catch the rays when already
air-borne- fantastic!
It
takes off from Soysambu ranch, and is cheaper
than the Masai Mara balloon safari. The cost
may seem prohibitive until you discover just
what is included in the package, plus once
you're done with the experience you'll be
convinced it was worth every penny.
Over
an hour's ride, it takes you upto 4,000metres
above sea level, to heights from which you
may easily view lakes Nakuru, Naivasha and
Elementaita- all at once, plus Mt. Kenya,
Hell's Gate National Park, and the 'Sleeping
Masai Warrior' hill! Those afraid of heights-
forget your phobia because the ride is so
smooth you won't believe how much you would
have missed out on!
Hot
Air balloon ride at Lake Elementaita gives
you a chance to see Lake Elementaita from
an entirely different angle, with its flamingos
taking off en masse in pink streaks, the only
sound being the ruffle of their wings.
The
lake is bordered on one side by a wildlife
sanctuary, so go on an 'airy' game drive and
watch the giraffes, buffaloes and other animals
running away from this strange object floating
high above them.
And
back on the ground, a bush breakfast awaits-
from sparkling wine to hot and cold courses,
eaten at leisure- after all, you paid for
it! And to top it all, GoBallooning give you
a giveaway package to remember your 'voyage
through diversity and time'.

Great
Rift Valley in Kenya
|
Great
Rift Valley in Kenya
"The
Great Rift Valley is one of the most awe-inspiring
sights on earth, but the best way to see
the rift is from above. It will literally
give you a birds eye view of the valley
as you join flocks of flamingo soaring high
across lakes, volcanoes and forest. Kenya's
wide-open spaces and 'big sky' country make
this fantastic ballooning country.
The
geographic wonders of the Great Rift Valley
offer a spectacular new alternative. Born
of a major shift beneath the Earths surface
over 35 million years ago, the massive Rift
valley is one of natural wonders of the
world, easily visible from outer space.
The
valley stretches 6000 km's from Jordan to
Mozambique, with its width varying from
between 30 to 100 kilometers. The valley
is at its most spectacular in Kenya, its
floor studded with dormant volcanoes and
fresh water and soda lakes, attracting a
wide range of big game and bird life.
When
exploring the rift, it is difficult to gain
a clear perspective of the scale and sheer
size of the valley, which is where a balloon
comes in handy. Rising from the floor, you
can appreciate the entire Rift, both in
its vast entirety and the many natural elements
and ecosystems that bring the valley to
life.
