Stylish South African ballooning? Sounds good to us. Engage in a little floating luxury with Bill Harrop’s “Original” Balloon Safaris, reflecting the sense of dash and adventure that define the company’s founder — Harrop’s professional accomplishments include ocean yachtsman, hotelier, portrait photographer, advertising executive and balloon pilot examiner. Raising the bar on ballooning expeditions, tours begin with a sunrise departure from Harrop’s Clubhouse, Pavilion & Restaurant in Skeerpoort, located within the Magalies River Valley.

The fleet of six large, colorful hot air balloons can accommodate couples or groups, whether for team building, game viewing or romantic forays. There’s Champagne to sip as you soar above the landscape, and a post-flight Champagne and full English breakfast at the new Clubhouse, Pavilion and Restaurant. The selection of game viewing excursions includes Mabula Private Game Reserve’s Bela Bela area (including transfers and accommodations at Mabula Lodge), and Entabeni Safari Conservancy at the World Heritage Waterberg Biosphere in the Limpopo Province.

Amansara Review

It was more than a car journey; it was a transition between worlds. At our first hotel in Siem Reap, huge coaches constantly pulled up outside the lobby to deposit or receive international tour groups; we departed in very different style, in a 1965 black Mercedes limousine once owned by King Sihanouk. The mundanities of mass tourism were left behind. We progressed through the chaotic Cambodian streets in regal comfort and soon arrived at a solid gate.
