Just double check that your driver is with the correct company when they pick you up at the hotel, as there are other companies that do similar activities that won’t check names. Other than that, a fantastic experience!”

We loved this experience- watching the sunrise over the Atlas Mountains was just magical, it was very well organised from the moment we arranged where to be picked up. Highly recommend!”

Amazing way to see this beautiful city and great alternative to a camel ride. Only criticism would be that the breakfast wasn't up to much so perhaps eat something beforehand.”

I'm somewhat afraid of heights but this was amazing! The guides and the drivers were super professional and old time for pickup from Riad. The balloon guy, who I believe may have been the manager owner of the company, was funny but a bit crass.
It was an amazing and beautiful experience. I would totally do it again.”

What an amazing experience, from start to finish this trip will give you a lifetime of memories. From being picked up to being dropped off you will not be disappointed, the staff are funny and friendly, the balloon is magnificent, and the camels were clean, well looked after and loved selfies. Highly recommended.”

Great morning out! Pick-up was easy and we were taken straight to camp where breakfast was provided. As the sun rises, you get to see the balloon inflated before jumping in for some break taking views over Marrakech. The camel ride was a great addition as well through the palm grove. ”

Everything worked out exactly as promised, from real early pickup, to refreshments, the flight and also the landing -, breakfast and camel ride. It was really nice to do the sunrise flight we were prepared, but some fellow passengers were not really: people: you need warm clothes for the early morning....very funny pilot,...”

Great experience from beginning to end! Early morning pick-up on time, great reception at the departure point and beautiful and smooth flight! Great Berber style breakfast after an early morning start! Camel ride was fun and all staff were friendly and made sure we were always looked after and having a good time! Highly recommended experience if you are in Marrakech. ”

This experience is definitely worth every cent! Marrakech By Air did a fabulous job making sure everyone had an awesome time from pick up to drop off. The balloon ride was like a comedy show in the sky and breakfast and the camel ride were delightful as well. I loved every second of it!”

This tour was amazing! Fantastic service, very knowledgeable pilot and team. Unfortunately the sky was cloudy but even then we were able to see the Atlas Mountains and have a great experience.”

They pick up at my hotel at 5.45 it was not in the centre, but close take a a 30 minutes ride into the desert. Its quiet cold, so take a jacket and a hat! They waited for us with some croissaint and hot tea and coffee. After they blow up the balloon, we were flying for about 45 minutes. After we ate a breakfast jam, honey, olives, breads, eggs and went to the camel ride place. thi sis really touristic and I felt sorry for the animals We arrived back to the hotel around 11.00 a.m.”

Fantastic experience. Do not expect much instruction starting with the pick up. The driver never spoke to us but to try a make a joke about being held up for our money. In general the Pilot was good, landed on the gondalia on the trailer, but offered only bad jokes, nothing about what we were seeing. All in all though I would recommend as the overall experience is memorable.”

This was was first balloon ride. Pickup from hotel was on time arrived at departure point just before dawn. What an experience. Tea, coffee and croissants next to bonfires as balloon was inflated. Amazing views and very humerous pilot. Landed to breakfast in tent. Well worth it.”

This experience was amazing! We were collected from our Riad at the correct time and taken to a lovely setting to await departure. The drivers were friendly and our hot air balloon pilot/guide was absolutely hilarious but also informative making the ride so much more enjoyable. The views were lovely and there were plenty of photo opportunities. I think it was a good length of time not too long or short. The breakfast was nice served in a stunning Moroccan style outdoor tent followed by camel rides closer to the medina. The camel ride staff were friendly and funny, offering to take photos and cracking lots of jokes. We were back at our riad by 11am so plenty of time for more activities in the afternoon. Highly recommend!”

Excellent trip. All of the guides and assistants were great fun. My mother struggled to climb in and out of the balloon basket and they simply carried her out! The breakfast was great and even the camels were friendly!”

I went with my mother to the Hot Air Ballon Ride, and it was one of the best moments in Marrakesh for both of us, our guide was a blast, really funny guy, telling jokes each five minutes and completing the awesome experience of riding a balloon during the sunrise in the outer part of Marrakesh. The breakfast was a plus, and the camel ride was ok, not great but ok.
I really recommend anyone there to try the trip if you have the time and the money, it is definitely a must!.”

Amazing Experience! Tour Guide was very friendly, funny, and a great company over all. Food served was also very good.
Highly recommend - if you book it when you get to Marrakesh it will be cheaper but I would still recommend it despite the price”

The owner of the balloon was a hoot and very professional! I loved the hot air balloon ride but could have lived without the camel ride :. I also think that there also should be an age factor when booking the hot air balloon. Children under 10 should not be allowed because they get scarred. I felt bad for this 4yr old that joined us but it made the ride uncomfortable as the child kept yelling no. The owner of the balloon really tried hard to make the child comfortable but it was really frustrating to listen to how scarred the child was. This was my first balloon ride and was disrupted... But this is not the fault of the company. He was great! I would recommend this company.”
