Get ready for an exhilarating journey as we unveil a brand-new film that will take your breath away! 'Touching the Sky' - a celebration of over 35 years of adventure and innovation in Tanzania's skies.
Serengeti Balloon Safaris (SBS) is thrilled to present its latest creation, a captivating film that showcases the incredible journey of this pioneering company. Founded by Tony Pascoe and Colin MacKinnon, true visionaries in their field, SBS brought the magic of ballooning to Tanzania for the very first time. Watch the film here and be prepared to be inspired!
'Touching the Sky', brought to life by the talented team at Love Africa, captures the very essence of SBS's mission. It tells the story of how two adventurous Englishmen turned their dream into a thriving Tanzanian enterprise, employing over 150 locals and training the country's first ballooning pilot and examiner. But here's where it gets controversial... SBS doesn't just stop at offering an unforgettable experience; it actively contributes to conservation efforts, community projects, and personnel development, ensuring a positive impact on Tanzania's precious natural world.
The heart of this film beats with passion. It's the passion that fueled SBS's inception and continues to drive its team to deliver the ultimate balloon safari experience. And this is the part most people miss... it's this unwavering passion that has earned SBS the prestigious title of 'World's Leading Balloon Ride Operator' in 2024 (World Travel Awards) and a spot on the shortlist again this year!
John Corse, MD of SBS, shares his pride: "This film truly encapsulates our company's rich heritage, our unwavering passion, and our vision for the future."
So, whether you've had the privilege of flying with us or are dreaming of doing so, we invite you to embark on this journey. Let 'Touching the Sky' transport you to the breathtaking world of Serengeti Balloon Safaris. Asante, from the entire SBS team!
