  • Join me on a fabulous hot air balloon flight over Namibia's desert at sunrise (shot in 4K), followed by a Champagne breakfast buffet in a spectacular natural setting.
    The flight is operated by Namib Sky, the pioneer of ballooning in Namibia (balloon-safaris.com/).

    The wife and I just came back from Namibia a week ago. This was one of the most spectacular parts of the trip. There are simply not enough words to describe this experience, and the words i have do not do it justice.

    When I was there I rented a stunt pilot and a WW2 era fighter plane.
    I spent the day doing barrel rolls and loopy loops over the dessert and ocean.
    Namibia 🇳🇦 is a beautiful country!

      This series WILL be hard to top, that's for sure! But if anyone can, It would be Doc! The balloon isn’t even ready to go yet and the sunrise is A-MAZE-ZING!🤩🤯 But you could offer me $100 million and I'd never get in the 🎈. Seriously. Nope. I'd be dead before they released the tether rope. Or best case out cold. Delaying the launch for everyone. I much prefer this version!😁

  • @brahminangirasgotraraniselvisu

    1989 I was in Kenya also on Hot air balloon. It was also very early in the morning at sunrise. Had also breakfast in the middle of nowhere! During that time was living in The Netherlands as college girl in Rotterdam. Had KLM flight from Amsterdam - Nairobi arranged by Arke Reizen touroperator.

    My most favourite part of Africa is Namibia.. it’s pristine landscape and colourful landscape are simply breathtaking beautiful beyond words . I have camped in the ancient dunes in October of 2016 .. it’s a bitter cold place at night and by day it’s boiling hot . The silence is what makes it’s so unique. And in a hot air balloon it’s magical .. if only the people kept quiet and appreciated the surroundings and the quietness. As a landscape photographer there is no better place to photograph than these ancient dunes . The entire country is immaculate like it was perfectly manicured without a rock out of place . Thanks for these videos. 🙏🏻

    "I don't need to point out the emergency exits. They are, really, all around you..." Reminds me of a Kalula flight attendant's pre-flight safety announcement: ""There may be 50 ways to leave your lover, but there are only 4 ways out of this airplane." What a wonderful video, Doctor. Thank you!

    A video with a beautiful composition of colors and contrasts. An incredibly spectacular view and nature that takes your breath away. And I would probably think that you will feel very blessed and grateful when you get to experience such magnificent nature from the heights. In the most beautiful golden colors, which contrasted with a beautiful blue sky. This helped to create a beautiful harmony in each individual image in the video. Where you are enchanted by your senses, and you can dream away from your daily routines. Lovely finish with breakfast. This was definitely a wonderful trip. I liked that you filmed some of the logistics behind such a trip as well. Beautiful video. Just absolutely perfect !!
