5.00The pick up from our camp was arranged, so the balloon tour started with some fun professional driving over the dunes, nice addition. The flight itself was amazing! Javier took us over (I think) 7 dunes in total in an effortless and calm flight. We had ample time to look at our surroundings, photo's were made and there was also the option of a video of your experience for a reasonable price (we did this and it was definitely worth it). We were flying with two balloons at the same time, which made for an extra cool view. Be prepared for the standing arrangements, 3 persons fit together in a standing cube and there are 4 standing cubes. So pay attention when choosing your place and enter first, then you'll be assured of a place together in the cube :)
Balloon flight through the desert

5.00My son and I took a flight through the desert. It was wonderful. We were lucky enough to fly with a Spanish pilot named Jorge and he made us a fantastic flight. He took pictures in flight and after the flight sold us a video for 15 real, about 35 euros, including photos and edited video that they record with a 360° camera is worth the recording, a nice memory forever. Really worth the experience. The helpers are from Kenya and at the end of the flight they sing and dance to a song that my son loved
À beautiful morning above desert

4.00It was on a early dark morning, but a really great experience. We felt safe as Javier was a good pilot. It was wonderful to see the sun coming above the dunes. We recommend it as a unic experience
Dawn rising over the sands: A flight I’ll never forget

5.00With the Oman Nomads trip from Travelbase, we booked a hot-air balloon flight over the Wahiba Sands. It was my first time drifting through the sky, and the experience was nothing short of breathtaking. Our pilot, Matteo, was calm and reassuring, instantly putting everyone at ease. We lifted off just before sunrise—into a silence so vast and a beauty so pure that words barely stand a chance.
Unforgettable experience
