Marrakech By Air publishes its civil aviation licence and its air operator certificate on its own website. Its main listing is called “Balloon Activity”, and the flight is one option on it. The same booking page also sells a ticket to watch the balloons from the ground, so pick the flight option when you book.

Three ways to fly with Marrakech By Air

  • Standard flight

    The option compared here is “Marrakech: Balloon Flight, Berber Breakfast & Certificate”, with a small breakfast at the launch site and a Berber breakfast in a tent after landing.

  • With a camel ride

    A separate listing adds a camel ride in the Palmeraie on the way back. On the plain flight the camel ride is listed as not included.

  • Comfort flight

    An option on the main listing at a higher price. Marrakech By Air describes the comfort format as a basket split into four compartments of three to five passengers.

About this flight

This is the Marrakech By Air morning with a camel ride added, in the Palmeraie on the way back into town. Before the flight there is a small breakfast at the launch site; after landing, a Berber breakfast in a tent.

Unlike the operator's plain flight, this listing has the camel ride on its included list; a guide is not included. The listing does not say how long the camel ride lasts. Reviews describe it as short, so treat it as an extra rather than the main event. The weight rule matches the operator's other flight: 110 kg, heavier guests ask first.

What’s included

  • Hotel pickup and drop-off
  • Small breakfast before the flight
  • Hot air balloon flight
  • Berber breakfast in a tent
  • Flight certificate
  • Insurance
  • Camel ride

Not included

  • Guide

Pickup and meeting point

Early pickup from your hotel in Marrakech; the confirmed time follows after booking.

Know before you go

  • Maximum weight 110 kg; heavier guests contact the operator before booking (extra fee possible)

Not suitable for

  • Children under 3
  • People with heart problems

Taken from the operator’s product page on the booking platform.

Options on the booking pages

The main listing carries three options: “Only Hot Air Balloon Views - No Flight”, the standard flight and “Comfort Flight”. The camel listing has its own viewing ticket, the flight with the camel ride and a flight without the camel ride. The viewing tickets set the low starting prices on both pages; the prices on this site belong to the flight options.

What both listings include

Hotel pickup and drop-off, a small breakfast before take-off, the flight, a Berber breakfast in a tent, a flight certificate and insurance. A guide is listed as not included on both. The listings give no length for the flight and no launch time; the confirmed pickup time follows after booking.

Sunrise and launch waves

Neither listing promises the first launch of the morning. Some guests on the main listing hoped for a sunrise flight and took off after the sun was up; one of their reviews is below. If the sunrise from the air matters most to you, compare the listings that sell the first wave as an option before you book.

Limits

The weight limit is 110 kg per passenger on both listings; heavier guests contact the operator before booking, and an extra fee is possible. Children under three are listed as not suitable, and the plain flight also excludes children under 90 cm. People with heart problems are listed as not suitable.

Passengers on Marrakech By Air

Many reviews name and praise the pilots, Reda and Vu among them, and the way the staff explain each step. One guest took off after sunrise, which is why the launch wave is worth checking.
