You will be able to see the entire park clearly from the air while in the hot air balloon, and in the northern portion of the park, you may even get close to lions and other wildlife. Even the nocturnal mammals that are hidden will be seen thanks to this hot air balloon as they emerge from their caverns in the morning.
