It's priced well above every other product on this site, which is fair given you're really booking two separate adventure activities plus a dinner, not one tour with an add-on. It's not for travelers short on time or nervous about a second flight in one day. This is the only product on this site that pairs a **Marrakech hot air balloon flight** with a second aerial activity: tandem paragliding at sunset, plus a Moroccan dinner to close out a full day that starts before dawn and ends after dark. ## What Makes This Balloon and Paragliding Day Different Every other combo on this site adds a ground-based activity, a camel ride, a quad bike ride, a pool afternoon, after the balloon flight. This one adds a second flight instead: tandem paragliding at sunset, a faster and more physical experience than the balloon's slow drift, giving you two genuinely different ways to be airborne over Marrakech in a single day. ## What Should You Expect on the Day? The day has two distinct halves with free time in between. The morning follows the standard sunrise balloon pattern: early pickup, flight, breakfast, return transfer. Then you have the rest of the morning and early afternoon to yourselves before a second pickup for the paragliding flight, timed for sunset light, followed by dinner. ## Is the Balloon and Paragliding Combo Worth the Price? At roughly double the cost of most other combos on this site, it's a genuine splurge, but it's really two premium activities plus dinner bundled into one booking rather than one tour with a minor add-on. If you were going to book tandem paragliding separately anyway, combining it with the balloon flight here is efficient and gives the day real structure. ## Who Should Book This Full-Day Adventure? Thrill-seekers who want more than one aerial activity in a trip, couples celebrating a special occasion who want a genuinely memorable full day, and travelers with a flexible schedule who don't mind an early start and a late finish on the same day. ## What's Included in the Price? Hotel pickup and drop-off for both activities, transportation throughout, the sunrise balloon flight with a professional pilot, a traditional Moroccan breakfast, the evening transfer, a tandem paragliding flight with a professional pilot including safety briefing and equipment, and a traditional Moroccan dinner with tea and refreshments. Lunch and drinks during the free time in between are not included. ## Getting to the Balloon and Paragliding Sites Both activities are reached by included transfer, with a driver collecting you twice, once before dawn and again in the late afternoon, so you don't need to arrange anything yourself between the two flights. ## Insider Tips for This Full-Day Adventure Plan a genuinely restful gap between the two activities rather than filling it with sightseeing; you're flying twice in one day and will appreciate the downtime. Wear layers for the cool morning balloon launch and closed, sturdy shoes for the paragliding takeoff and landing run later in the day. Both flights depend on weather, so keep the rest of your trip flexible in case either segment needs to shift. ## How Does This Compare to Other Marrakech Balloon Tours? For a calmer, single-flight morning at a fraction of the price, the [classic sunrise flight](https://marrakechhot-airballoon.com/tours/marrakech-sunrise-hot-air-balloon-flight/) is the simpler choice. Travelers who want the intimacy of a balloon flight without a second, more physical activity should look at the [private balloon flight](https://marrakechhot-airballoon.com/tours/marrakech-private-hot-air-balloon-flight/) instead. ## What's included - ✓ Hotel pickup and drop-off - ✓ Transportation in a comfortable vehicle - ✓ Sunrise hot air balloon flight with a professional pilot - ✓ Traditional Moroccan breakfast - ✓ Evening transfer to the paragliding location - ✓ Tandem paragliding flight with safety briefing and equipment - ✓ Traditional Moroccan dinner with tea and refreshments - ✗ Lunch and drinks during the free time - ✗ Photos or videos of the flights - ✗ Tips for the driver, pilots or staff - ✗ Travel insurance ## Route and itinerary 1. **Sunrise hotel pickup for the balloon flight**: A driver collects you from your hotel before dawn for the transfer to the balloon launch site, starting the day with the calmer of the two flights on the schedule. 2. **Balloon flight over the Moroccan landscape**: You take off at sunrise for a peaceful flight over mountains, valleys, villages and countryside, taking in views the paragliding flight later won't offer, since that happens at ground-rushing speed rather than a slow drift. 3. **Breakfast and return transfer**: After landing, breakfast is served before the vehicle brings you back to your hotel, leaving the rest of the morning and early afternoon free before the day's second activity. 4. **Free time to relax in Marrakech**: With no scheduled activity until late afternoon, you can rest at your hotel, explore the city at your own pace, or simply recover from the early start before the paragliding pickup. 5. **Afternoon pickup for paragliding**: A driver returns to collect you in the late afternoon and takes you to the paragliding launch site, timed so your flight coincides with sunset light over the mountains. 6. **Tandem paragliding flight at sunset**: After a safety briefing, you take off tandem with an experienced pilot for a flight over the landscape as the sun sets, a faster, more physical experience than the morning's balloon ride. 7. **Moroccan dinner and return to your hotel**: The day closes with a traditional Moroccan dinner in a scenic setting before the drive back to your hotel, rounding out a full day that opened with sunrise and ends after sunset. ## FAQs ### Do I need experience for the paragliding flight? No, it's a tandem flight with a professional pilot handling the controls, so no prior paragliding experience is needed. ### How much free time is there between the two activities? Roughly the middle of the day, from after the morning balloon flight and breakfast until the late-afternoon paragliding pickup, giving you time to rest or explore Marrakech on your own. ### What if one of the two flights gets cancelled for weather? Both activities depend on weather conditions for safety. If either is cancelled, you'll be offered rescheduling options or a refund for the affected portion, depending on the circumstances. ### Is dinner included, or just the two flights? A traditional Moroccan dinner is included after the paragliding flight, along with breakfast earlier in the day; only lunch during the free time is on you. ### Is this suitable for a first-time paraglider? Yes, the tandem format is designed for complete beginners, with an experienced pilot controlling the flight throughout. ### Is this a long day? Yes, it runs from before sunrise until after sunset with a rest period in the middle, so it suits travelers happy to give up a full day for two back-to-back adventure activities.
