Introducing Skytrek

Aviation, experienced slowly.

Skytrek is a hot air ballooning company, the most serene way to see a landscape from above, experienced slowly and in the company of people you choose.

In October 2026, in collaboration with the National Space Research and Development Agency (NASRDA), we flew the first hot air balloon in Nigerian skies over Abuja.

Our approach is simple: careful planning, disciplined safety and a calm, personal level of service from first enquiry to landing.

Our approach to safety

Calm in the air begins with discipline on the ground.

Fully insured. Every Skytrek flight carries full insurance cover, arranged and maintained to the same standard as the flight itself.

How we approach safety

Safety first

Every flight decision begins with safety. If conditions are not right, we do not fly.

Weather discipline

Flights are planned around careful weather assessment, not schedules.

Personal attention

Each experience is arranged directly with our team, never through an automated booking.

Considered journeys

Locations and timings are chosen for the light, the landscape and the experience.
