A Samburu flying safari, commonly known as air safaris in Kenya are a fantastic alternative if you’ have a short travel time or want to tour Kenya in the easiest way, using light aircrafts to make travel easy. There's a network of airstrips across in Kenya so most national parks and lodge accommodation can be reached. Spend two or three nights in each location - a superb way to take in the region's wildlife, in style.

A flying safari in Kenya will often center on one or two areas, flying by light aircraft between holiday destinations to make the most of your time. After an early start each day, spend a few hours on a safari game drive in the local area viewing the wildlife. Return to your safari lodge for some well earned relaxation, followed by a second game drive later in the day.
There's an excellent range of accommodation available in the main locations throughout Kenya, from hotel-style lodges to small, exclusive retreats, mobile camps, permanent safari camp, lodge safaris. Samburu Flying safaris offer more flexibility than road safaris, so if you don't see the lodge or camp you're after here, just ask! Any safari can be extended to the beaches of Mombassa, or Zanzibar, Malindi, Lamu Island. 

Our Kenya flying safaris start with a flight from London to Nairobi, with regional connections in the UK also possible. At the end of your safari, it's a short flight to Mombassa, or onwards to Zanzibar or the Indian Ocean islands - or back to the UK!
Air safaris allow you more flexibility to experience different holiday destinations over a short period of time and the “bird’s eye view” from the plane as you gaze over Africa’s magnificent scenery can be simply stunning, making the flying safari the ultimate African Safari option.
