Flying Safaris

Out of Africa
Flying safaris are a superb way to combine different game parks without losing too much time travelling.
They are flexible itineraries which allow you to depart on any day of the week, choose your destinations and
favourite accommodation and stay for as long as you wish.
This flying safari offers an incredible journey incorporating the more remote parts of Samburu and the
world-famous plains of the Masai Mara. The six-night itinerary begins in Samburu National Reserve, home to
some of the most unique wildlife in Kenya and a host of birds. The Masai Mara offers plenty of
opportunities to spot plains game and the ‘big five’.
