About This Tour

Looking for a quick but unforgettable safari? This 4 Days Kenya Flying Safari is the perfect way to explore two of Kenya’s top wildlife destinations — Maasai Mara and Samburu— without long road trips. Using small aircraft, you will fly straight into the wild from Nairobi and enjoy more time on game drives, spotting animals and relaxing in top-class lodges.

This is one of the best fly in safaris in Kenya, designed for people who want luxury, comfort, and adventure all in one. Our Kenya flying safari packages allow you to land directly inside the parks, where expert guides and warm hospitality await.

Your journey begins with a flight to Maasai Mara National Reserve. This is where you can see the Big Five — lion, elephant, rhino, buffalo, and leopard — plus thousands of other animals like zebras, gazelles, cheetahs, and hyenas. If you travel between July and October, you may also catch the Great Wildebeest Migration, one of the most spectacular wildlife events in the world.

After exploring Maasai Mara, you will board another flight heading south to the unique Samburu National Reserve, a rugged, semi-arid region in northern Kenya. Samburu is home to unique animals that you won’t easily find elsewhere in Kenya. Look out for the “Samburu Special Five” — Grevy’s zebra, gerenuk, Beisa oryx, Somali ostrich, and reticulated giraffe. You’ll also see elephants, lions, leopards, and crocodiles along the Ewaso Nyiro River.

Throughout your Kenya safari, you will stay in luxury lodges and camps that offer excellent food, beautiful views, and top-level service. The experience is personal, peaceful, and perfect for couples, families, or even solo travelers who want to enjoy nature in style.

This Kenya air safari is all about saving time and getting straight to the action. No long drives, no stress — just beautiful views from the sky and plenty of time to relax and enjoy wildlife.

Whether you are looking for a romantic escape, a family holiday, or simply want to treat yourself to something special, this is one of the best Kenya safaris from Nairobi. Book now and experience a fly-in safari Kenya style — fast, easy, and full of unforgettable moments.
