Fly in with a light aircraft flight

Africa is a sprawling, untamed expanse featuring some of the most isolated areas on the globe. As the second largest continent, it surpasses the combined sizes of the United States, Brazil, and China. Savannas, or grasslands, dominate nearly 65% of the terrain, making it a challenge (and at times, a lengthy process) to reach certain remote locales.

Fortunately, there exist select camps that provide fly-in safaris – a thrilling and efficient way to venture into less-travelled parts of Africa that we consider to be hidden-gems. A fly-in safari utilizes a light aircraft flight or helicopter to ferry you between sites, conserving your time and presenting you with breathtaking views of the most pristine wilderness on Earth.

Fly-in Safari trips that use light-aircraft flights let you visit different countries and travel long distances for a truly thorough adventure. Also, flying lets you see places far away that you couldn’t get to in a 4×4 game vehicle.
