ABOUT THIS SAFARI
About This Luxury Flying Safari
A luxury flying safari swaps long road transfers for short scheduled flights, so each day starts and ends in the wild. You fly from Wilson Airport to Amboseli for two nights beneath Kilimanjaro, then north to Loisaba, a private conservancy in Laikipia, and finally to the Masai Mara for three nights.
Loisaba is the part most people remember. As a private conservancy it allows what the national parks do not: walking safaris with Samburu guides, night drives, camel and horseback outings, and nights under the stars on the famous star beds. In the Mara, time is spent in the open plains with bush breakfasts and sundowners arranged by your camp.
Every lodge on this route is a five star tented camp or lodge with a small number of rooms. Flights, full board and most activities are included, so once you land in Nairobi there is very little left to think about.
