Why should I choose a fly-in trip?
A safari in Africa is the adventure of a lifetime, but it’s also a journey that can involve long hours on the road, moving in dusty, bumpy tracks between national parks. For many travelers, especially those with limited time or who prefer a more comfortable and then exclusive experience, a fly-in safari is the perfect solution. This style of trip involves using a small, light aircraft to fly between safari camps and then lodges, replacing length road transfers with short, scenic flights. While a fly-in safari comes at a high price point, the benefits it offers in terms of time, comfort and a unique perspective are well worth the investment.
