Why This Route

From beach sands to big-game country, in under two hours

Two days is plenty of time to catch all the big game at the iconic Masai Mara National Reserve, if you go by plane - that's how we've designed this exciting air safari from the beach.

We'll pick you up from your resort and minutes later you'll be viewing Africa from the air - the Great Rift Valley and towering Mt. Kilimanjaro - before touching down at an airstrip in a land of lions, leopards, cheetahs and elephants.
