Fly-In Safaris

Kenya & Tanzania · less time on the road, more time in the wild

Why fly in

Fly In, Step Out Into the Wild

A fly-in safari swaps the long road journey for a short, scenic flight in a light aircraft, landing on a bush airstrip where your private guide is waiting.

Departure: Nairobi, Diani, ZanzibarLight-aircraft flight

More Time on Safari

A short flight instead of a long day on the road means more hours for game drives.

Game Drives on Arrival

Your private guide meets you at the airstrip, so the safari starts as soon as you land.

Views From Above

Look down on the Great Rift Valley, rivers and endless plains on your way in.

Straight From the Beach

Fly directly from Diani to the Masai Mara, or from Zanzibar to the Serengeti.

Perfect for Short Trips

Even two or three days are enough for a real safari when you fly in.

Comfortable for Everyone

Ideal for families, honeymooners and anyone who prefers to skip bumpy roads.

By road

A long day’s drive on rough roads before the safari can begin.

VS
By air

A short, scenic flight and your first game drive the same day.

Good to know: light aircraft have strict luggage limits, usually soft bags only. We’ll send you the details when you book.

The safari with Daydream Safaris was truly perfect! From the planning and the choice of accommodations to the drives between the national parks, it was wonderful in every way.
Kennedy really thought of everything and put together a great package with Daydream Safaris.
Our guide, Jackson, was friendly, funny, and had eagle eyes—no animal escaped his notice. We got to see all kinds of animals, from elephants and rhinos to predators. And all up close!
For another trip to Kenya or another safari, I highly recommend Kennedy and especially Jackson, because they gave my friends and me an unforgettable trip! Thank you so much!

We had an amazing 10-day safari with Day Dream Safari. Our guide, Jackson, was incredibly friendly, enthusiastic, and always determined to find the best wildlife sightings while making sure we had a great time throughout the trip.

The accommodations and food exceeded our expectations, and everything was well organized from start to finish. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Highly recommend Day Dream Safari to anyone planning a trip to the Masai Mara.

Three parks, one unforgettable journey. At Amboseli, herds of elephants strolled across the dust with Mount Kilimanjaro rising behind them, a scene so perfect I kept thinking someone had painted it. At Lake Nakuru, the shoreline blushed pink with flamingos, and we spotted rhinos grazing nearby. Then came the Masai Mara, where the plains seemed to go on forever and every drive felt like a nature documentary, with lions on the hunt, cheetahs on the prowl.

But what made this trip truly special was our guide- Mr Jackson, a truly living legend. He had a sharp eye for spotting animals, endless stories about the wildlife and the land, and a way of finding the perfect spot at the perfect moment. His patience, humour and passion turned good sightings into moments I'll be retelling for years. We never felt rushed, and we always felt very looked after.

Although the journey just flew by, and I came home with thousands of photos, dusty boots and a heart full of gratitude. Amazing doesn't cover it. If Kenya is on your list, don't wait. Go, and go with this team. I am already planning to rebook again soon.

From the group, thank you Daydream and the team for the memorable trip. See you again soon.
