Tropic Air

Only by flying low across this physically diverse wilderness can one truly appreciate the scale of Kenya's beauty and solitude. The most simple and unforgettable way to travel between safari lodges in Kenya is by air, with Tropic Air's knowledgeable pilots and well-maintained aircraft.
Tropic Air was started by Jamie Roberts in the mid 1990's and is now a well-established charter company operating between lodges and camps within eastern, central and southern Africa. Tropic Air offers adventure travel in either fixed-wing aircraft or helicopter, giving you a bird's eye view of a scenically spectacular continent.
Enjoy an early morning flight into the northern deserts and up to Lake Turkana or visit the seldom explored forests of the Mathews Range. Go for a breath-taking flight around the 17,000ft peaks of Mt. Kenya, stopping off to cast for a rainbow trout in one of the glacier lakes. Tropic Air can fly you into the depths of the Ethiopian mountains, to the deserts of Namibia or the gorillas in Uganda.
On a more personal level, Jamie can take 2 passengers on an exhilarating flight in the Waco, a bi-plane reminiscent of Denys Finch-Hatton's early flying experiences in 'Out of Africa'.
