You will be left awestruck as your helicopter pilot points out all the iconic features on this scenic flight.

Game viewing while traversing over the terrain offers you rare photo opportunities. Look out for huge pods of hippos and herds of buffalo wallowing up to their necks in the water amongst the papyrus and water lilies with prolific birdlife in tow.

NANYUKI SCENIC ROUTE

Depart from Wilson and head up towards the Rift Valley, over the Longonot Crater and Lake Naivasha before crossing the saddle of the Aberdares – an older volcanic mountain range. Its unusual vegetation, rugged terrain, deep ravines cutting through its forested eastern and western slopes, clear water streams and waterfalls all combine to create an area of lush scenic beauty. The Aberdares is blessed with magnificent waterfalls, including the Karuru Falls which drop 272 metres and the Gura Falls which drop 305 metres. Fly towards Solio and take in magical sights of Mt. Kenya.

SUGUTA VALLEY HELICOPTER TOURS 

Suguta Valley Photography Safaris – Helicopter Safaris: The Suguta Valley Chopper Day trip takes guests across to the edge of the Rift Valley via magnificent sheer cliffs and waterfalls. Guests will fly around an extremely high rocky outcrop called Naturuk with fantastic bird life living on the cliffs then down through the Painted Valley and the Hudu Valley for a bite to eat and a coffee. Onto the Southern end of Turkana for some awesome Crocodile sightings and then land up on the Nabiyotum Crater.

From Turkana guests fly across to Lake Logipi to see the Flamingos, and Golden Jackals, and land on the lakebed flats. They then fly low and slow up the Suguta Valley to the sand dunes where the helicopter lands so guests can enjoy the dunes and swim if there has been some rain and water filled up in parts of the dunes. The helicopter tour continues flying up the Suguta Valley to the crystal-clear fish pools for a swim, and lunch and the fish throw in a pedicure for free. After lunch they fly across to Silali (another soda lake) for some more Flamingo flying before nipping up the edge of the Rift, onto the Mbata Plains, and along the Karisia Range on the back to the camp or lodge. It’s one of the most spectacular days in parts of Kenya that most Kenyans and tourists have never been to before. The Suguta Valley Safari plus one night overnight is essentially the Suguta day split overnight. Instead of doing it all in one day, we fly the guests across to Turkana’s South Island (completely exclusive), where there is a rustic camp set up (which is always subject to availability). We spent the late afternoon heading out on the boat fishing for Nile Perch, Tiger Fish, and Tilapia. There are some very cool Crocodile sightings, and the day concludes with a sundowner. The overnight in Turkana gives guests more time to fly across different areas at a leisurely pace. Suguta plus two nights is similar again but with more time down in Turkana, guests can fly around various parts of the lake and other interesting places that you wouldn’t do on the one-night or Suguta Day trip. As well as lots more fishing and fun activities.
