We listen to your expectations.
We share our passion and knowledge of Africa.
We create your bespoke AirSperience safaris.
Soar above beaten trails and beyond expectations with your bespoke flying safari. Roam freely the African skies onboard your personal aircraft while embracing endless sceneries from above, reaching out to remote and exclusive corners of the African wilderness, from which you will never properly disconnect. Let your personal air travel enhance your ground experience, not replace it. Let our experienced and passionate pilot-guides be your discrete host throughout the safari, steering and shaping your journey around your passions.
Passion, flexibility, understanding are our trade marks from planning board to execution. Our concept is simple: one aircraft and one experienced pilot-guide exclusively dedicated to you throughout your safari. Leave the dust, bumps, long ground transfers and air connections to the others, while you simply focus on the stunning beauty of Africa. Add a third dimension to your experience in Africa, appropriate its sceneries and come to understand its genesis in a way very few people can.
AIRSPERIENCE SAFARI
Our experience for your personalised experience.
It all starts back home, on the draw board, when together with our pilot-guides you sketch the ideal itinerary, choosing those destinations, lodges and camps which better satisfy your expectations. All our pilots have built a deep knowledge of the most scenic routes. They found some off the beaten path places few others could ever see from the air and on the ground. They stayed in most of the lodges and camps as guests identifying their pros and cons. Thus take advantage of thier knowledge to create your personal experience.
Once on tour, the tailor-made experience will continue, so feel free to ask the pilot to lift the wing or turn left to position yourself with the best light and view for the perfect picture worth the travel. Discuss with him the altitude, higher if not feeling too good, or lower to better frame the details, like a remote fishing village, or a pod of hippos or elephants crossing a river.
Over two decades of flying safaris have given us some hints to build in a little plus which we hope will make your experience even more special. Onboard we have installed a simple yet effective audio system which will allow you to listen to your favourite music by plugging in your smartphone. Imagine flying over the dunes of the Namib desert listening to your preferred Chopin’s Sonata, or rock music, capturing those memories forever! Also we have decided to limit the passengers to 9, instead of 13 (except if specifically requested by you) allowing everybody to have a window seat, and a roomy space in the cabin. We carry onboard a large cooler box to offer you fresh drinks during the flights.
Why soaring with us
- All our tours are based on a dedicated aircraft and a professional pilot-guide. The obvious advantage is that our plane remains with you all the time and our schedule is set so as to give you the best experience, not to match plane timetables or the operator & camp needs. If the pilot is with you on safari, you will never be rushed away from a kill sighting, the plane can wait! The utmost flexibility is guaranteed: it is you creating the pace and the rhythm of your own AirSperience safari!
- A Soaring Safari flight is not just a “fast” transfer from A to B but rather an unforgettable experience with each air route studied in detail. With us it is quite the norm to fly longer “off route” to reach that unique area, to enjoy incredible aerial views, to glide low for “spying” on wildlife or to check out that remote tribal dwelling.
- Tours combining several countries are our speciality, we are the only pilots with deep knowledge and experience of multiple African countries, up above and down below!
- Soaring Safaris pilots are all “senior”: they have been guiding flying safaris all over Africa for minimum ten years and have logged thousands of flying hours. Once on the ground they will be your constant reference when moving through the various lodges, to make sure your needs and desires are met.
- Our aim is to satisfy and exceed your expectations. Being an independent operator, not related to any lodge or camp collection, the only guiding principle when designing your AirSperience is what is best for you.
- All arrangements are specially matched to our clients’ requirements: the expression “tailor made” with Soaring Safaris acquires its full meaning, from the planning stages to the actual execution.
