3 Best Helicopter Safaris to Take in Africa, According to a Top Travel Advisor
"A full-day helicopter trip into Kenya’s Big North traverses striking, varied landscapes: the rolling hills of Laikipia (on the equator) give way to the desolate sand dunes of the Suguta Valley, then to lakes flooded with flamingos. Pilots seek ideal touch-downs to meet remote tribes, walk on dunes, or swim in clear waters, and guests often stop for lunch alongside a collapsed volcano on the lake's southern end. The return flight soars over the Matthews mountain range — described as a remote, inaccessible landmark filled with dramatic cliffs, cycad forests, and flowing rivers — and the overall experience is framed as the chance to encounter something entirely raw, unfiltered, and removed from the outside world." - Shaun Stanley
