Victoria Falls, Chitabe & Mokete
July 2026
From the Zambezi to Botswana’s Wild Heart.
Some journeys remind us exactly why we love flying safaris. This adventure hosted four guests from America and connected three very different wilderness experiences: the spectacle of Victoria Falls, the wildlife-rich landscapes of Chitabe in Botswana’s Okavango Delta, and the wonderfully remote Mokete in the Mababe wilderness.
Travelling with our own aircraft gave us the freedom to connect these remarkable places seamlessly, while the views from above became part of the adventure itself — from the Zambezi and Victoria Falls to the waterways and floodplains of northern Botswana. On the ground, Chitabe offered the classic richness of the Okavango ecosystem, before Mokete introduced us to something quite different: immense open plains, abundant wildlife and a feeling of being very far from anywhere. Wilderness describes Mokete as lying where the lush reaches of the Okavango give way to the drier Mababe landscape, with few tracks and wildlife following its own rhythm.
It was a journey filled with exceptional wildlife, wonderful birding, spectacular landscapes and memorable moments shared around the campfire — but also those quieter moments between destinations, looking down from the aircraft at an Africa that seems almost without end. Exactly the kind of flying memory we love creating.
Cintsa (Wild Coast), Kwandwe & the Great Karoo
Dec 2025
We had the privilege of hosting a flying safari with a father and son to explore some new corners (for them) of Southern Africa.
Previous visitors to South Africa, we gave them the opportunity to explore their passion of wildlife and also photography and taught them to appreciate the landscapes from a new perspective – low level flying in a small airplane. We explored some of the Eastern Cape’s wonderfully contrasting landscapes and biomes with plenty of time along the way to appreciate the beauty of each area.
Our journey took us first to Cintsa and the beautiful Wild Coast, before flying on to Kwandwe Private Game Reserve, where the Great Fish River winds through a vast protected wilderness, and finally inland to Samara Karoo Reserve and the extraordinary open spaces of the Great Karoo. Kwandwe protects some 30,000 hectares of Eastern Cape wilderness, while Samara’s restored landscape encompasses a remarkable mix of Karoo, grassland and thicket habitats.
From stunning rugged coastlines and sweeping beaches to wildlife, mountains and the immense Karoo horizons, every leg brought a completely different photographic canvas. And, as so often happens on a flying safari, some of the best views were from the aircraft itself — watching the landscapes change beneath us and having the freedom to experience South Africa at our own pace.

Flying Safari: Africa's Wild Waterways
Oct 2023
In early October, we returned from a highly successful flying safari with our friends. Our purpose was to scout out a new itinerary for a future trip—an expedition designed to explore and connect some of Africa's untamed waterways through an exhilarating flying safari across borders. Our journey took us along the mighty Zambezi River in Zimbabwe, the breathtaking Chobe River in Botswana, the tranquil Kwando River in Namibia, and the renowned Okavango River and Delta, once again returning to Botswana.
Throughout our adventure, we were treated to incredible wildlife sightings, witnessed awe-inspiring sunsets, and, of course, experienced thrilling low-level scenic flights. It was an absolutely amazing adventure!
Desert, Space and Stars: Tankwa Fly-in and Camp Experience
Nov 2023
We escaped to the Tankwa Karoo for an overnight fly-in and desert camp, immersing ourselves in its unmatched beauty. Our private camp in the heart of this majestic desert provided the ultimate retreat, where silence and peace prevailed. The awe-inspiring sunsets, vast open spaces, and a breathtaking blanket of stars allowed us to truly connect with the surrounding space.
