With our fleet of Cessna aircraft, Tropic Air offers private flights and air charters throughout Kenya, and beyond into neighbouring countries. Flying is the perfect way to optimise safari time, without being limited by distances and poor roads. Our experienced pilots, with good natural history knowledge, ensure that the journey is part of the unique safari experience.

One can only truly appreciate the vastness and beauty of Kenya from the air

Tropic Air flies to all corners of Kenya, using remote bush and private strips, and linking the best tourism destinations. Although most of our flying is tourism based, we also regularly carry out wildlife translocations, geo-survey tasks, cargo-flights, aerial photography and medical evacuations.
