Planning your own helicopter safari is quite unlike any vacation you've ever experienced. Most holidays include a fair amount of travelling from one destination to another and while much of the driving or flying involves sightseeing, it usually also includes hours of uneventful activity - and is limited by the horizon.

A helicopter safari is almost incapable of description for while the excitement of being at a destination is still ever-present, it is the minute-by-minute experience of the helicopter that quickens the pace, yet allows you to see and take in all along the way. From altitude, the limitations of a horizon diminish and the visual beauty of the landscape unfolds literally before your eyes.

There is no other mode of transportation that can transport you "as the crow flies" at an altitude that allows you to see everything of interest below as seldom seen before. Nor can any other mode take the time to land and allow you to smell the flowers or touch the soil. Time saved is spent meaningfully and in this way, your whole safari travel time included becomes part of the adventure.

Follow the instructions above if you wish to be tantalised further. Please note that the video clip does take in the region of five minutes to download - and that it only offers a glimpse of what the same five minutes will mean to you when seated in that cockpit.
