Suguta Valley & the Jade Sea 9 Days
(Kenya)
Laikipia, Lake Turkana, and the Matthews Mountains

Price indication (from) US$1,676 per person per day

*All inclusive price based upon 4 guests travelling in mid-season on a tailor-made departure basis

Explore the last frontier of untouched wilderness in Kenya, a truly extraordinary landscape of alkaline lakes with flamingo, active volcanoes, deserts and mega calderas surrounded by jade-green waters. Sensationally labelled ‘the valley of death’, due to the stark and barren landscape that stretches horizon to horizon. Well protected due to inaccessibility from the ground, scenic flying is the most practical way to experience the majesty of Cathedral Rock, the flamingo flocks of Lake Logipi, and the beautiful sand dunes and peculiar mushroom rocks of the Suguta Desert.

Relax at Ol Malo

This was the best experience trip we ever had. The Air Safari was fantastic. Chief Pilot Murtaza Walijee made the experience so welcoming it was like we were VIP's all the way. I recommend it and one has to experience it once in a lifetime."
