About African Flying Adventures

WHO ARE WE

Africa is a large continent. Air transportation is the best way to travel the long distances to get you from one safari lodge to the next. The best lodges are often located remotely and have their own airfield. African Flying Adventures is a South African Tour Operator specialized in Air Safaris, self-fly and fly-along safaris (where you fly along as passenger) bridging primarily the long distances between safari camps and points of interest in the Southern African region.

Besides our group tours, we also work with clients to create private safari trips with or without a private safari guide coming along. You can join one of our safari adventures as a pilot or as a passenger with no piloting skills. Not all our tours and activities are done by air transportation: photography tours, as well as walking safaris, are both activities we offer with no self-fly component involved. We are passionate about Africa and believe that visiting Africa is often a life-changing experience.

For pilots

For pilots with an EASA or FAA pilot license, we provide all the support you need in converting your license into a South African validated PPL license. We can also assist you in finding and renting a good quality and well-maintained aircraft in South Africa.

For passengers

If you are not a pilot and would like to experience the vast African continent by air, you can join one of our Air Safari Adventures as a passenger. Fly along in the hired aircraft of a friendly participating pilot. Or make use of the seats available in the aircraft of a commercial pilot who flies along on many of our group tours. An Air Safari Tour takes you places where you can’t easily go by road.

Every single one of our Self-fly Safari Adventures starts in either Johannesburg or Cape Town. Our travels take us through countries such as South Africa, Swaziland, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Namibia, and Mozambique.
