1 Day Nakuru Helicopter Scenic Flight Safari is an exclusive air safari over Lake Nakuru by Helicopter. Lake Nakuru is one of the Rift Valley soda lakes at an elevation of 1754 m above sea level.

1 Day Nakuru Helicopter Scenic Flight Safari is tailored to cover the dramatic beauty of Lake Nakuru National Park, its wildlife, Mount Suswa, and Mount Longonot. Flying at low altitude lets you film and sightsee all the geographical features from Nairobi to Lake Nakuru National Park.

You will get a glimpse of the wild animals, birds, and Lake Nakuru on this scenic safari. It lies to the south of Nakuru in Kenya’s Rift Valley and is protected by Lake Nakuru National Park.

The lake’s abundance of algae attracts the vast quantity of flamingos that famously line the shore. Other birds also flourish in the area, as do warthogs, baboons, and other large mammals. Black and white rhinos have also been introduced.

There are Rothschild’s giraffe, Waterbuck lion, cheetah, and leopard. The park also has large pythons that inhabit the dense woodlands, and can often be seen crossing the roads or dangling from trees. 1 Day Nakuru Helicopter Scenic Flight Safari departs from Wilson and flies into the Great Rift Valley towards Lake Naivasha, en route to the Suswa Crater and Longonot Mountain.

Game viewing while traversing over the terrain offers you rare photo opportunities. Look out for huge pods of hippos and herds of buffalo wallowing up to their necks in the water amongst the papyrus and water lilies with prolific birdlife in tow.

Close to Nakuru, Kenya’s fourth-largest town, the park is surrounded by fascinating volcanic scenery.

To the North, there is the Menengai crater, one of the largest calderas in the world and the largest in Kenya, North-East by the Bahati hills, East by the Lion hill, South by the Eburu crater, and West by the Mau escarpment.
