About Safarilink Aviation

Safarilink Aviation: Bridging Kenya’s Safari Heartland Founded in January 2004 by experienced aviation professionals, Safarilink Aviation quickly established itself as Kenya’s premier safari airline, specializing in connecting tourists and locals to iconic destinations like the Maasai Mara, Diani, and Tsavo. Thriving Safari Connections Safarilink operates daily scheduled flights to over 20 airstrips within Kenya and parts of northern Tanzania—including Buffalo Springs, Amboseli, and Zanzibar access. With services departing from Nairobi Wilson Airport, they offer seamless connectivity between major hubs and remote bush airstrips. Fleet Built for Adventure The airline maintains a nimble fleet of turboprops—from Cessna Grand Caravans (13 seats) to Dash‑8s (up to 50 seats)—designed for short takeoff/landings on dirt airstrips. This flexibility accommodates both solo adventurers and group charters accessing off‑grid lodges. First African Carrier with IATA ISSA In May 2019, Safarilink achieved a milestone: becoming the first airline in Africa and the Middle East to earn the IATA Standard Safety Assessment (ISSA)—a recognition of its high standards in safety, engineering, operations, and quality systems. This underscores their unwavering commitment to passenger safety. Travel Comfort and Convenience Passengers appreciate Safarilink's straightforward flight model: bookable online, with easy check‑in at Wilson Airport, and allowed 33 lb baggage per person—suitable for safari essentials. Though packed with adventure, cabins remain clean and the crew is trained for off‑airport conditions.
