Book your private jet flight to Nairobi
Nairobi, the capital of Kenya, is East Africa’s safari hub and one of the continent’s most dynamic metropolises. Home to the United Nations in Africa (UNEP, UN-Habitat), the continent’s technology hub (Silicon Savannah), and the starting point for the world’s most celebrated safaris (Masai Mara, Amboseli, Tsavo), Nairobi brings together culture, nature and African modernity in one place. By private jet to Nairobi from London (approximately 9 hours non-stop), you land at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (NBO) with a dedicated business aviation terminal.
flight_takeoffBook a flightVistaJet and NetJets operate the Paris–Nairobi route in ultra-long-range aircraft: the Gulfstream G550, Global 6000 or Falcon 7X. These jets feature bedrooms, lounges and full kitchens to maximise comfort over an 8.5-hour flight. Nairobi is also the ideal base for an East African circuit: Seychelles (5 hrs), Maldives (7 hrs), Zanzibar (1 hr by bush plane).
The Masai Mara (the Great Migration from July to October — one of the greatest natural spectacles on earth), Amboseli with elephants beneath Kilimanjaro, Lake Nakuru National Park (masses of flamingos), and Diani Beach (white-sand beach on the Indian Ocean) make for an unforgettable itinerary. Kenya’s luxury lodges (Singita, Four Seasons Safari Lodge Serengeti, Angama Mara) offer an unrivalled high-end safari experience.

All your questions about private jets to Nairobi
The Great Migration (wildebeest, zebras and gazelles crossing the Mara River) takes place from July to October. This is the most spectacular period, but also the most expensive and the most crowded. January–February is ideal for wildlife with few tourists. The long rains (March–May) are best avoided for safaris, though they bring lush vegetation and reduced rates.
Yes. Bush flights from Wilson Airport (in Nairobi, 10 km from the centre) serve the Masai Mara airstrip in 45–60 minutes. These flights aboard Cessna Grand Caravans or Beechcraft King Airs are operated by local companies (Air Kenya, SafariLink). Your safari lodge will coordinate transport from your arrival at NBO.
The Paris–Nairobi distance (6,400 km) requires an ultra-long-range jet: Gulfstream G550 or G650, Bombardier Global 6000/7500, or Dassault Falcon 7X. These aircraft cover the journey in around 8.5 hours with a bedroom and full dining area. VistaJet is the leader on this route and keeps aircraft permanently positioned in Nairobi.
Angama Mara (panoramic views over the Masai Mara from the tents), Singita Mara River Tented Camp, Four Seasons Safari Lodge Serengeti (on the Tanzanian side), Mahali Mzuri (Richard Branson's Virgin Limited Edition property) and Fairmont Mara Safari Club are the absolute benchmarks of luxury safari in East Africa. Book 6–12 months ahead for July–October.
Yes. Zanzibar (ZNZ) is 1.5 hours by air from Nairobi — perfect for combining safari and beach in a week. The Seychelles are 4.5 hours from Nairobi. A Nairobi (Masai Mara safari) → Zanzibar (beach) → Seychelles (island luxury) circuit over 10–12 days is one of the most complete journeys in Africa and the Indian Ocean. Your operator can coordinate the whole trip.
Paris–Nairobi (8.5 hrs) costs between €38,000 and €72,000 depending on the aircraft. This is one of the longest routes from Paris — an ultra-long-range jet (Gulfstream G550, Global 6000) is essential. For a group of 8–10 people, the per-person cost remains comparable to a First Class ticket with the world's leading airlines, with infinitely more flexibility and comfort.
