Can we get a new model car for our Tanzanian safari

A game drive in Kruger National Park

We don’t offer new car models and the reason behind that is the fact that with new model, they have got a lot of electrical wire making the less suitable for terrains of the parks. These terrains are bumpy, and this often result into the disconnection of the electrical wire which might result into you being stack in the wild. We tend to offer a 4×4 Landcruiser old models which are the kings of the offroad driving experience. These cars are strong and raised enough to be able to navigate through all the Tanzania reserve areas with almost no challenge. Even though, they are old models they are in perfect mechanical condition. So not expect to be stack while enjoying your adventure.

All our cars come with a motor third party insurance allowing them to travel through the roads of Tanzania. However, for an extra insurance cover, we can arrange for you the motor comprehensive insurance at an extra 250$ for the entre trip. This cover will cover you for an entire safari while in Tanzania and beyond.

What about one way rental

One of the common questions that we usually face is whether we can offer our clients a one-way rental service for the client who want to start from one area and end their trip at another destination and the answer is yes, we do offer the one way rental service however at extra fee depending on where you want to leave the vehicle. You can leave your car in Mwanza, Arusha Zanzibar, or even Nairobi in Kenya. The fee that will be levied on you will depend on the distance between the pickup and drop off points of your adventure.
