Safari Vehicle Hire in Kenya

Safari Vehicle Hire in Kenya

1 Day Kenya Safari

We have no accommodations for this tour, contact us for further details. We provide 4×4 safari vehicle hire and rental. We have a fleet of 30 (4 x 4 safari land cruisers) and safari customised vans for hire. Each vehicle is accompanied by an experienced safari guide who is also a professional driver. Our vehicle licences require the car to be driven by our driver guides. This is because the vehicles are licenced as tour service vehicles (TSV) under Kenya Law. Therefore, our experienced safari driver guides must drive the cars with the necessary tour guide licence. Our guides have between 10 and 25 years of experience guiding wildlife safaris. We can also assist you in booking your hotels and arranging your safari itinerary. The service can be included as part of your safari vehicle hire at no extra cost. If you need a self-driving car hire vehicle, we can help you.

4×4 Safari Vehicle Hire – Car Rental for Safari Customized 4×4 Land Cruisers, Jeeps, and Safari Vans

We have a wide range of safari vehicles that can withstand all-terrain. Vehicles include safari mini-vans with a top hatch for easy game viewing, 4 x 4 all-terrain safari land cruisers, and 25 seat shuttle buses for groups. All our safari vehicles are customised for the rough safari terrain and are well serviced and in excellent condition to ensure they do not break down when you are on your safari in East Africa. The safari vehicles are also fitted with long-range high-frequency radio so that driver-guides can communicate in parks when searching for wildlife on game drives. We can also assist you in planning your safari in Kenya at no extra cost, even when all you need is to hire a safari vehicle. We will advise on the best places to visit depending on the safari season and the most appropriate places to stay when in or near parks for the best safari experience. We can also help you book accommodation and advise on park fee payments, and if it’s all too much work, we can arrange the whole safari for you as a package depending on your requirements. We will work together to ensure you get the best experience possible when planning and when on your safari in Kenya.

The other four types of vehicles are specially made for safari and have pop-up roofs which open up vertically to ensure you can stand on a game drive and take photos of animals and birds while in national parks and game reserves. They have large slide windows that you can open and enjoy your game drive in the park if you get tired of standing to use the pop-up roof. Some seven and five seat Land Cruisers are also customised specially for wildlife photography. They have canvas roll-up windows which, your driver-guide will roll up before a game drive for an expansive view and easy manipulation of your cameras (especially with long photography lenses!) when taking photos.
