SAFARI VEHICLES

 

Let us get an idea on what the safari vehicles are.

Safari vehicles are modified Toyota land cruisers which have a slight difference in the carrying capacity. The smallest safari vehicles carry 5 travelers and the extended model which is termed as the largest takes up to 7 travelers maximum. The safari vehicles are equipped with a fridge, seat belt, charging system and some have music system too.

In addition, there are lorries that go in the wild with a maximum of 20 people in one take though these types of cars are very rare to find because they are few and travel on request. They are really strong and can sustain when on rough roads because many of the attractions are found on remote areas but also such vehicles when in good condition they are influential factors for the greatness of your safari.

 

What are these types of safari vehicles then used in Tanzania?

They are mainly the open sided 4 x 4 Cruiser and the Pop-up roof 4WD Cruiser.

Open-sided 4WD Safari Vehicle

In reality it is open in all sides giving you room to see everything coming your way whether in front, behind or on the sides, this car is undeniably one of the best safari vehicles to go in the wilderness especially to the photographers because it gives you nice angels to take pictures. These cars are used in Lake Manyara, Tarangire, Serengeti, Mkomazi and Arusha National Parks in the northern circuit also at Nyerere, Mikumi, Ruaha and Kitulo National Parks in the southern circuit and as well Katavi National Park in the Western circuit.

Something many sites don’t explain is that Open-sided safari vehicles are restricted to some areas like the one’s crowded by cheetahs we are talking about some places of Serengeti and Ngorongoro but because the hosts are aware of this means it can be overcome. Also apart from being safe to do game in the wild with this type of vehicle some precautions should be taken which include; staying silent or using very low voices while talking, making no sudden movement and also stopping the engine if it happens an animal is very close to the area.

 

Pop-up Roof 4WD Safari Vehicle

This is a type of safari vehicle with a roof hatch that pops up to enhance game viewing in various attraction. Many Safari companies use these cars frequently to their guests because they are closed and safe capable of travelling to any destination without problems. First of all, you can open the windows to get fresh air or close them to avoid dust or avoid animals like monkeys from getting into the car unknowingly but also you will feel protected because the roof is open up when doing game hence being in a safe place even if any animal gets closer you to inches.
