Must-Know Tips for Your Self-Drive Safari?
Before embarking on your East African road trip, there are some important things to consider to ensure a safe, smooth, and memorable adventure:
- Road Conditions and Driving Rules: East Africa’s roads vary widely, from well-maintained highways to rugged dirt tracks. Familiarize yourself with local road conditions, driving rules, and customs. It’s also advisable to be aware of the weather, which can influence the accessibility of certain routes.
- Safety and Security: While East Africa is a relatively safe region for travelers, it’s important to be cautious and take necessary precautions. Avoid driving after dark, keep your valuables secured, and stay updated on local news and conditions.
- Wildlife Safety: When in national parks and reserves, always adhere to the park rules and stay within the confines of your vehicle when observing wildlife. Wild animals can be unpredictable, and safety is paramount.
- Prepare for the Unexpected: While we provide 24/7 roadside assistance, it’s essential to be prepared for minor car troubles or emergencies. Carry a spare tire, essential tools, and a first aid kit. Your vehicle will also come equipped with a satellite phone for emergencies in remote areas.
- Booking Your Self-Drive Vehicle: Booking a self-drive vehicle with SelfDrive Kenya is simple. You can choose the vehicle that best suits your needs, whether it’s for a solo adventure or a family safari. We also provide one-way rentals if you’re planning to explore multiple countries, so you don’t have to worry about returning the vehicle to the starting point.
