Safari Minibus Is an Economical and Comfortable Way To Travel

Safari vans or Safari Minibus as they are sometimes called, offer the Kenyan Safari traveler an economical opportunity to meet their budget safari expectations as it is a cheaper vehicle to hire than the 4x4 Land Cruiser. 



The Safari Minibuses are custom modified to meet a low to moderate level of difficulty in terrain, which is typical of the african savanna in most cases. Since the majority of Kenyan national parks now have regulations limiting driving to 'On Road' and not 'Off Road', our safari minibus can comfortably carry six to seven passengers with ease, to any national park in Kenya. 



Some of the customary modifications the vehicle would undergo to comfortably navigate the safari terrain include: Four spaciously separated individual seats by the windows, a bench like seat for three at the rear of the vehicle, a pop up roof for easier game viewing and photography, an exhaust snorkel for the air intake and engine exhaust, and also reinforced Coil + Spring shock absorbers to cushion the ride. The safari mini bus can hence withstand almost all the terrain but could at times experience some difficulty during the wet muddy seasons.

While four wheel drive land cruisers are really the all weather safari vehicles preferred for longer journeys, the safari minibus is ideal for shorter trips as they offer a comfortable and cheaper mode of travel for the budget conscious safari traveller.

Wild Animals Pooping

When nature calls how do different animals handle their business, every animal poops differently. A couple of videos of some wildlife going to the bathroom when nature calls. Every species had different shapes and sizes of stools which can also be used to identify them like you do with tracks in the sand. #wildlife #animals #wildkenyasafaris Watch Wildlife Videos on YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/shazaadkasmani I Edit Wildlife Photos On Luminar: https://macphun.evyy.net/KWVna Buy Wildlife Photography Gear: https://www.amazon.com/shop/shazaadkasmani Get your Wildlife Photography Shirt: https://teespring.com/stores/shazaadkasmani Signup for Photography Tips: https://www.patreon.com/shazaadkasmani Book a Wildlife Safari: https://www.wildkenyasafaris.com
