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.

The Colobus Monkeys Of Diani Beach

Angolan Black And White Colobus Monkey in Diani Beach Kenya A wildlife lover deciding to spend a few days at the Diani Beach coastline will be in for a special photography treat. Its one of the few places in Kenya where one can sight the Angolan Colobus Monkey at close range. They are easily identifiable by their black face, black fur and long locks of white hair that surrounds the face and also hangs off the shoulders. Being arboreal, they generally prefer to stay among the tree branches and canopy's feeding on leaves, fruits and flowers rather than foraging on the ground.
