Additional notes & Tour inclusions & Exclusions
Additional notes:
- Your first day on safari requires you to pay extra attention to both our company’s recommendations and the visitor regulations for the national parks.
- Except for in officially designated sites, it is strictly prohibited to exit the vehicle during the safari. Large fines for the company and even the loss of its license may result from violations of this provision.
- Off-road driving is also not allowed because such actions could seriously upset the delicate ecosystem’s balance.
- You are permitted to smoke during the safari, but you must take special care to put out and dispose of cigarette butts because they frequently start fires in the savanna.
- Furthermore, we respectfully request that you do not place your feet on the safari cars’ seats or sit in the back of them, as this type of behavior quickly renders the vehicles unusable.
