Who books private
Families with children, couples, photographers, anyone on a flight clock, and groups who want to stay with a rhino or a lion instead of moving on. The vehicle never stops at a second hotel. The price stays the same whether you are 1 guest or 6, so a family of four pays $75 each on a half-day.

Which vehicle
We run safari vans and Land Cruisers, both with pop-up roofs so you can stand and see over the grass. The Land Cruiser sits higher and suits photography. Ask for it when you book and we confirm availability. Both stay on the park roads, as KWS requires. See vehicle options.
