Your choice of vehicle largely depends on your travel needs for example your travel group size, budget, and personal preferences. Be reminded that Tanzania is a very large country with a surface area of 947,300 square kilometres; and is more than twice the size of the USA state of California. This means that you have to be prepared to drive/travel very long distances to get to your destinations. Therefore, you need a strong and reliable vehicle that can go long mileages while being able to withstand the unstable roads and terrains in safari destinations.
At GoFurther 4×4 Car Rentals Tanzania, we offer a diverse fleet of vehicles for you to choose from and here are some of the top recommendations for your safari adventure.
