A lot of time and research has been undertaken to make sure our vehicles have every eventuality taken care of. The reliable 300TDI Land Rover 5 door station wagons are great safari vehicles, known for their durability and ruggedness the world over. They are supplied with a huge range of equipment from front to back for your enjoyment as well as safety. Each vehicle is sent out with extra Jerry cans for fuel and water, tools, high lift jack, winch and 2 spare tyres.

Undivided attention is taken to each vehicle . They are fully serviced regularly and thoroughly checked after each safari. We will not allow you to take a vehicle out if we feel it is not working properly and would not be prepared to go on safari with it ourselves.

Whilst on safari, there are a number of daily checks we ask you to carry out to ensure your safety and maintain the good working of the vehicle, so preventing unnecessary breakdowns. These we would go through with you prior to taking the vehicle out. Your safety and the safety of our vehicles is paramount.

At Shaw Safaris we pride ourselves on making sure you have a full briefing and familiarisation period with the vehicle and its equipment. This is tailored to your needs and experience, but may include a drive in Arusha National Park with someone on hand to assist if needed from practising making a camp fire or erecting the tent. We want you to feel completely happy and confident before you go on your safari, so making it more enjoyable for you and worry free.

If you have limited experience driving a 4x4, a day course may be beneficial. Footloose 4x4, based in Peterborough, runs these courses for us. They are tailored to meet your individual needs. Please contact us for further information or Paul@footloose4x4.com (www.footloose4x4.com)

We also have many books and DVDs which may be beneficial and we can send out to you.

Our 24 hour back-up team is here to help you should a situation arise. You will be given a comprehensive list of telephone numbers.
