Dear Guest and Visitor to our WEBSITE
Background: All the tours listed with ECO4X4AFRICA are self camping tours and that have a specific meaning. Many people on safari are from South Africa but there are more Guests from other countries who want to go on safari in Africa and therefore we have a plan in place to serve those requirements, to make the holiday as pleasant as possible. Most of the time foreign guests must buy camping equipment, to be self sufficient while on Safari and afterwards the have to give the items away, for free, to somebody they don’t even know. Eco4x4africa got 10 4x4’s vehicles for safari purpose and 10 sets of camping equipment available for rental if you need to rent. You can rent anywhere and still go with us on safari, you don't have to rent from us.
Always remember our motto
“WE DON’T SELL SAFARIS – WE DO SAFARIS” – Guided or alone!
