- Second to none: Our Maruti 4×4 jeeps are simply the best. Because they are so small, our skilled drivers can easily drive through narrow jungle paths and rocky areas to follow animals closely
- Amazing views all around: Because our jeeps have no roof and low sides, they give you a clear view in every direction. This makes it perfect for photographers using big cameras and for guests who want to feel surrounded by the sights and sounds of the jungle.
- A personalised experience: Because our jeep safari vehicle seats up to six people, it offers a quiet and focused trip. Small group size allows our expert naturalist to talk directly to you and answer your questions.
- Fast and ready to move: When a warning call is made by a monkey or a deer to signal that a tiger is nearby, the jeep can be quickly and safely moved by our drivers so you can get the best possible view.
