The superior trucks used on our most popular tours are Mercedes Benz or M.A.N vehicles, purpose-built as overland trucks in South Africa. Each has at least one safe, and all the lockers are fully lockable. They have windows that slide across or PVC sides with windows that can be rolled up for game viewing and photography, a cool box for ice, a stereo, comfortable forward or inward facing seats, communal lockers for use during the day, interior and exterior lighting, and ample storage space for luggage, tents, food, camp stools, and cooking equipment. The superior trucks are crewed by an experienced driver/mechanic, tour leader, and safari cook.
