Recently, we made the decision to move many of our programs to four-wheel drive vehicles to improve accessibility and comfort.<\/p>\n<p>There is no question that the roads in Kenya can have some rough patches. This is where a combination of quality, well maintained vehicles and experienced driver-guides can be the difference between a good safari in Kenya and a great holiday experience. We still operate a variety of vehicles meeting the specific needs of our travelers.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For transfers, we use three-seater saloon cars or safari buses. We also use Alphard or V8 vehicles for private VIP transfers. For something really special, we can provide transfers in a Mercedes Benz or luxury 4&#215;4.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For groups, we provide transfers in 24 passenger coaches. These are also used for shared transfers on the Kenyan coast to the many spectacular Indian Ocean resorts we serve.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The interiors of our vehicles are spacious and designed with the safari traveler in mind. Most have power points for recharging camera batteries. Pop-open roofs allow panoramic game viewing as well as protection from the sun. A cooler box provides chilled water and vehicles also carry a first aid kit and other tools to be prepared for any bump along the way.<\/p>\n<p>All seats have seat belts and pass rigorous safety checks before each safari.<\/p>\n<p>The most important part of any vehicle is the driver. Our drivers and driver-guides are well trained and must have extensive experience before they take our travelers on safari.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Overland Trucks<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-127\" src=\"http:\/\/pridedrivetours.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/pd-truck.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"850\" height=\"570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pridedrivetours.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/pd-truck.jpg 850w, https:\/\/pridedrivetours.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/pd-truck-600x402.jpg 600w, https:\/\/pridedrivetours.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/pd-truck-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pridedrivetours.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/pd-truck-768x515.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vehicles &amp; Equipment<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>After many years in the over landing industry listening to the needs, thoughts, and suggestions of previous passengers we had a good idea of what passengers wanted from an overland vehicle and how to build it.<\/p>\n<p>We believe our\u00a0<strong>overland truck<\/strong>\u00a0is the most important piece of equipment for any of our\u00a0<strong>overland expeditions<\/strong>.\u00a0 Without it we wouldn\u2019t be going far!\u00a0 It is our mode of transport and our home for the duration of our expeditions. For that reason, we have chosen a late-model Scania truck. We have tried and tested Scania vehicles over the years and they have proven to be very strong, reliable, and most importantly comfortable.<\/p>\n<p>Our 26 tons Scania truck has been modified and custom-built into a specialist overland vehicle. Gary\u2019s experience as a mechanic and his knowledge of overland vehicles has allowed us to design a vehicle that is suited to over landing in Africa.<\/p>\n<p>A great deal of time has been spent researching passenger needs and requirements. Building and\u00a0customizing\u00a0our expedition truck to ensure it provides the\u00a0foundations for a great overland experience has been paramount. We believe the little \u2018extras\u2019 will help make a big difference to your unique African adventure.<\/p>\n<p>The body has been custom built with practicality, passenger safety and comfort in mind. The truck is fully self-contained and some of the features include:<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00a0<strong>Reclining Seats<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Individual reclining coach seats have been fitted. \u00a0The seat positions are mixed with inward, forward and some rear facing seats. \u00a0At times you will be spending long periods of time in the truck and we believe our passengers should be as comfortable as possible.<\/p>\n<p>There are tables between the forward and\u00a0rear facing seats so catching up on your diary, playing cards and socializing whilst on the road is no problem.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-94544\" src=\"http:\/\/pridedrivetours.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/seats-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pridedrivetours.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/seats-1.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/pridedrivetours.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/seats-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pridedrivetours.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/seats-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/pridedrivetours.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/seats-1-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/>External Baggage Lockers<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Large spacious lockers are located outside\u00a0the truck.\u00a0 Each\u00a0locker is shared by two people and there\u00a0is plenty of space for your backpack and any souvenirs you buy along the way.<\/p>\n<p>For safety and security of personal items and belongings, each locker has a three-point locking mechanism\u00a0that is lockable with a key.\u00a0 All\u00a0lockers have been fitted with rubber seals to help keep out water, dust, and dirt, however, even\u00a0with taking these measures we cannot guarantee that rain, dust or dirt won\u2019t get in.\u00a0 After all it is an expedition\u00a0vehicle \u2013 not a submarine!!<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-94546\" src=\"http:\/\/pridedrivetours.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/BAGGAGE-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1462\" height=\"732\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pridedrivetours.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/BAGGAGE-1.jpg 1462w, https:\/\/pridedrivetours.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/BAGGAGE-1-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pridedrivetours.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/BAGGAGE-1-1024x513.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/pridedrivetours.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/BAGGAGE-1-768x385.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1462px) 100vw, 1462px\" \/>Windows<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Individual tinted glass windows have been fitted along the full length of the truck allowing for great sightseeing opportunities whilst providing protection from the sun\u2019s rays.\u00a0 Each sliding window provides more control over the airflow around individual seating areas.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-94547\" src=\"http:\/\/pridedrivetours.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/PRIDE-CAR.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pridedrivetours.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/PRIDE-CAR.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/pridedrivetours.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/PRIDE-CAR-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pridedrivetours.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/PRIDE-CAR-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/pridedrivetours.co.ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/PRIDE-CAR-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/>Music<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An onboard car stereo system has been fitted.\u00a0 It has a CD player, USB port and 3.5mm jack point socket for connecting iPods and MP3, etc., so you can listen to your favorite music whilst on the road.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00a0<strong>UK Plug Sockets<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The truck hosts a number of different charging point options for your\u00a0<strong>electronic equipment<\/strong>.\u00a0\u00a0We have installed\u00a0USB charging points, 12-volt cigarette lighter sockets and 240-volt UK power points\u00a0so there should be no problem charging cameras, iPods, mobile phones or any other electronic equipment whilst we are on the move.\u00a0 Remember to bring your charging leads with you.\u00a0 If you are\u00a0<strong>not<\/strong>\u00a0travelling from the UK, please remember to also bring a travel adaptor that will connect your equipment to a UK power point in order to charge your electronics.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00a0<strong>Lighting<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The truck has been fitted with 6 large LED ceiling lights that can provide\u00a0either brilliant white light\u00a0or a dull blue glow for subtle lighting.
