What makes Kenya so unique for an electric vehicle safari?

+

In Kenya, electric safari vehicles are typically converted from existing models, including Land Rovers or Toyota Land Cruisers.

Key benefits of enjoying a safari by electric vehicle include a reduced environmental footprint and a completely silent experience. This enhances your comfort and increases your chances of seeing wildlife.
