Self-drive tours in East Africa
Experience the ultimate adventure with a tailor-made self-drive journey through East Africa. Discover the beautiful destinations of Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania with our specially organized self-drive adventures.
Best time to travel
The best time to travel for a self-drive in East Africa is in the dry seasons, from June to October and in January and February. In the rainy season the roads can become impassable.
Climate
Tanzania, Kenya and Uganda are located around the equator. The temperatures are therefore about the same all year round. In the low-lying areas you can expect temperatures around 30 degrees. In the mountains it is a bit cooler.
Recommendations
“If you really want to get off the beaten track, choose the unknown south of Tanzania. Here you will find beautiful game parks, such as the vast Ruaha National Park, the savannahs of Katavi and the Mahale Mountains on Lake Tanganyika.
Known for
A self-drive in East Africa gives you the chance to discover the real Africa. The roads can be challenging, but that is part of the adventure. And the unforgettable encounters with the heartwarmingly friendly people make up for everything.
