Contents Table - Company Profile
AfricanMecca customer care centers apply the below vehicle standards for access to Tanzania's wildlife parks and cities by road:
• Rigorous Vehicle Standards: Our customer care centers apply every painstaking effort into ensuring that vehicles have maintenance record, which include but are not limited to: Ø The vehicles are serviced on time without delay at every due date. Ø Every vehicle has a log maintenance records that enables the technician to personally know what work has been done on the vehicles. Ø Maintenance on the vehicle is done before the safari and after the safari with no exceptions. Ø The vehicles operated on safari are assigned to your guides for the life of the vehicles; this enables the Professional Guiders to know their vehicles like the back of their hand, enabling them to sense the operations and workings of their vehicle. Ø All vehicle house a fire extinguisher and first aid kits.
• Safari & Tour Vehicle Types: The vehicles used on the safari and tour experience in Tanzania are Land Cruisers, Land Rovers, Range Rovers and Toyota Hiaces. All these vehicles are purchased new and are custom designed and built locally for Tanzania road terrains from companies like D.T Dobie Tanzania.
• Vehicle Engineering: All vehicles have been engineered with up-rated suspension and underbelly protection to ensure the best and comfortable ride.
• Vehicle Comfort: The most comfortable and often used vehicles on Safaris and tours are the Toyota Hiaces, which are perfect for long programs lasting more than 3 days; the comfortable ride greatly reduces pressure on the body especially for families with elderly and children. Take a safari or tour on these vehicles and you will know. There is also more room on these vehicles for movement so if an animal you want to take a picture of is at the rear of the vehicle you can easily walk to the back when the hatch is open. The most pleasurable vehicle to undertake a safari and off-road tours are in Land Cruisers, which exemplify a tradition and history in wilderness experience: The dual fuel tanks, shape of the vehicle, suspension and handling of the vehicles underscores a philosophy of a rugged African outback.
Setting the Record Straight: A few companies have often criticized the Toyota Hiace as not being a Safari or Tour vehicle seen on some of the major National Parks. This claim is unfounded and misleading. If all things being equal, African Safaris should be judged for their wildlife, nature and relaxing experience first, all cushioned in safety and quality, and then for their cosmetics and superficiality of the Safari concept. All vehicles in Tanzania have 4X4 mechanical systems.
• HF Antennae & Radio Systems: The HF Radio systems installed on the Tanzania Safari vehicles are high quality, top-of-the-line equipments capable of delivering sector-wide coverage.
• On Safari and During Tours: Because Tanzania safari and tours are also conducted off-roads, tire punctures or breakdowns are possible, to be realistic. So vehicles operated on safari and tours come with spares tires, chains and the minimal necessary equipment to get the vehicle out of binds.
• Reservation Procedure: Reservations and request made though our organization go through formal request channels with a log track of all that was requested on our clients program. We never issue final confirmations unless all the accommodations or services have been approved. This process assures a quality check all the way through to the end of our client's program, earning us superb compliments, which we are so proud of.
• Safety and Security: In Tanzania, all vehicles are linked to the customer care head offices via HF radio that keep track of the vehicles and interact with guides on a daily basis.
