Uber Safari launched by Uber in September in Cape Town, South Africa allows users, under its ‘Go Anywhere’ series, to go on a full day trip on wildlife adventures in Cape Town.
Available exclusively in the Uber app from October 1 – February 1, Uber Safari is giving people in Cape Town looking the chance to see lions, elephants, buffalos, leopards, and rhinos in partnership with Aquila Private Game Reserve.
“We’ve designed our ‘Go Anywhere’ series to help our customers book bucket list adventures with the Uber convenience they know and love,” said Frans Hiemstra, Regional General Manager of Uber in the Middle East and Africa. “With Uber Safari – one of our most wild offerings to date – our Reserve technology makes it easier than ever to unlock an epic South African travel experience.”
The full day trip includes a pickup in Cape Town in a branded vehicle and guests enjoy a welcome toast and lunch before boarding a traditional safari vehicle with experienced game rangers and field guides.
“We’re excited to partner with Uber to extend our bucket list wildlife experiences to their customers,” said Johan van Schalkwyk, Commercial Officer of Aquila Collection. “Uber Safari allows folks to book and enjoy an unforgettable day at Aquila, where they’ll get to experience the Big 5 in an easy and luxurious way. It’s the perfect combination of modern convenience and natural beauty, all while supporting wildlife conservation efforts that are vital to preserving South Africa’s biodiversity.”
Aquila Game Reserve is committed to conservation and sustainable tourism and every booking through Uber contributes to conservation efforts to help protect endangered species and ensure the preservation of South Africa’s rich biodiversity. Reservations started on October 1, and are bookable 24 hours to 90 days in advance. The service will run on Fridays and Saturdays until February 1 and costs a $200 flat fee for up to four guests.
Availability is expected to be limited. Riders looking to book a tour are encouraged to book in advance using our Reserve technology. Uber Safari will be visible to all riders in South Africa.
