In South Africa, Uber has introduced a new safari experience for passengers in Cape Town, allowing them to explore wildlife, including the 'big five' animals. This initiative, which began on October 2, 2023, offers a flat fee of $200 for a day trip that includes transportation, meals, and a nearly three-hour game drive at the Aquila Private Game Reserve. The program is set to run until February 1, 2025, and can accommodate up to four guests per booking. The safari experience is designed to provide both tourists and locals with an easy and luxurious way to enjoy South Africa's natural beauty while supporting conservation efforts. Each booking contributes to the protection of endangered species and the preservation of the landscape. The Aquila Private Game Reserve, known for its commitment to sustainable tourism, partners with Uber to enhance the wildlife experience for customers. Passengers will be picked up in an Uber Safari-branded vehicle, receive breakfast upon arrival, and enjoy a guided safari led by experienced rangers. After the game drive, guests will have lunch and access to the reserve's grounds before returning to Cape Town. This venture follows the success of other unique travel experiences offered by Uber in various locations worldwide. The launch of Uber Safari reflects the company's ongoing efforts to diversify its services and provide memorable experiences for riders, combining modern convenience with the thrill of wildlife exploration.
