Uber Safari is the latest travel experience to launch as part of Uber’s ‘Go Anywhere’ series, following Uber Bubbles in Paris, Uber Balloon in Cappadocia, Uber Boat in Mykonos and more. Uber is launching a one-in-a-lifetime experience for visitors in Cape Town, South Africa. The latest experience in Uber’s ‘Go Anywhere’ series of travel products, Uber Safari will be available throughout high season, offering riders effortless access to one of Africa’s most iconic experiences.
Available exclusively in the Uber app, this bucket list wildlife adventure is the perfect day trip for travellers heading to Cape Town and looking to see the big five (lions, elephants, buffalos, leopards, and rhinos). In partnership with Aquila Private Game Reserve, one of South Africa’s most popular wildlife conservancies, travellers and locals alike will have the opportunity to book an affordable, luxurious and seamless safari.
“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.”
The full day trip includes a pickup in Cape Town in an Uber Safari-branded vehicle, so riders can sit back and relax as they head out of the bustle of the city. Upon arrival at Aquila, guests will enjoy breakfast and a welcome toast before boarding a traditional safari vehicle with experienced game rangers and field guides. During the game drive, guides will ensure guests have the best opportunity to see the big five – lions, elephants, buffalos, leopards, and rhinos. After the adventure, riders will have lunch alongside access to Aquilla’s picturesque grounds before heading back to Cape Town.
“With Uber Safari, we’re making it easier than ever to unlock an iconic South Africa’s wildlife experience. This is more than just a ride – it’s a bucket-list adventure, created with the same reliability and simplicity Uber riders expect.” said Frans Hiemstra, Regional General Manager of Uber in the Middle East and Africa.
Aquila Game Reserve has a longstanding commitment to conservation and sustainable tourism. Every booking through Uber contributes to conservation efforts that help protect endangered species and ensure the preservation of South Africa’s rich biodiversity. Travelers can enjoy Uber Safari knowing they are part of a broader mission to safeguard the country’s wildlife and natural habitats.
