Overlanding is a self-sufficient trip to distant destinations with camping as the main accommodation structure. An overlanding trip can last for weeks, months, or years expanding beyond national boundaries into different countries. For a comfortable overlanding trip, you will need a right off-road experience vehicle qualified to handle all kinds of terrains.
There are several overland vehicles in Uganda available for hire but the 4×4 Land Cruiser model comes out as the ideal off-road experience vehicle, in this article we will bring you some reasons why you should hire a Land cruiser in Uganda for an impressive overland trip in the Pearl of Africa.
Off-road Vehicle Features
The Land cruisers are described by their excellent off-road features that include big deep-open thread tires that provide the station wagon high ground support coupled with a flexible suspension giving the car that comfort as you won’t feel any road bumps along the trip. These unique features even permit the Land cruisers to cross through deeper waters such as the small water canals or floodwaters so you can be guaranteed you will get where you are going freely and reach where you are going on time.
Full-Time 4-Wheel Drive
Another explanation why you should hire a Land cruiser for your next Uganda trip is the fact that Land cruisers have a full-time 4WD system indicating you won’t have to do a lot to kick in that additional power shaft when crossing a steep slope or slippery surface as the engine will automatically transmit torque to all 4 wheels as soon as a wheel slip is detected.
Big Cargo Room
Overland trips use camping as lodging as earlier said as such concerns carrying a lot of luggage that includes passenger luggage as well as camping equipment. Almost all the Land Cruiser models have a big place for cargo in the back with some having a cargo rack on the rooftop of the vehicle. You can smoothly fit your cargo and camping equipment in the back and some on the rooftop of the car to get enough legroom for a relaxing overland trip in Uganda.
Safari Features
Some of the Land cruisers in Uganda have been made and remodeled for safari trips with impressive features like a pop-up roof and cooler box. The pop-up roof is an ideal feature for tourists preparing a game drive in the national parks as you get stunning sceneries of nature and wildlife while the cooler box will keep your drinks cold while you are out in the field. Another safari unique feature to the land cruisers is a rooftop tent which is ideal for camping adventures. Some of the leading Land cruisers include the Safari land cruiser and the Rooftop tent land cruiser all available for hire with a driver/guide.
