Safari for Seniors and People with Physical Challenges
Traveling is right for everyone because we believe in responsible and inclusive tourism. At Joagro Safaris Tanzania, we do provide experiences in Tanzania Safari for older people and people with disabilities across all our services, including safari, Kilimanjaro climbing, cultural, and historical tours.
There are a number of points to consider when planning a trip for an older person or a person with a disability.
Safety on Safari for Older and People with Disability
This is the most important factor to consider while organizing a safari in Tanzania for elderly persons and individuals with impairments. Safety begins with mutual knowledge and the specification of the sort of handicap that a prospective passenger has. We think and recognize that no two disabilities are the same.
We strongly advise travelers to be accurate and clear about the sort of handicap they have, as well as explain some of the extra demands with the help of a friend or relative if necessary.
Safari Jeeps
The safari vehicles we use in Tanzania are 4×4 Jeeps that are Toyota Land Cruisers. This is because many tourist spots have bumpy and rocky roads. These jeeps are suitable for both roadways and have seat belts to accommodate the demands of the elderly and individuals with disabilities. They have a refrigerator for cool drinks and a charging system for simple photography and communication while out in the bush. Not to mention large windows for viewing and photographing animals.
Hotel and Lodges
When planning your experience in Tanzania, mainly on safari for older people or people with disabilities, you need to do committed research on where and how the hotels or lodges are situated to fit your needs, especially if you are traveling in a wheelchair because of either a temporary ailment (broken legs, pulled muscles) or a chronic knee or hip condition. Hotels and lodges are to be wheelchair-accessible.
Hotel and lodges are the ideal part of your African experience as an older or person with disability (reduced mobility, whether disabled by catastrophe, illness or simply the aging process). Click here for other traveling tips in planning your trip
