• During the safari it is strictly prohibited to exit the vehicle, except for in specially designated areas. Violations of this rule may be accompanied by large fines for the company, including the revocation of its license.
• Off road driving is also prohibited, as such behavior may cause irreparable damage to the fragile balance of the natural ecosystem.
