This agency offers self-drive rentals. This is a completely independent option, as you can drive your 4x4 into the parks yourself, at lower cost. However, be sure to prepare your trip carefully (see practical recommendations for each park). In this case, you'll need an international driving license. Of course, a guide is at your disposal if you wish, and tours are available. In addition to the classic safaris in the northern parks, we also offer ascents of Kilimanjaro and holidays in Zanzibar...

We loved our self-drive adventures. We could use the hire car to go to lots of the national parks. The company kept in touch, agreed to allow us to change the dates when I ended up in hospital, we're fine even when we had an issue with the exhaust, werent too bothered about small marks on the car. The Rav4 was perfect for what we needed. Definitely would recommend. Beware though - driving standards are totally different in Africa than the UK, Europe, America etc.

We had to change our plans because the visa for Kenya didn't come in time. Gladiola reacted very promptly to our request, offered a reasonable price and dropped off the car 2 days after booking fully equipped in our lodge in Arusha. Good instructions and help with tour planning and reservations for national parks. Only payment was difficult since they didn't accept card payment. For the rest we can really recommend, car was perfect even on the rough roads in Serengeti and Lake Natron we didn't have any problems.
