Uber launched its dedicated safari booking service in Nairobi, Kenya, enabling users to arrange guided game drives in Nairobi National Park directly through the Uber app. The service, dubbed Uber Safari, debuted in South Africa last year.

The service offers guided tours of Nairobi National Park in licensed safari vehicles for up to four hours. Day safaris cost  about $200 for up to seven passengers, while night safaris are priced at  about $320 for up to five passengers.

Bookings can be made up to 90 days in advance for day safaris and five days ahead for night safaris through the standard Uber app. The service includes door-to-door transportation in branded safari vehicles with licensed guides. Bookings are processed on a first-come, first-served basis with limited availability.
