Tips for Motorbike Safari
It is essential for travelers to have motorcycle-riding experience before
signing on for the trip. Just knowing how to ride a bike doesn't suffice.
You should also have a pretty good memory of remembering the routes besides
a good road sense. Some other facts should always be kept in mind while
taking up a safari trip. Be prepared to accept whatever is available for
stay. Accommodation won't necessarily be always a luxurious one, so get
prepared to stay either in ethnic huts or tents and camps. Potable water
won't always be available, so sufficient backup should be kept. If it's not
possible, boil the available water, purify it with chemical tablets and
carry it in bottles.
Carry you own food if you are planning to camp on your safari trip. Carry
always accurate and reliable route maps, or better to engage a guide if you
are unaware or new to certain locations. Carrying a basic first aid kit is
always advised. If you are near a wildlife sanctuary, open fires are not
permitted. So you should extinguish the fire before leaving the campsite.
You should also check out that whether you are going to get proper
equipments with your safari trip, including renting facilities for bikes.
Make sure that your bike is reliable and well-tuned before leaving.
