4yrs ago we were in S.A. with the family (6 pers) and rented a VW-Microbus (T3) and loved it especially for the advantages on safari (everybody anywhere in the vehicle could enjoy open windows to see, hear, smell and photograph the wild). To my opinion this is f.e. not possiple in the Quantum-10 and/or VW-T5 or am I wrong?

Next year we're planning on visiting S.A. again with the same group and will be staying in the Limpopo/Mpumalanga-area and doing a lot of self-safari in Kruger etc. I'm looking for the T3-Microbus again. I have been googling myself silly but can't find it anymore as a rental.

Do you have any suggestions? Very important is that everybody in the vehicle (6 pers) can enjoy open windows on safari. What is THE vehicle to rent for 6 pers + luggage on safari?

Done the same thing and the minibusses do not longer have all windows which can be opened
I rented a Quantum
Has 2 on one side and on the other side 1 for the passengers
So some guys have to move from seat to seat.

Try the Nissan Primestar, it has all the windows that open. And it is comfy as well.

Thnx Bert & Scipio for the advice. The Nissan Primestar sounds good. I've just being trying to find them from J'burg, but also not so easy to find.

Anybody else ideas?
