Overview:

Do you like driving and want to get paid for it? How about driving a big open-air military vehicle, seeing animals from

around the world but not leaving the country? Join our Safari team as a truck driver! You’ll be paired with our truck

trainers and learn about our trucks while driving guests around our 350-acres Safari with 70 different species from 6

continents. See animals that are playing, giving birth, growing up, and even animals that are extinct in the wild. You will

never make the same trip twice! With your tour guide you will provide memories that will stay with guests for a lifetime
