Two Australian tourists who died when their truck crashed into a river along a steep section of a road in Kenya were on an Intrepid Travel tour of East Africa at the time, the Melbourne-based tour company has confirmed.
Three other tourists – an Australian, a Briton and a German – suffered serious head injuries after the overland truck they were travelling in crashed through guard rails in Kenya’s Narok County, about two hours west of Nairobi, police said.
The Narok North police chief, Paul Letting, said the driver of the tour vehicle lost control when the right front tyre burst as it was descending a steep section of the road. The two dead were a man and a woman in their 60s, he said.
