Unveiling Heritage: The Essence of 57 Safari: Exploring the '57 Legacy

The name 57 Heritage Safari is inspired by Emirati culture, where the reference to a 1957 Land Rover is simply known as a 57. These Land Rovers, especially the 1950s series 1 and 2, hold significant historical importance in the Arabian desert as the pioneering vehicles introduced there.

Ahmed, an avid collector and proud owner of 200 vintage cars, notably Land Rovers, has passionately restored these vehicles, cherishing their historical value. His love for collecting cars, especially Land Rovers, has inspired the team behind 57 Safari –Hamdy and Boraik – to revive and showcase these iconic 1957 Land Rovers in the desert.

The team’s shared passion for vintage cars, particularly the 1957 Land Rovers, led to the creation of 57 Safari, dedicated to bringing these remarkable vehicles back to the desert tracks. Ahmed advises visitors to ensure the authenticity of the 1957 Land Rovers during their safari, emphasizing the left-hand drive feature, a characteristic prevalent in the Land Rovers of the 1950s.
