Halfway through the safari, they do stop at an area called Camp Adventura where they tell you that everyone has to get off the truck.

If something really exciting was going on (ex: a baby bear cub was showing off to us) the driver would stop for a little longer so people could continue to watch before having to move on. We saw a great variety of animals, some already extinct in the wild, others close to. The tour guides were great – shared lots of great information, were upbeat and friendly. The open air trucks made it feel like you were at a real safari in some of the countries you visited. I liked being able to spend my time looking around at animals vs the old method of having to drive myself, concentrating on the road. The new safari was really enjoyable! The trucks are pretty big – I think about 6 rows of 5 seats. They had a separate platform and trucks just for Flash Pass guests. The wait in Flash Pass line was only about 20 minutes. Thank god we had the Flash Pass because I overheard the wait was already 2 hours. by the time we arrived at the entrance to the safari.

As I said it took us an hour total to check in so it was 11:30 a.m. Also we heard that it takes about an hour and a half to do the safari so we wanted to do that first so the rest of the day could be spent on rides.

We started our day with the safari first because they close earlier than the rest of the park. The only option is to go in the safari truck. Note that you can no longer drive your own car through the safari as other posters have said below. My husband and I visited the new safari tour at Six Flags over the weekend.
