Safarirallyt räknas av många som världens mest svårgenomförda rally. Tävlingen hölls för första gången 1953 i Kenya, Uganda och Tanzania. Rallyt var länge en deltävling, den enda i Afrika, i Rally-VM, men uteslöts 2003 på grund av bristande finansiering och organisation.
De svenskar som vunnit safarirallyt är Arne Hertz, Björn Waldegård, Ove Andersson, Hans Thorszelius, Gunnar Palm och Stig Blomqvist.[1] Tom T. Fjästad, som vann 1962, var svenskättling men hade aldrig besökt Sverige förrän ett par månader efter sin seger.[2]
