Adventure Travel in Africa

There are many ways to explore Africa. One way is to hire a car and travel around the country by your self, but this is not always that easy. Factors such as the lack of time, bound by budgets, insufficient knowledge about the country and the feel of insecurity of traveling around on your own prevent most people from taking such a huge step. 

If this is holding you back from traveling, there is another way! Why not journey with one of the organized overland tours through Africa? Drive South Africa recommends Overlanding Africa as an excellent alternative for self-drive through Africa. 

What is Overlanding in Africa all About?

Traveling by overland truck is a safe and exciting way to travel through Africa. You are out on the road with a group of people who all have the same interest in traveling. This way of traveling is not a standard tour like going from point A to point B, but you pass by interesting and unusual places where you will experience Africa on its best. 

Besides certain outdoor activities, such as climbing immense mountains like Kilmanjaro, bungee jumping off one of the highest bridges in the world and rafting down untamed rivers, you also have the time to meet the people of Africa. 

Join the Masai warriors and learn their language and ways of survival, contribute to some volunteer work by help building a school for the children of Uganda, take part in a football match with African boys and eat the African way, with your hands, with a plate of ‘Ugali’.
