- Where should I go? – When and how should I book sites?
- How should you go about border crossings? – Do I need any training for my trip?
- What should be done before leaving on an expedition?
- Should my vehicle have any modifications before we head off?
- What equipment, food and medical supplies should I take with me and what can I buy enroute?
A little more about how we work.
For us, an expedition is more than just plotting a course and heading off. An expedition is life changing, whether it be your first or 20th. So with this in mind, we spend the time with you in order to understand who you are, what you are about, and what you are hoping to achieve from this expedition.
Armed with this information, we then work hand-in-hand with you to help plot your route, field any questions you may have, facilitate training through our providers (4x4ing, birding, photography, bush cooking, wildlife courses and the likes), connect you with our team of experts and ensure that you are fully ready to head off on your overlanding expedition.
The good news is that we also get preferential rates at lodges and selected self-catering establishments as well as for those bucket list experiences which means we can also assist in bookings before or during your expedition, which will help save you some extra dollars / kwacha / pula on the road which all adds up. Further to this we also have a number of hosted overlanding packages that may be of interest to you!
Ultimately our goal is to make your expedition a trip of a lifetime and we are committed to helping in any way we possibly can by sharing our knowledge, insights and contacts with you. We aim to take away all the stresses and strains before arriving in the country or departing on your trip.
We look forward to taking the journey with you!
