TOURISM AFRICA SAFARIS: Your African safari travel guide: safari game lodges & luxury hotels, tailor-made safaris & Africa overland tours

Overland Tours in Africa


So you want to see Africa and all the wonderful things the continent has to offer, but the bank balance doesn't quite stretch to that luxury safari! Solution: an overland tour in Africa.

You get to experience this beautiful continent in a much more affordable (and fun) way. Every year hundreds of overland safari trucks cross Africa between Kenya and the Cape (or vice versa) on what has become one of the most popular and well established overland routes in the world.

Overland trucks are large, modified vehicles that seat 20 to 30 passengers and carry all the equipment necessary for camping and cooking on a trip that can last from one to eight weeks. By using these vehicles costs are considerably cheaper than a luxury safari that utilises flights and luxury lodges. And the best of all; the wildlife experiences you will have in the game reserves and national parks are no different than those you would have on a luxury safari.

Then there is the added excitement of sleeping under the African sky with the far off roar of a lion. The beauty is that you can share all these travelling experiences with like-minded travellers, many of whom will leave as friends after your overland tour.
