Zambia

. We have already had two trips run this way in the last year.

The Trans Africa is the longest expedition we run. On this safari you will experience a phenomenal range of African culture, geography and climate. We cover 20,000 miles of the continent by road, starting in Europe and ending at the Cape of Good Hope in southern Africa.

As we will be camping and travelling for an extended period of time, you must be prepared for an adventurous challenge. It can be hot and dusty, and will sometimes be out of contact from the rest of the world. This means no telephones, shops or any other mod cons. We need you to participate and work with all members of the expedition. For the Trans we use sturdy four wheel drive vehicles, which are purpose built for these rugged off-road conditions.

Accommodation

We carry our own camping equipment on board the expedition vehicle.

Kitty Notes

The tour cost and local payment includes transport in a fully equipped expedition vehicle, road taxes and tolls, services of the driver-leader, use of camping and cooking equipment, campsite fees, entrance to gameparks as specified, and two meals a day while on the truck (generally at lunchtimes we eat at small cafes or restaurants where you can try cheap and tasty local food. If no local food is available we eat on the truck).
