The Ultimate Trans Africa

The Trans Africa - one of the last great affordable adventures on earth.

An amazing chance for you to travel from London in Africa in 43 weeks, down the entire west coast then back up thru eastern Africa and into the Middle East, ending in Istanbul.

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 purpose-built vehicles for these rugged off-road conditions.

Where we go:
The Trans Africa is the longest expedition we run. On this safari you will experience an unusual range of African culture, geography and climate. We cover 42,000 kilometres of the continent by road, starting in Europe to the Cape of Good Hope in southern Africa. The trip then continues to Nairobi, Cairo and Istanbul.

43 Weeks, 29 countries!
