Overland Travel Holidays
Overlanding Holiday
Overland travel is all about the journey and what you see and experience along the way. Routes can vary from two weeks exploring Egypt’s ancient monuments along the Nile to an epic 40 week expedition from one end of Africa to another. If you’re really adventurous, organised and have the time and resources, you can venture on your own overland trip. For most, especially the first-timer, joining a trip with an Overland company is the way to go.
Your form of transport is usually a truck that’s been converted for passengers with coach seats, storage and large windows to see all those big, wide, open spaces, although some shorter trips might use local transport. Longer expeditions to remote areas are self-sufficient with stored food supplies supplemented by visits to local markets en route. Accommodation is generally under canvas or in basic hotels/youth hostels and meals range from cooking in a group over the camp fire (spag bol’s a favourite!) to trying out a local delicacy (guinea pig and chips, anyone?)
