What is Overlanding in Africa?

The main reason to start with African Travels was to promote overlanding in The Netherlands. Dutch people have no idea that overlanding is the way forward to explore African when you are between the ages of 18 and 39!

Overlanding is arguably the ultimate way to experience Africa! The fleets of self-sufficient, custom-built trucks are some of the finest in overland travel. Designed with comfort and durability in mind, they are more than simply transport – your vehicle becomes your home from home, and is stocked with all the facilities and equipment (and a few luxuries) to make your overland experience a great one. With forward facing seats and large windows, you won’t miss out on the amazing scenery or wildlife. As one of the team, you’re involved in day-to-day duties including setting up camp or shopping for provisions – a great way to mix with others and meet the local people.

Please have a look at some great examples of popular camping overland tours and we hope to see you out there!
