“I had a great time. There were many parts of the trip that I loved. I enjoyed the Dunes in Namibia, but my favourite part was in Botswana when we were in the wilderness for 2 nights away from the truck. The game drives and the accommodation are something I won’t forget.” George Shakespeare Thank you so much for sharing your incredible experience, George! 🌟 Reviews like yours truly remind us why we do what we do. 📸 @lubicazbonak #AfricanOverlandTours #Overland #Tour #Africa #Explore #Review

“The most amazing things were the Dunes and Etosha national park. I cannot say which stands out more. I really cannot explain the dunes experience nor do the pictures and videos do justice. I say to my friends you have to be there in person to understand it. It's just unexplainable, mind blowing to say the least. At Etosha, seeing the animals in their hundreds is something I only see in documentaries. It created a sense of awe as to how the animals balance in the ecosystem "amazing". This was very special as I was also able to share with my children the videos in real time. I definitely want to travel back to Africa… What I can say is that Ghana is definitely on the bucket list. Again, thanks for putting those six days together for me.” Dalton #AfricanOverlandTours #Review #Overland #Africa #ThisIsAfrica

“The trip was one of the two best trips I've had in my life. Everything about it was perfect: the organisation, the itinerary, the pace, the landscapes, the activities, the animals and their new born babies (travelling to Africa in spring was the best decision for that), the like minded travellers we've had on the group (how random and lucky was that), and most of all the crew. I can't pay enough compliments to the three guides we've had. Their knowledge and experience, organisational and planning skills, their enthusiasm and personalities and humour, their passion and love for this land they live on and this job they do - without them this trip wouldn't have been half as successful and fun.” Anna #AfricanOverlandTours #Review #Overland #Africa #ThisIsAfrica

“Too many "peak" experiences to choose only one... Walking with rhinos, watching the sunset and moonrise (full moon) in the Okavango, night safari with lions and spring hares... I think my favourite was the night in Miombo when we arrived back from night safari to find the elephants visiting the watering hole, which was directly across from our tent... After watching them for a couple of hours, they decided the trees on our side of the road were better than those at the watering hole, so they strolled across the way and wandered around our tent, munching as they went. One mama walked up to the front porch of the tent while we watched from the doorway, plucked a few vinca flowers from the verge, then raised her trunk and explored the edge of the porch and just looked and sniffed at us there in the doorway for about 10 minutes. It was magical - so real and yet unbelievable! Afterwards our guide asked if we were frightened, but honestly we were so awestruck we just didn't think about being afraid. It just seemed so clear that they were curious about us (and our strange smell I expect), and it was a moment of connection across continents and species that I will treasure forever. And of course it never occurred to me to take a photo-- totally caught up in the moment!” Janice Luth Book your Botswana tour today!

“I am writing to thank you for your help in arranging the best trip we have ever had- 14 days in Mozambique and Kruger. The trip was well organised, well led by the outstanding driver/guide 'Dr T', and cook Tembeh.

“It has been a wonderful trip. Everything was just perfect. The guide was fantastic too. There isn’t a precise moment but I especially enjoyed the days between the Serengeti and NgoroNgoro reserve.

Of course, seeing the great migration is a magical experience, especially if you catch a zebra giving birth! Thanks for your help organising this.

📍KM 11.016 pela África de caminhão. Nairóbi, Quênia. Cruzamos a fronteira terrestre entre a Tanzânia e o Quênia e chegamos no último país dessa nossa jornada pela África na expedição de volta ao mundo. Até aqui foram mais de 11.000 kms percorridos por terra. Os últimos meses foram cansativos. Muitas horas de viagem em estradas ruins, acampando todos os dias, alimentação precária, roupas constantemente sujas, bebendo água quente no calor, perna cheia de picadas de insetos. Por outro lado, olhos brilhando a cada nascer e pôr do sol, coração acelerado a cada safári e aprendizado a cada contato com as pessoas. Quando chegamos no Quênia o cansaço já batia forte, e depois de ver tantas coisas ao longo de todos os países que passamos, não imaginávamos que iríamos nos surpreender, mas nos surpreendemos mais uma vez. Ao longo dos dias fomos percebendo o quanto os quenianos eram receptivos! No último dia em terras africanas decidimos celebrar e fomos para uma festa. Na verdade, era um bar que depois das 23h virava uma balada com música ao vivo e muita animação. Ali vivemos uma experiência nunca vivida antes. Estávamos junto com os amigos que viajaram com a gente no caminhão em uma roda de cerca de 10 pessoas, na pista de dança. Aos poucos os locais começaram a entrar na nossa roda e fazer amizade com a gente. Todo mundo dançando com todo mundo, todo mundo se abraçando, um clima que nunca vimos antes em uma festa com gente desconhecida! Foi realmente especial e muito inspirador. Não poderíamos imaginar uma despedida da África melhor do que essa e nunca vamos esquecer tantos sorrisos e gestos de carinho recebidos no Quênia. 💙 Nossa passagem por esse continente foi intensa demais, profunda demais, cheia de aprendizados, de questionamentos, de choques culturais e reflexões que vão reverberar aqui dentro por muito tempo ainda. Esperamos voltar pra cá em breve e trazer mais pessoas para viajar com a gente em uma nova Expedição Mundi 🙌 Asante sana, Afrika! ❤️🌍

📍KM 10.106 pela África de caminhão. Maasai Village, Tanzania. No norte da Tanzânia e por todo o Quênia vive o povo Massai. Eles são um grupo étnico de seminômades que ao longo dos anos tem conseguido preservar suas tradições culturais e modo de vida, ao mesmo tempo que se inseriram na economia moderna. Quando chegamos no norte da Tanzânia fomos visitar uma tribo. Logo que chegamos fomos recebidos com trajes típicos. Eles trouxeram peças de roupa e acessórios para nos vestir como um sinal de boas-vindas. Na sequência fizeram uma dança e nos convidaram para dançar com eles. Também nos explicaram como vivem, mostraram como fazem fogo, como as casas são construídas, como é a divisão de tarefas dentro da tribo… muita informação interessante, mas que, sinceramente, parecia ensaiado e até frio. Racionalmente, com dezenas de turistas visitando a tribo diariamente, é natural que as apresentações se tornem padrão e todo o processo um pouco automático e impessoal. Essa se tornou uma fonte de renda para eles e de forma alguma culpo os Massais por isso, mas, lá no fundo, aquilo não era exatamente o que a gente estava esperando de uma interação com eles. Após a visita pela tribo nós devolvemos as roupas e estávamos indo embora. Enquanto esperávamos o resto do grupo, os meninos que viajavam com a gente no caminhão pegaram uma bola de futebol e começaram a jogar. De forma quase que instantânea, eu que olhava a situação de fora, vi os sorrisos mais sinceros tomarem conta dos Massai. Eles se aproximaram dos meninos e começaram a jogar juntos. Aquela foi a interação mais real e emocionante desse encontro. O futebol unindo culturas. Os massai jogando bola com tanta vontade, os meninos surpresos com a troca e todo mundo realmente feliz. Viajante - há sempre a possibilidade de abrir o coração e se conectar de forma genuína com uma outra cultura. Nem sempre vai ser fácil, pode ser preciso buscar um ponto em comum que permita a quebra das barreiras, mas é possível sair do lugar passivo do “turista distante”. Quem faz a experiência é você ❤️

📍KM 7.606 pela África de caminhão. Ngala Village, Lake Malawi. Entramos no Malawi! Já na fronteira tinha o símbolo do Malawi com o escrito “warm heart of Africa”, que significa “o coração quente de África”. Malawi ocupa atualmente a posição de 4° país mais pobre do mundo. Aqui existe uma combinação de alto desemprego com crescimento desenfreado da população. Por todos os lados vemos muitas crianças, que muitas vezes não tem a possibilidade de ir para a escola. No interior do país grande parte das casas não têm água encanada e nem energia elétrica, por isso, uma cena muito comum por aqui são mulheres carregando baldes de água entre os poços comunitários e suas casas. Apesar de muitos fatores de uma vida bastante dura estarem combinados no Malawi, as pessoas são extremamente doces - as mais queridas que já cruzamos em toda essa jornada de volta ao mundo, até agora. No interior do país, em qualquer lugar que a gente passe, somos recebidos com muitos sorrisos e abraços das crianças. Mesmo com a barreira da língua, as pessoas tentam se comunicar. Quando veem a gente com a câmera na mão, abrem um sorriso instantâneo e ficam animadas para ver o resultado final. 🥹 O turismo atualmente não possui números relevantes no Malawi, e talvez por isso as pessoas ficam tão animadas em ver gente nova por aqui. Independente do motivo, é impossível não ser tocado por esse 𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘮 𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘵 do Malawi, e mais uma vez aprender com tudo isso. Quando a vida já é dura o bastante, o que fazer para aliviar a dor? Aqui no Malawi o senso de comunidade e a amabilidade das pessoas transformaram totalmente um cenário com todos os ingredientes de tristeza em um ambiente leve e doce. ❤️ 📸 Foi difícil escolher apenas algumas fotos das centenas que fizemos do Malawi. As demais vão ficar para o próximo livro 🥹 A última foto é do cenário do nosso camping aqui, de frente para o Lake Malawi. Com carinho, Ale e Léo
📍KM 7.085 pela África de caminhão. South Luangwa, Zâmbia. Subimos em uma Land Rover Defender para fazer um safari no South Luangwa National Park, na Zâmbia. Essa região é conhecida por uma grande população de leopardos, e a expectativa era conseguir ver ao menos um deles, pela primeira vez. Nosso Safari começou depois das 16h. Percorremos alguns kms pelo parque, vimos o sol se pôr e quando tudo já estava escuro, nosso guia começou a buscar os leopardos, que são animais mais ativos de noite. Tínhamos 2 guias no carro - um que dirigia e outro que buscava qualquer atividade animal com uma lanterna. Nós jamais imaginamos que seria possível observar um leopardo caçando de noite, mas a Zâmbia foi generosa com a gente e presenciamos todo o processo da caça de uma Impala pelo leopardo. Presenciar uma cena dessas é um misto de êxtase com dor de estômago. Ao mesmo tempo que a natureza é maravilhosa, ela também é cruel. Foi um momento forte para todos nós dentro do carro, mas apenas mais um dia normal na savana africana. 🐆 _________________ 𝘘𝘶𝘦𝘳 𝘧𝘢𝘻𝘦𝘳 𝘶𝘮𝘢 𝘷𝘪𝘢𝘨𝘦𝘮 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘰 𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘢 𝘱𝘦𝘭𝘢 𝘈́𝘧𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘢?

📍KM 6.345 pela África - agora de caminhão! Lusaka, Zâmbia. Entramos na Zâmbia! Provavelmente não é um país que está na lista de desejos da maioria das pessoas, e as poucas que já passaram por aqui, visitaram apenas Victoria Falls. Realmente a Zâmbia não é um destino repleto de atrativos turísticos, mas aqui inicia uma etapa da nossa viagem pela África que não é sobre lugares belos, mas sim sobre a vida real. Dentro da Zâmbia existem 70 etnias distintas e a maior parte da população vive abaixo da linha de pobreza (ou seja, com menos de 1,25 dólar por dia). A expectativa de vida é uma das menores do mundo (41,2 anos) e cerca de 14% da população possui o vírus HIV. Pois é, dura realidade. Nós cruzamos mais de 500kms pela Zâmbia entre Vic Falls e a cidade de Lusaka, e o que vimos nesse caminho foram apenas pequenos povoados, casas muito simples e uma vegetação bastante seca. Por outro lado, toda vez que víamos pessoas pelas ruas as cores vivas e estampas das roupas típicas roubavam a cena. É como se aquilo traduzisse que, mesmo em um lugar remoto, com condições tão adversas e um clima duro, a alma é colorida. Animados para percorrer a África de carro com a gente?

“I highly recommend Africa Overland Tours especially for those that are new to travelling in Africa such as myself. I did the overland tour from Cape Town to Vic Falls, and despite reaching out at the last minute (1 week before my planned travel date), Reshma was super prompt and found me a perfect tour within 24 hours!

“I highly recommend Africa Overland Tours especially for those that are new to travelling in Africa such as myself. I did the overland tour from Cape Town to Vic Falls, and despite reaching out at the last minute (1 week before my planned travel date), Reshma was super prompt and found me a perfect tour within 24 hours! The tour itself was led by an amazing crew of a tour guide and driver who was friendly, amiable and helpful throughout the trip.” Ethan Cheow #AfricanOverlandTours #ExploreAfrica #Africa #Review #Travel
