Our Travels and Adventures in Africa

We started in Nairobi Kenya, staying at Wildebeest Camp for around 10 days before joining up with a group of like minded adventurers.

We then loaded ourselves into a large truck and worked our way South through Kenya into Tanzania, through Malawi, into Zambia and on to Zimbabwe and Botswana.

From Botswana we travelled across the Northern tip of South Africa into Mozambique and then down along the entire South African coast to Cape town. A truly awesome experience, we'd definitely do it all again

Searing heat, no water and a surprise 8km cycle ride but if you want to experience a real African adventure then Lake Nakuru and Hells Gate are an absolutely must see destination.

Rob & Kirstie in Kenya

We arrived in Nairobi, Kenya without a problem on the 10th September as planned. A 10 hour flight from London Heathrow and Nairobi is nothing like we imagined. They’ve got better cars and shopping here than we have in the UK.
