Africa Road Trip: One LandCruiser, Two Australians, 300 Days
Why can’t we ship our own vehicle from Australia? It is roadworthy, reliable and we know its history and we can set it up for camping in Africa. Why not? Africa Road Trip is the story of an Australian couple’s overland self-drive adventure.
What are we thinking? Can we really do this alone? Will we be safe?
Brian and Carol traveled over 35,000 kilometres, steering their way through 22 baffling border crossings in and out of 17 countries. They tackled the daily challenges of the African continent where stark contrasts of wealth and poverty, squalor and beauty, corruption and kindness go hand in hand. Africa Road Trip provides a broad offering of information and observations ranging from the practical and informative to the quirky and amusing, and depicts the people and culture, the history and traditions, the wildlife and landscapes, the agriculture and industry, the bureaucratic red tape and bribery and the camaraderie of fellow overlanders along the way.
A must for overland travellers, 4WD enthusiasts and armchair adventurers.
