A young work colleague of mine has been having difficulty trying to find an O'land Safari Company that caters to a maximum of only 10/12 clients (or less), and is something a little different from your run of the mill large o'land truck.
Length of travel at approx 3 weeks around Aug/Sept this year, taking in Cape Town to Vic Falls (or similar regions) encompassing your most common Game Reserves along that journey. She is more than happy to camp out in tents, but preferably having someone do the cooking.
Her budget is around A$10K (US$9K) for 2, exc international airfares.
Any help or information would gladly be appreciated.

Cheers
Marc

Hey Marc, what is "O'land"??? A company's name, a description??
Could you kindly translate that into English please

Also, might ask what is a "most common Game Reserve"?? A national park like Kruger, or the most popular reserve, or reasonably priced, or ???

regards - tom

Hi Tom

By "overland", I'm talking about those (mostly UK based) large 4/6WD trucks full of under 35's that one occasionally encounters whilst traveling around Sth/East Africa. They are known as Overland vehicles. Did a 6 month Overland trip- Cape Town to London myself back in the '80's.
By Game Parks, I'm talking about the major ones, Kruger, Chobe, Moremi, Vic Falls, etc. ;-)

Cheers

I found these people when I was looking last year.

otherwise Explore, and Exodus and the Adventure Company (all UK companies but take international bookings) do 'small' group tours. Not usually the big overland trucks but follow the same sort of rotues. You can sometimes combine their shorter trips.

I've used Explore in the past for Namibia and Botswana and found it a great introduction to Africa.

Thanks Lynneb
Did a 6 month with Exodus, was home for 7 weeks then did another 6 months with them in Sth America, a lot of people thought I was nuts!
Will check them again but from memory they take up to around 22 clients, which is a little large for her tastes.

Cheers
