Fitness
Please be aware there will be some long travelling days over rough terrain in dry and dusty conditions. The sealed roads are generally very badly maintained and at times we also use dirt roads – which are worse. Occasionally they may even become impassable due to poor weather conditions, causing us to re-route the itinerary. You must be prepared for a fair bit of bouncing around. Meals on this trip will be quite basic, as the variety and availability of fresh food is sometimes very limited. You will go up to three nights in a row without shower facilities and there may not be hot water when you do get shower facilities. If you feel this will be a problem, may we suggest you consider a safari in just southern Africa.
