4×4 Camping in East Africa.
We organize self-drive journeys across the borders of East Africa for you. These trips are designed for independent adventurers who are keen to explore diverse locations and wildlife. Such journeys require thorough research on the routes to take, the attractions to see, and the adventures available at each destination. A 4×4 vehicle is essential for navigating the rugged landscapes, which sometimes necessitate venturing off-road to reach remote areas. You will need to ensure you have the proper documentation for both the vehicle and yourself as a traveller to cross borders without issues.
For those planning independent trips, Tanzania presents a variety of exceptional safari locations, ranging from the easily accessible and wildlife-abundant northern circuit parks such as Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire, and Lake Manyara, to the more remote and adventurous southern and western parks including Ruaha, Nyerere National Park (previously known as Selous), Katavi, and Mahale Mountains.

Kenya offers a diverse array of safari experiences, highlighting famous destinations like the iconic Maasai Mara National Reserve, known for the Wildebeest Migration and its Big Cats. Additionally, it includes Amboseli National Park, renowned for its elephants and stunning views of Mount Kilimanjaro. Other notable parks and reserves comprise Samburu, Lake Nakuru, and Tsavo, providing a spectrum of options ranging from budget-friendly to luxurious, customised trips. Safaris can also be combined with various activities, such as beach holidays in Mombasa or Lamu, and are available in multiple lengths and styles, including camping, fly-in, and traditional lodge-based experiences.
For those looking to explore Rwanda on their own, there are many key places to see. Kigali, the capital, acts as a vibrant starting point, while Volcanoes National Park offers unforgettable adventures for those interested in gorilla trekking. Furthermore, Nyungwe Forest National Park is perfect for individuals eager to trek alongside chimpanzees. It is vital to be ready for Rwanda’s diverse climate and landscape, especially in the lush forest regions. Participate in local experiences, such as the scenic Congo Nile Trail or the informative tour at the Nyamirambo Women’s Centre. Rwanda is known as a fantastic destination for solo travellers, praised for its safety, cleanliness, and robust transportation systems that connect the main attractions. While independent travel provides considerable flexibility, it is important to secure popular activities, such as gorilla trekking permits, well ahead of time.
