Of all the continents, Africa must be one of the most under-explored. Challenging to traverse, but worth every step, Africa trips are sought after by those with a burning adventurous spirit.

Taking an overland Africa trip allows you to see much more of the natural beauty of the continent, while not breaking the bank.

The Oasis Overland portfolio of Africa trips are designed to be as safe and fun as possible. However, as with all adventure travel to Africa, there is some risk involved and Oasis provide 24 hour office backup and contract the services of crisis management specialists, Docleaf. Anyone travelling overseas should also take out their own travel insurance to cover against illness, lost baggage and other unexpected incidents.
