The Oasis Team

Our crew and UK staff all have considerable knowledge, experience and enthusiasm for their work and for the countries and places we visit.  Nearly all our Tour Leaders and Drivers join Oasis after having travelled with us or are experienced locally based crew. Our HQ team have all either worked on the road or travelled on trips with us.

Crew on the Road

Our crew have gained considerable knowledge and experience of travelling even before they join us. They have a passion and an enthusiasm for their work and for the countries and places we visit.

Their experience and knowledge will enable you to get the most out of your trip and to have an unforgettable experience. Their roles are many and varied and include amongst other things, maintaining the truck throughout the trip, organising group activities and bookings, managing trip funds, overseeing group rosters, organising border crossings and permits, organising the day to day running of the trip and passing on general information to the group. However, Oasis crew are not guides as such, so do not expect them to hold your hand every step of the way - get out and experience things for yourself, read the guide books, get lost in markets, meet the local people and talk to them - it’s all part of the experience!
