This title is for all you travellers out there who: Didn’t know your 4x4 was meant to be driven on dirt. Believe that only travel agents are capable of putting together stunning nature tours. Get withdrawal symptoms when deprived of a hot shower, flushing loo and soft mattress. Thought all 4X4 trips were meant only for Rambo’s. Are unable to endure a handful of days without your cellphone, DSTV and local radio DJ. Don’t ‘do’ camping. Revel in the occasional spike of adrenaline by sorting out vehicle hiccups instead of dialing for AA-Assist. Once believed that Paris, London or New York was the ultimate travel destination. Or... if you’re an armchair traveller, you simply want to experience through our eyes the amazing places we travelled to!
