Our African backpacker adventure tours are best suited to the budget conscious, independent traveller and while the tours are cheap the tour groups are still kept small. So, if you are young, on edge and audacious, an adventure tour is just the thing for you. The nature of most Africa adventure tours makes it possible for young people and those young at heart, to indulge in the immensity of Africa.

Most adventure tours are not luxury tours; thus making it imperative to approach the journey with a receptive mind, and a positive attitude. Cooking and camping utilities are always supplied. Sleeping mats are also supplied - but you have to bring your own sleeping bag. Sometimes it is possible to hire a sleeping bag...but only where specified in an itinerary.
