WE ARE BACK!!!
Both Nigel and Gina are back in England now and agreed that it was the best trip they have ever done.


BUY THE BOOK WITH FULL COLOUR PHOTOS. . .
There are a few ways to read about our adventures and to find out what we learnt (so that you can avoid the same mistakes). Either use the 'country by country' links on this website, or purchase our full-colour report (either in hardcopy or as a .pdf file).

The book has all the content of this website, and more, with detailed country-by-country reports, all of our stories, and superb full colour photos throughout.

The book is priced at £20 (or £7.50 for the download), of which £5 will be donated to Babati Day School in Tanzania.

Check out a free preview, buy the book, or download the report here.


Some Background . . .
On 10 October 2004 Nigel and Gina left Weymouth in their 4x4, waved off by a crowd who had gathered in Weymouth for their leaving party. Destination, South Africa!

In April 2005 they returned, having succesfully driven through North and Eastern africa to the bottom of the continent. Read the website to find out how they got on.


We hope this site lets friends and family (and anyone else who cares) know how we got on and also to feedback logistical and bureaucratic information to the Overland community whose websites were so invaluable in our planning.


Any exchanges of information are always very welcome!! Feel free to contact us.
