Days 3
Nairobi to Meserani Snake Park
We board the truck early this morning for our first drive, taking us south across the border into Tanzania. Journeying across vast grasslands, we’ll pass villages and people going about their daily lives on our way to the town of Arusha. We will camp tonight at Meserani Snake Park on the outskirts of Arusha and get ready for tomorrow’s safari into the Serengeti.
Meals: Breakfast, lunch and dinner eaten at the truck
Overnight: Meserani Snake Park - camping
Days 4
Serengeti Safari, Olduvai Gorge
Our safari guides and drivers will collect us after breakfast in specialist safari vehicles, and we’ll begin our journey to one of the most famous wildlife reserves in the world, the Serengeti National Park. Passing through rolling hills, we stop at Olduvai Gorge, a UNESCO World Heritage site where fossils of early man have been unearthed and given us incredible knowledge of our own evolution. We visit the museum for wonderful views over the gorge and to learn about the site, see the fascinating fossils found here as well as tools used by early man.
We continue to our camp for the night on the Serengeti Plain, where our tents and evening meal will be ready for us.
Meals: Breakfast eaten at the truck, picnic lunch and dinner at the campsite
Overnight: Seronera campsite - camping
Days 5
Serengeti wildlife safaris
Early this morning we head out in our safari vehicles for our next game viewing drive, hoping to spot some of the Serengeti’s vast range of wildlife. We’ll look out for well known species like lion, cheetah, elephant, giraffe, hippo and buffalo as well as lesser known characters that may be new to grown ups and children alike, such as the dik dik, topi, dung beetles and mongoose. Depending on the season, we may view vast herds of wildebeest and a wide array of birdlife is usually seen.
After a morning’s game drive, we will return to camp for lunch and time to relax before heading out again in the afternoon, driving through different areas and looking for animals we didn't see this morning. Keep your binoculars and cameras at the ready!
Meals: Breakfast, lunch and dinner at the campsite
Overnight: Seronera campsite - camping
Days 6
Serengeti safari, Masai village
We start with an early morning game drive or you have the option to take a hot air ballon ride over the plains – an incredible experience and a unique way to look for wildlife! Please note the Balloon Safari is an optional activity at additional cost and must be booked in advance. After an early lunch at camp we start to head towards the rim of the Ngorongoro crater, visiting a traditional Masia Boma (village) on the way, before reaching our overnight stop at Simba Campsite. If time allows, we'll take a guided walk through the more forested countryside of the rim of the crater, a big contrast to the grassy plains we've mainly been exploring so far.
Meals: Breakfast, lunch and dinner at the campsite
Overnight: Simba campsite - camping
Days 7
Ngorongoro Crater safari, back to Arusha
Today’s safari takes us from the rim to the floor of the crater which is home to a huge range of animal and plant species. This area has possibly the highest concentration of game animals in the whole Africa! We should see herds of zebra and wildebeest, family groups of hyenas and elephants and maybe glimpse the rare leopard or black rhino. There are also healthy populations of lions and cheetahs, so this morning should be packed with highlights. We’ll stop for a picnic lunch on the crater floor before a final game drive out of the crater and then the return journey back to Arusha where our overland truck and crew are waiting for us.
Meals: Breakfast at the campsite, picnic lunch, dinner eaten at the truck
Overnight: Meserani Snake Park - campsite
Days 8
Arusha to Marangu
Our family overland journey continues this morning bringing us to the town of Marangu, in the foothills of Africa’s most iconic mountain, Mount Kilimanjaro. Hopefully we will get clear skies over the next day or two for a view of this magnificent mountain’s peak. We’ll spend two nights here and we have some free time this afternoon to settle in and relax after our few days of driving and being on the look out for wildlife!
Meals: Breakfast and lunch eaten at the truck and an evening group meal included
Overnight: Marangu Hotel - camping (upgrades may be available)
Days 9
Marangu village walk
Today we’ll go on a village walk, taking in the lush environment and seeing caves and waterfalls and walking through coffee plantations.

Meals: Breakfast, lunch and dinner eaten at the truck
Overnight: Marangu Hotel - camping (upgrades may be available)

Meals: Breakfast and lunch eaten at the truck, group dinner
Overnight: Firefly - camping
Days 11
Ferry crossing to Zanzibar
We continue to Dar es Salaam where we say goodbye to our overland crew and truck and board the ferry to take us to Zanzibar Island! Our friendly local Oasis representative Daniel will meet us from the ferry from where we transfer to Nungwi, another fabulous beach location where we will spend the next 4 nights. He'll give everyone a briefing about the island and all the various activities available during your stay.
Meals: Breakfast eaten at the truck. Lunch and dinner at your own expense.
Overnight: Baraka Bungalows or similar - rooms
Days 12
Spice Tour and Stone Town
Today we’ll gain in insight into Zanzibar’s rich history on a Spice Tour. Venturing into the busy, narrow streets of Stone Town, we explore the spice market, taking in all the sights, sounds and smells! We can imagine the grim days of the slave trade as we walk around old slave forts and delve into dungeons before travelling out to working farms to learn how spices are produced along with other local fare. A delicious local lunch is included during the tour.
Meals: Breakfast at our accommodation. Lunch on the tour, and dinner at your own expense.
Overnight: Baraka Bungalows or similar - rooms
Days 13
Free time at the beach
We have a free day today to snorkel, swim with dolphins, scuba dive or just enjoy Zanzibar’s famous white beaches! Our local representative will help you to arrange any optional activities.
Meals: Breakfast at our accommodation. Lunch and dinner at your own expense.
Overnight: Baraka Bungalows or similar - rooms
Days 14
Flight to Lusaka and re-join truck
The next leg of your journey starts today as you leave Zanzibar and fly to Lusaka in Zambia (flight not included). Here you re-join the truck, which will have been transiting south over the last few days. Flights are available from Zanzibar to Lusaka with Air Tanzania (with a stop-over en-route). If everyone arrives into Lusaka on this flight (14.15) then we will start driving towards Victoria Falls today.
Your other option is to book a flight ticket from Zanzibar or Dar es Salaam to Victoria Falls today or tomorrow morning (to arrive in Victoria Falls sometime on 9th Aug). This would save you a long day's driving from Lusaka to Victoria Falls, but flight options are more limited for this routing.
Breakfast at our accommodation. Lunch at your own expense. Dinner at the truck.
Days 15
Drive to Victoria Falls
It is a long day's driving today through the Zambian countryside from Lusaka to Victoria Falls. On arrival, we check into our accommodation and have a free evening.
Breakfast and lunch at the truck
Days 16
Victoria Falls
Our family overland adventure gets off to an amazing start with a visit to one of the seven natural wonders of the world, Victoria Falls. Known as the “Smoke that thunders” in the local Tonga language, it is the largest single curtain of falling water in the world and 70% of the exquisite views are seen from the Zimbabwe rain forest, from here the falling water’s impressive roar can sometimes be heard from 40 kilometres (25 miles) away. At its peak, the volume of water coming over the falls is around 150 million gallons per minute. This amount of water is just incomprehensible…a good size bath holds 40 gallons, so 1 million gallons would equate to 25,000 baths… making the high-water mark of 150 million gallons equate to 3.75 million (the entire population of Liverpool and Manchester combined) bathtubs of water thundering over the falls every single minute. That’s a lot of water!
The rain forest surrounding it, which has constant rain 24/7 from the never-ending spray of the Falls, has a unique ecosystem. It is a botanists dream and bird lovers’ paradise. There are species here that don’t occur anywhere else, and families are strongly recommended to look just a little beyond the 2 km pathway and the numerous viewpoints towards the overgrowth to try and spot them. One of the great things about the falls is that the area has not become over commercialised. In fact, once you are standing by the Falls your view will not be much different to that of David Livingstone’s who first saw the Falls in 1855.
You have the afternoon free to take part in a range of optional adventure activities such as white water rafting, bungee jumping, gorge swing or evening horse riding. If you're looking to relax, there are various craft markets and coffee shops to enjoy.
Meals: Breakfast and lunch eaten at the truck. Group dinner included today.
Overnight: Victoria Falls Rest Camp - en-suite lodges
Days 17
Chobe National Park
We have an early start today as we leave Zimbabwe and cross the border into Botswana and on to Chobe National Park. Chobe is most famous for its elephant and buffalo populations, both of which can herd in epic proportions. With an estimated 40,000 to 60,000 elephant, these gentle giants constantly surround you. We are there during the dry season when the Chobe River sees thousands lining the banks and crossing the water towards our campsite, giving the kids the chance to view them close up, an unforgettable experience and a lifelong memory. There is the option for an afternoon game drive (not included) before our evening river cruise which provides excellent photograph opportunities! It really is a lovely way to see the sun setting over the horizon.
Meals: Breakfast, lunch & dinner at the truck today.
Overnight: Chobe Safari Lodge - camping
Days 18
Chobe to Ngepi on the Okavango River
Following on from here we find ourselves crossing another border into Namibia and heading to the Caprivi strip. This is considered Namibia’s answer to The Okavango Delta, an area which offers an incredible water-based safari location. Being sandwiched between Angola, Zambia and Botswana and near the tip of Zimbabwe, the region is surrounded by 5 perennial rivers – Chobe, Kwando, Linvanti, Okavango and the Zambezi – which makes it a haven for elephants, hippo, crocodile and buffalo. The bird watching is also unrivalled, with the region recording an incredible 660 different species. All of which offers families an endless number of activities including game viewing by boat, sunset cruises and canoeing adventures which are also a great way to relax and reconnect.
Meals: Breakfast, lunch & dinner at the truck today.
Overnight: Ngepi Camp - camping (upgrades available on request)
Days 19
Safari activities at Ngepi
You have a free day today on the Okavango River where a multitude of optional activities are available.
On the optional Mokoro cruise local poler guides will navigate the extensive waterways using canoes similar to their traditional Mokoros (dug out canoes). This is a great experience and a good way to get a hippo's eye view of the surroundings.
There are also a number of other optional safaris including game walks and game drives with specialist guides, giving you the chance to see elephant, crocodile and hippo up close and personal.
The trip is based on camping in our tents here. However, Ngepi Camp also has some fun treehouse and bush hut accommodation which is available to upgrade to if you wish. Please contact us to book - riverside treehouses will be allocated on a first come first served basis. The camp also has a unique floating swimming pool in the river which we just know the kids will love.
Meals: Breakfast at the truck today. Lunch & dinner at your own expense.
Overnight: Ngepi Camp - camping (upgrades available)
Days 20
Okavango River at Rundu, Sunset boat trip
We head towards the extreme northwest of Namibia to the south banks of the Okavango river which borders Angola. Rundu is a bustling, lively place which provides a great insight into a thriving African town where we are able to stock up on provisions.
There is the opportunity to visit Mbunza Living Museum (not included). As a communal business for the local people of the Kavango, this sustainable project means they are able to preserve their traditional culture and to generate an additional income. The Living Museum’s traditional presentation covers everything from everyday life (traditional cuisine, fire making, basket and mat weaving, etc.) to bushwalks and fishing and finally to highly specialised techniques like blacksmithing, pottery and the making of drums. This provides visitors with a detailed and authentic insight into the traditional, pre-colonial culture which especially appeals to the younger travellers in the group.
This evening we aboard a cruise along the Kavango floodplain where we have the wonderful experience of watching the sunset whilst enjoying the local bird and wildlife, hopefully watching some hippos yawning as the sun goes down.
Meals: Breakfast & lunch at the truck. Group dinner included today.
Overnight: Camp Hogo Kavango - camping
Days 21
To Etosha National Park
It is now time for a classic safari as we head west to Etosha National Park, famed for offering some of the most unique game watching experiences in Africa. We will reach Etosha in the afternoon, and in the evening we'll enjoy our first game drive. Later in the evening we'll be able to watch wildlife coming to a nearby floodlit waterhole.
Meals: Breakfast at accommodation. Lunch & dinner at the truck.
Overnight: NWR Namutomi Camp - camping
Days 22
Etosha National Park Safaris
Etosha is considered by many safari aficionados as one of Africa’s greatest wildlife reserves. It covers 8,600 square miles, hosts a colossal salt pan (which is four times the size of Los Angeles and is so large that it can be seen from the moon!!). It is also home to 4 of the ‘Big Five’ (elephant, rhino, lion and leopards). Being the country's leading wildlife attraction, what better way to enjoy it than looking out from a truck as we drive along, stopping where and when is needed along the various watering holes. Kids can enjoy being David Attenborough by spotting species such as giraffes, zebra, wildebeest and elephants or even lions resting on the side of the road. With 114 different animal species and more than 300 bird species, the kids should be kept on their toes as animal spotters. Turning off the engine as needed we will have the chance to enjoy the spectacle of herds of zebra lapping, impala and many others congregating around the watering holes which during the dry season (May to October) host animal species in biblical numbers making August undoubtedly the best time for a family safari visit.
Meals: Breakfast, lunch and dinner at the truck today
Overnight: NWR Halali camp - camping
Days 23
Etosha to Himba Village
We continue to spot wildlife on our game drive to the National Park gate where we leave Etosha and journey on to our overnight camp. This is a small family operated site in the middle of the Namibian desert whose efforts serve to support the local Himba people and provide schooling for the children. Whilst there we have the opportunity to meet some of the local tribe members to learn more about their culture, traditions and way of life in the bush (not included).
Meals: Breakfast, lunch and dinner at the truck today.
Overnight: Ozohere Camp - camping
Days 24
Cape Cross Seal Colony, Skeleton Coast
Leaving the Himba behind, we journey to the coast, arriving at Cape Cross Seal Reserve. A nature reserve that is renowned as one of the largest settlements of these animals in the world, the colony of Cape fur seals at Cape Cross marks the spot where the first European explorer set foot on the coast of Namibia in 1486. Kids can lose themselves in this noisy (and smelly!) hubbub, viewing the captivating interactions of the seal colony from an extensive walkway, separated from the mass of seals by a low wall. Strolling along the breadth of the colony, they have the opportunity to pick up interesting details about the lives of the seals at information points scattered around the grounds or gaze up at a modern replica of Diego Cao’s historical cross.
Continuing south along the Skeleton Coast, we arrive in Swakopmund, Namibia’s favourite holiday destination. With so many family and adrenaline activities as well as the beach it is easy to see why!
Meals: Breakfast & lunch at the truck. Group dinner included today.
Overnight: Amanpuri Lodge - rooms
Days 25
Free time in Swakopmund
This coastal resort is in complete contrast to all the land and river-based wildlife activities we have encountered so far. It offers the opportunity for families to hop onboard a catamaran cruise to spot dolphins, flamingos and even whales from Walvis Bay further down the coast, or kayak with playful and inquisitive seals at Pelican Point. Older kids will love the sand boarding, fat biking or the 4x4 or quad biking expeditions in the nearby dunes, allowing them to take to the wheel and explore. If adrenaline and sports are not your cup of tea the town offers plenty to see and do as well as numerous cafes, art galleries and museums to discover. You'll have the whole day free here to participate in optional activities of your choice.
Meals: Breakfast at the accommodation. Lunch, dinner & activities at your own expense.
Overnight: Amanpuri Lodge - rooms
Days 26
Swakopmund to the Desert
We drive south through the stark, remote landscape to our campsite for the night in a stunning desert location. We will venture into the Namib Desert with an expert guide who will give us fascinating insight into the wildlife that lives here. It’s not all about the Big 5, there are the Little 5 too! We’ll meet some of the smaller creatures of this unique place and learn how they are adapted to the desert environment. Maybe we’ll see the beetle that does a headstand every morning to allow the fog to condense on its back and run down to its mouth!
Meals: Breakfast at accommodation. Lunch & dinner at the truck.
Overnight: Bushman's Camp - camping
Days 27
Namib Naukluft, Sossusvlei & Deadvlei
Heading deeper into the desert, we enter the Namib-Naukluft National Park which contains the world’s highest sand dunes and is home to great salt pans at Sossusvlei and Deadvlei. These white salt pans surrounded by dunes and dotted with black, lifeless trees, hundreds of years old are stunning locations and provide amazing photo opportunities. We include a jeep safari here today, before camping inside the Park tonight where we can appreciate the dark skies and spot shooting stars in the glittering night sky.
Meals: Breakfast, lunch and dinner at the truck today.
Overnight: NWR Sessriem campsite - camping
Days 28
Dune 45 hike, drive to Windhoek
This morning, we have the opportunity to climb the massive dunes at Sossusvlei which are one of Namibia’s main attractions. Children can race their parents to the top where you will be met with stunning views of a ‘world of sand’ which stretches as far as the Atlantic, 50 miles away. The kids have the chance to whoosh back down, sliding down the sand which is always a popular choice as breakfast awaits at the bottom.
After breakfast we make the final journey of our family overland trip, leaving the deserts and mountains behind to reach Namibia’s capital, Windhoek. We'll then have a final evening celebrating our two week adventure with a group meal out.
Meals: Breakfast & lunch at the truck. Group dinner included today.
Overnight: Windhoek hotel/lodge - tbc

Mode of Transport
The Oasis truck will be your new home giving you a comfortable, secure base with which to experience your trip. As part of the adventure you will be expected to have an active involvement in the day to day running of the trip, be part of the group and get stuck in and help with various tasks, whether it's cooking meals over open fires, pitching your tent or keeping the truck clean and tidy. Seatbelts All Oasis Overland trucks are fitted with seatbelts. For your own safety and security we recommend that travellers wear these at all times whilst the vehicle is moving. Our overland trucks in Africa also have a 'beach area' which is a chill out zone to be used when the truck is not moving.
Accommodation
This tour has been designed to stay in a wide range of different accommodations to provide you with a good experience of exploring Africa in different ways. Camping - Oasis uses roomy three-person tents but only for two people. They are specially made for us to meet the tougher conditions of an overland trip and have mosquito netting sewn into the door and windows. Tents are shared (between two people of the same sex from your group unless you are a couple). We spend some nights bush or desert camping and the rest of the time in campsites. Facilities and standards at campsites vary, some are well equipped and managed and some are very basic. At bush camps you will be living off the truck, so there will be no showers or en-suite facilities! At certain campsites there is the opportunity to upgrade to a private room at your own expense if you are missing your bed. Lodges / Hostels - At some locations we will stay in lodges and hostels that are small, locally run establishments. The accommodation will vary depending on the rooming available, from dormitory style rooms, to twins/doubles or triple rooms. Upgrades may be available on arrival, but cannot be reliably pre-booked. Please refer to the individual trip inclusions for the percentage break up of your accommodation. Hotels / Permanent Camps - This tour also stays in a few higher standard lodges or permanent camps. These are very comfortable with good facilities, en-suite bedrooms and sometimes beautiful settings.
