Southern Circle African Safari April 2012

Post by JohanM »

Guys it is time again for me to hit the long raod early next year. Everybody is welcome to join in, even if it is only for a short part of the trip.

So far we are only 2x SFA Hiluxes (2.8D & 2.2EFi) that are going to be travelling up to Zim & back down via Botswana.

The route is circular and we are trying to see as much as possible without feeling rushed. We leave Louis Trichardt and Camp along the way and we wil lbe spending a total of 29 Days away from home. We are Leaving on the 31 March and returning home on the 28 of April 2012.

The routing is shortly as follows. Louis Trichard, Pundu Maria, Pafuri/Mapai, Gonerazhou, Lake Kyle & Great Zim ruins, Matsuadona National Park, Lake Kariba, Bumi Hills, Victoria falls, Chobe, Savuti, Moremi, Maun, Kubu Island, Central Kalahari Reserve, Khutse Reserve and back home via Zeerust.

Below is a picture of our planned route on T4A.

Now if anybody would like to participate in this trip, even if it is only for a short part, you can give me a shout as this is not a closed group tour, but rather an open holiday offer for all those with adventurous spirits that wanna see some less travelled routes.

See you guys in the bush!!

Johan, as alles reg uitwerk aan die kant vang ons jou dalk daar by Livingstone/Vic Falls en ry saam tot by Khutse. Van daar skiet ons deur na Mabua toe en deur die Kgalagadi huis toe..

Kom ons hoop my beplanning en tye werk reg uit.. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
