Africa Travel Co

General information

1/. Africa Travel Co is an African based company and therefore very “hands on” with what is happening in the countries we travel through.

2/. We are the ONLY overland tour company to have 3 operational bases in Africa: Nairobi, Victoria Falls and Cape Town. Therefore we have unparalleled support to our passengers and crew, should it be required.

3/. Our ATC scheduled camping trips are accompanied by 3 crewmembers, a mechanically sound driver, enthusiastic and knowledgeable trip leader and a safari chef with an extensive and varied bush menu.

4/. We have an enormous frequency of guaranteed, scheduled departure dates operating in a Northbound and Southbound direction, which offers continuous sales opportunities for agents.

5/. We have scheduled trips to choose from, ranging from 5 days to 56 days. Therefore we have something that will suit every clients need when it comes to adventure travel.

6/. We do not have an upper age limit and will happily carry any client suitably fit for adventure travel and camping although we do require a doctor’s note if you are over 60.

7/. Our trips are great value for money without giving away quality. Our tiered pricing structure ensures our client’s save on entries, camping, National Park fees & their food kitty as this is calculated into their local payment.
