Africa Budget Safaris | African Tours

Travel Africa overland on the safari adventure of your lifetime!

We use specially converted and totally equipped Safari Overland Adventure trucks that can carry up to 30 people comfortably. The trucks can carry enough fuel, food and water to allow us to offer adventures off the beaten track and away from civilisation if necessary.

This style of Africa Safari Travel has been tried and tested and it is without doubt the safest, most sociable and cost effective way to have an Affordable African Safari Holiday in areas where public transport, roads, personal security and finding accommodation can be difficult or even hazardous.

Africa Travel | Discount Overland Safaris

Amazing Africa tours and adventure safaris designed for any budget.

Our Africa Adventure Travel leaders are all trained mechanics and are experienced drivers. They are there for advice and help during the trip and have a good knowledge of the areas we are travelling through.

However, they are not tour guides and so at many sights we use local guides for a more detailed and in-depth view of the places we are visiting.

African Trails operates with one crew member as we believe this is more beneficial to people who join us on our Safari Adventure Holidays. It makes them more involved in the day to day running of the trip and also gives them more personal independence. People come to Africa to experience it; but may fail to do so when a tour leader is constantly organising everything for them. Our Africa Budget Safari trips encourage people to be proactive, to go out into the markets to do the shopping, interact with locals or maybe organise an additional side trip. We feel that this gives a much more complete experience and will ultimately make your Overland Safari far more memorable.

Africa Camping Adventures | Game Parks

African safari and overland adventure experts - who we are.

African Trails has been running Discount Africa Travel Safaris and Overland Camping Adventures in Africa since 1980. Such were the success of these Budget Africa Travel Tours that, in the early nineties, we expanded into the Middle East.

We aim to provide Cheap Adventure Holidays in Africa and our low prices are maintained by keeping our overheads at a minimum whilst not cutting costs on our service or equipment provided. You will benefit from the services of a trained crew, well maintained vehicles and equipment. We feel it is important that everyone gets the most out of their journey and we encourage you to get involved in all aspects of the expedition.

We currently run 34 different African and Middle East Adventure Tours regularly; covering 26 countries with a departure for most trips every month. Our Budget Adventure Safaris range from our 6 day Gorilla trip to our epic 43 week Trans Africa overland - London to Istanbul via Capetown.

Overland Africa Safaris | Cheap Rates

Budget overland adventures - who's on the trip.

The majority of our Budget Africa Safari passengers are in their 20's and 30's and although we do not operate an age restriction, you would need to be in good health, reasonably fit, and of like-minded spirit and attitude.

There is no particular type of person that comes on our Discount Overland Adventure Tours. Our passengers decided on an overland tour as an easier, safer, cheaper and more enjoyable way to see the best of Africa or the Middle East. Some travel in groups but many travel as individuals as it is a great way of meeting people. Some have travelled extensively and others are travelling for the first time. If you want fun and adventure and wish to participate in day to day activities of the tour, such as drawing water from wells, buying food in local markets and meeting friends for life then our trips are for you. africa travel

All that we require from you is that you be in general good health, keep an open mind and have a willingness to get involved in Africa travel adventures. For more in-depth information, read Africa Travel Overland - a day in the life
