Our crew are passionate about travel and always up for adventure, it takes someone special to become a Dragoman leader. Our crew undergo the most intensive training program of all overland companies, spending two months learning the ropes at our base in Suffolk, UK, then up to six months on the road as a trainee or co-driver. Having completed that, we know they are ready for anything!

Each trip is run by a minimum of two Dragoman crew. Their role is multi faceted -they are responsible for the group's safety, well being and enjoyment. Plus they have the overland truck to drive and maintain. In addition to this we employ local guides on our trips. In east and southern Africa all trips have a local camp master who's role includes cooking the group's meals. And in Asia we have country specific local guides, helping us with language and providing insightful local information. Our leaders cover wide geographical areas as part of their job, a typical trip could take them from Istanbul to Cape Town covering 13 countries. To ensure our passengers get the best in local knowledge we also employ local guides at sights of interest.
