General notes: This itinerary is liable to change at any time before or during the journey, due to the nature of the environment we will be traveling in.

Kitty does not cover food while staying in hotels and hostels or in Livingstone. There are breaks between sections in Istanbul, Cairo and Nairobi which are not covered by kitty, for further details refer to website and trip updates. The length of the break can affect the overall trip length.

Visas for this trip can take many weeks to be issued so book early. Central Asia visa support letters are included in the trip price. NB: These are not the actual visas. Visa costs are a separate to the trip price.

The Balloon Safari in the Serengeti must be pre-booked through the UK and is not always possible.

Please note: South of Nairobi, Dragoman Overland runs this trip in conjunction with Intrepid Overland. Intrepid share our ethos for overlanding and have many years' expertise in adventure travel. Our departures are codeshared, with certain departures run by Dragoman in one of our vehicles, others by Intrepid (Intrepid Guerba Kenya) in one of theirs. This allows us to run many more departures so you have more choice when you want to travel. You'll get the same itineraries, activities and accommodation on both Dragoman and Intrepid departures, and the vehicles of both fleets have been standardised to a common specification, so you won't be compromising on quality. All departures have three crew, including an African camp master. The only difference is that the Intrepid crew will all be African.
