Looking for fellow-travellers - you can be part of our trip

Thank you all who travelled with us, it was great experience!

We are no longer looking for travellers, but still you can read our advert:

This way we would like to address travelers and adventurers who plan to go on holiday to destinations described below. We got the idea to connect pleasant with useful and meet another amazing people within our trip around the world. Therefore we have decided to look for fellow-travellers on the part of our trip when we want to rent a car and set out for a road trip. Why? It can save money to us and you, together we can experience something absolutely incredible and you can become a part of our trip for a while. And of course fun is not gonna be missing!  🙂

What we offer

• We have evincible knowledge 🙂 in planning,
• we can recommend you websites for cheap air-tickets,
• we can share with you some of our travel gear (cooker, utensils, water filter, alcohol bottle 🙂 ),
• we can also share with you interesting stories and create new ones together,
• exploring and getting to know new places, either commercial or noncommercial,
• you will become a part of our website and social network presentation,
• and of course we are gonna have so much fun together. 🙂

What we expect from you

• We are looking for 1-2 travellers who are not afraid of tramping – walking, camping, cooking outside, etc.,
• persistence to travel long hours in the car,
• easygoing personality, team player with willingness to help when necessary,
• you should be rather interested in museums, nature and historical places than clubs and discos,
• requirement is your willingness to share mutual expenses equally (car, toll, gas, entrances, etc..),
• we expect you do not mind traveling low-cost (does not mean eating dry bread and hitchhike 🙂 ),
• flexibility and comprehension for changes in the travel plan (for example because of time schedule, money or weather conditions).

What we would welcome

If we DON’T KNOW YOU PERSONALLY we would be happy if you could provide us with your references from Couchsurfing (=CS), Airbnb, Booking.com or any other similar website. Why we want this? Well it gives us a confidence that you are responsible and travellers we are looking for. If you are not at any of these websites but have a blog or a website it is okay too of course. We have also many references on CS we can show you. We take this step as a protection of trustworthiness for both sides.

But do not get sad in case you do not meet the requirements above. You can still contact us and all that matters is our personal speech (Skype). Skype call is a must for everyone who decideds to contact us. You can see us, we can see you and we can discuss details of our common travelling! 🙂

Where to travel with us

South Africa: Safari, Mountains, Beaches

Pavel did this trip around 7 years ago (photos here and around were taken by him) so he knows that african safari is great and he knows what to expect so he can answer any question. The trip will begin on 27.5. till 10.6.2016. In this time it is not hot so it is ideal time for watching animals because they are less in shadows and more in front of cameras 😉

Approximate travel plan (not neccessary in this order – itinerary can be changed anytime based on agreement in advance) :

• 27.5.2016 Friday – we will pick you up at the airport in Johannesburg and drive to Kruger National Park
• 28.5. Saturday – 1.6. 2016 Wednesday – Safari at Kruger National Park – watching animals (Elephants, Lions, Rhinos, Giraffes, Hippos, Zebras, Crocodiles, Monkeys,…) from very close distance – one of the most unique and memorable experience 😉
• 2.6.2016 Thursday  – we will leave the park and go to Sodwana Bay
• 3.6. Friday – 4.6.2016 Saturday – sunbathing and swimming on beautiful beach (it is possible to do diving/snorkelling at corals!)
• 5.6. 2016 Sunday – we will leave the beach and head in direction to St. Lucia
• 6.6.2016 Monday – visit of large group of Hippos at one place in St. Lucia (this point can be merged with Kruger National Park after agreement so we can have more time for animal watching in park where are also hippos 😉 )
• 7.6.2016 Tuesday – move to Golden Gate Highlands National Park
• 8.6. 2016 Wednesday – drive and walk in Highlands in Golden Gate Highlands National Park with similar views as are in New Zealand.
• 9.6. 2016 Thursday – drive in direction to Johannesburg
• 10.6. 2016 Friday – if there will be time, we can go to the city otherwise we will drop you on airport and return car.

General information:

• We want to go in 4 people maximum because of luggage.
• We would rent larger car based on number of passengers. For 3 persons some sedan for 4 persons something bigger.
• Approsimate length of trip might be over 2000 km based on https://goo.gl/5Ej2tt, but we should count rather more because of drives to campsites etc., so around 2500 – 3000 km.
• Costs for this trip will be significantly lower in comparison with any travel agency prices for similar trip! In other words you cannot see safari in Africa for better money 😉
• Approximate price drilldown so you have basic picture (details can be discussed with interested persons):
  • Costs per person if we go in 3 pax = Airplane ticket (based on where you fly from) + Transportation cca 210 USD + Accommodation cca 160 USD + Food cca 160 USD
• Costs per person if we travel in 4 persons will be logically even lower, especially Transportation.
• Sleeping will be in campsites (neccessary because of security reasons). We will sleep in our tent, you can do it as well if you bring your own equipment or you can sleep in  the car 😉 Of course you can pay something more for cabins, but then you have to count more for accommodation.
• We are not travel agency we are travellers. All costs for car rental, petrol, tolls, group entrance ticktets, etc. will be counted equally per person.

If you are interested in fellow-travelling please contact us through contact form.
