16 africa introduction Overland travel through Africa is a unique way of exploring this most alluring of continents. Dragoman Overland will show you Africa's many faces, not just the wildlife but also the people, the remote places and the everyday world of modern Africa. The south of the continent is now opening up for mainstream tourism but we will get you beyond those fringes into the local communities. The bonus that tourism brings should not be underestimated, great campsites, hotels, bars, restaurants and wild adventure activities such as white water rafting the Zambezi. The locals benefit too and Dragoman Overland's responsible tourism policy means that we work very closely with local communities to ensure that they benefit from our visit. We help build schools, visit local community projects and buy stuff direct from the people. Further north and west in the continent, the tourism infrastructure is very minimal and that's where Dragoman Overland, with our ethos of pioneering and self-reliance, really come into our own. We can take you through areas where few other operators would even dream of travelling and show you things that will leave a lasting impression. You'll find it's tough going home.
