“If you want to go quickly, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.”
Tofaraa Expeditions gives you the keys to freedom with fully equipped 4×4 vehicles — rooftop tents, long-range fuel tanks, fridges, gas bottles, cookware, and all the essentials you’ll need when venturing off the beaten path. All vehicles come with the necessary paperwork for smooth, cross-border travel.
Choose between two ways to explore:
Self-Drive Expeditions are for the truly independent traveller. Plan your own route and set your own pace. We supply the vehicle — and if needed, assist with route planning and campsite bookings.
Guided Expeditions take things further. Drive with the support of an expert guide, your own chef, and all meals and drinks included. We handle the admin and logistics — you focus on the road, the wildlife, and relaxing under the stars with a Gin & Tonic in hand.
Go full bush with a camping-only setup, or mix it up with hand-picked luxury lodges for the perfect blend of rugged adventure and refined comfort.
There’s something uniquely rewarding about days spent deep in the wild, followed by the simple luxury of a hot shower, a soft bed — and being completely pampered.
Camp only in designated campsites.
Always sleep inside your tent, rooftop tent, or vehicle — never with arms or legs sticking out.
Do not camp or sleep on bridges or along animal paths, especially those used by elephants or hippos.
Use rubbish bins at campsites. If none are available, take your waste with you until the next town.
Cigarette butts must be completely extinguished and disposed of properly — never tossed on the ground.
Avoid swimming or drinking from still water — bilharzia can be a serious risk.
Ensure your campfire is fully out after use. Smother with sand if necessary.
Supervise children at all times. Never leave them alone, and never let them nap on the ground or in the open.
Do not stray far from camp or walk in the bush unless accompanied by a qualified guide.
In the Okavango Delta and other wildlife-rich areas, do not swim in streams or lagoons due to the presence of crocodiles or hippos.
Drive on the left side of the road. Remain alert of wild animals and livestock at all times
Speed limits:
• 120 km/h on tarred roads
