Overlanding as a way of experiencing the remote outdoors

Overlanding is a type of self-reliant travel and recreation that involves travelling across remote areas in a modified vehicle, typically an SUV or truck with four-wheel drive. Tourists who travel for overlanding purposes (overlanders) typically camp along the way, and their vehicles are equipped with all the necessary gear to support them, including food, water, fuel, and camping supplies.

Involving a mix of off-roading, camping, and adventure travel, overlanding is a great way to explore remote and beautiful places that would be inaccessible by car or other means. Overlanders often travel
to national parks, forests, and other public lands, but they may also venture onto private property with permission.

Overlanding With Bruce

Overlanding is a great way to explore the world, experience adventure, and connect with nature. In Zimbabwe, Overlanding With Bruce (OWB) has been notable in providing overlanding experiences for more than a decade now.

According to their website, OWB wants to be known as “not just your ordinary adventure rental company; we are passionate about providing unforgettable overlanding experiences in the stunning landscapes of Southern Africa.”

The company believes that adventure is a way of life, and is named after its founder, Bruce, a seasoned overlander with a deep love for exploration and a desire to share the beauty of Southern Africa with others. With years of experience and a wealth of knowledge, Bruce envisioned creating a company that would enable fellow adventure enthusiasts to embark on epic overlanding journeys with all the necessary equipment, support, and guidance.

They have a mission to ignite the spirit of adventure within the overlander and while offering the opportunity to experience the untamed beauty of Southern Africa like never before. “We believe that overlanding is not just about driving from one place to another; it’s about immersing yourself in diverse landscapes, encountering wildlife, connecting with local communities, and creating lifelong memories.”

OWB understands that every adventurer has unique preferences and desires. That’s why they offer custom-made adventures, tailoring itineraries to your specific interests, time constraints, and desired destinations.

Whether an overlander dreams of traversing the vast savannahs, conquering majestic mountains, or encountering the Big Five, OWB will work closely with them to design a personalized overlanding experience that exceeds their expectations.

“As a responsible adventure rental company, we prioritize sustainability and environmental stewardship. We advocate for minimal-impact camping, responsible waste management, and support local conservation initiatives. We believe in leaving a positive footprint in the places we visit and preserving the natural beauty for future generations to enjoy,” said the company website
