Overlanding vehicles in history have been everything from trucks to SUVs, camper vans to state-owned buses or cycles to motorbikes.
But we live in times with more technology at our disposal. Our vehicle stays true to the word for seasoned overlanders, yet makes overlanding expeditions a little less intimidating to those who are just getting started.
But the best part of it all? Our vehicle is a colourful, unassuming, sturdy, off-road capable TRUCK, with a personality of its own! From a self-help kitchen to a separate utility vehicle, washing machines to roof seats, charging points to top notch speakers and audio systems – we have you covered.
