    Thanks for the wonderful ride! What magnificent country and people! Do you have a map or a track route of your travels? I’m aways wondering where the hell I’m at in beautiful Africa. Thanks again.

    Dit was nou 'n moerse nice trip vid gewees Werner. :clap. Jy kan regtig nou nie net die video wys en nie 'n detailed trip report ook gee nie.

    For the non speaking Afrikaans people. I have congratulated Werner on a very nice trip report by means of video, but also asked him to do a detailed trip report for us with words, photo's and some Theuns Jordaan music in between....:rofl:rofl:rofl.....

    Haha, dankie Riaan!

    The detailed trip report is on iTunes. Unfortunately, at this stage, iBooks are not available for South African account holders. Thank you Apple:(

    Great trip! We are dreaming of doing one from Kampala to Cape town so I bought the book. I was disappointed there was no budget information in the trip planning section. Any chance this is available? Thanks.

    Hi Sillychap. I thought it best to leave the budget section out as things like exchange rates and oil prices fluctuate and increase quite rapidly these days. It's crazy how the rand has dropped against major currencies the last couple of months. But I will send you a pm with some sort of a summary of the trip costs for what its worth.
