Africa expedition

[Dak]

Josh,

 

i'm trying to do it mega cheap cause i'll be there for 3 months and its going to be a financial struggle so hotels, fancy game lodges are out the question.... its not real africa anyway!!

 

I need to speak to Drew on what he's got in mind as far as destinations etc as this could change my idea's drastically..

 

I'm going to try and budget on £1500-2k ex flights for 2-3weeks. That's based on 4x4 hire (kitted out camping wise), fuel, camping costs (wild camp were possible) and food and drink.

 

I receive the final list of trees on roughly 19th Dec so planning will kick in properly and i can get a better idea for you.

 

Hopefully we can reduce costs by borrowing 4x4s etc etc.

 

Accommodation in cape town/joburg will most likely cost you a 6 pack of beer as friends will put us up where they can.

 

Its to early to give an exact estimate yet sorry!

Sounds cool, what sort of numbers people wise are you looking at?

[Dak]

Limited...

 

At this point in time only space for 1 more. Can't have 30's of us trooping around Shame its somewhere i'd love everyone to go at least once in their life.
