Tips for choosing a Drifters Tour
Drifters offer a range of expertly guided camping and accommodated tours that strike the perfect balance between comfort, community and connection with the land.
Pioneer Tours
For true wilderness lovers — get hands-on, travel in custom adventure trucks, camp under canvas, help set up camp and cook meals with your group, and soak up raw, immersive experiences deep into Africa’s wildest terrain.
Explorer Tours
Adventure + comfort. You still explore remote destinations and travel in rugged trucks, but nights are in lodges or guesthouses. No camp chores required — just relax, explore, and enjoy the journey.
Traveller Tours
The gentler pace. With small groups (usually ≤ 8), upgraded accommodation, and no on‑camp duties, this style is ideal for travellers who want to experience Africa with a bit more ease and comfort.
