As has been mentioned...research your trip, particularly for sites to see along the way.
I overland in a Defender 90 and I plan 250-300km a day. This allows for bad roads, site seeing, border crossing, and any surprises that may crop up.
It also allows me to be in camp by mid to late afternoon with plenty of daylight hours to setup, explore the site, relax with favourite tipple, and think about dinner. Also, for those days when I have to push it to 400-500km then Im physically able to do it. Doing long distances day after day is very much in the past for me.
