DRC Lubumbashi - Kinshasa
Hi
We are travelling from Lubumbashi to Kinshasa early june next year and just putting the word out now to see if anyone is keen to team up.
I work for an English based overland company (Oasis overland) and will be in a 4x4 overland truck with about 20 passengers, as far as we know no other commercial overland company has attempted this route so we have no idea how long it will take or the exact route that trucks take,we are very aware that it will be difficult in a truck, But we (my mrs and I) have done 7 london to cape town trips for oasis before and been through Angola 5 times now so looking for something different.
Anyone keen to team up, either on a bike or 4x4 would be welcome,Bikes would be welcome to put luggage,fuel,spares or pillions on the truck if interested, we will work out a price according to how much we carry, Could put money towards food and eat meals with us,we carry a lot of food on board as well as 450 lts of water.
Please note this is not an add ,just that in the 15 years we have done overland trips in africa it has always been fun to meet up with other travellers and help each other out in tough conditions.
Also note we are in a big truck so do get stuck a lot , but its amazing how much work 20 people can do to a road when needed !!!
We are in Ethiopia at the moment, about to finish a 9 month trip in Cairo,but will be in Uk from sept so will be in email contact more easily.
Thanks Grant
