From mountain passes to bushveld plains.

FROM OUR TRAVELLERS

Their words. Our greatest reward.

We went on the Richtersveld tour and every day was awesome and full of surprises. Andre, the guide is extremely knowledgeable and we felt safe at all times in spite of a very rugged and challenging route. The tour was worth every sent and great value for money. This tour should be on the bucket list of every camper.

Unforgettable journey over 33 passes. Perfectly organized with great variety. We really enjoyed driving in convoy. Nice group of people, all travel with the same mindset. It is reassuring to know that if you break down there is help available. André , our guide, is a very knowledge man who has everything under control. Besides the fact that he teaches us a bit of history about the passes and Baviaanskloof, he is also a fun person with a good sense of humor. We look forward to our next trip with Waypoint.

Desert Dream is ń absolute moet! Vir ons as "1st timers" het ons soveel geleer en die lus vir meer avontuur aangewakker. Jean en Rolien se kennis, wysheid, trots, omgee en die liefde vir wat hulle doen spreek boekdele. Enige toer wat deur hulle span gereël word sal beslis niks anders as uit die boonste rakke wees nie💫

We have chosen Waypoint as our overland partner to Angola after an amazing experience with them in 2022 to Botswana, and they again exceeded our expectations. Well planned, perfectly executed, exceptional knowledge, no sweat to help and always friendly! They become more than just a service provider- they become friends!

i would highly recommend WA, their tours are never boring, filled with humour and adventure. The adventure is filled with beautifull scenic paths crossed and some challenges too but the guide helps each person they never leave you alone to tackle the path. I had a small concern with my trailer, Andre the guide helped me without a sweat.

Every tour planned to perfection. Waypoint Adventures not only offers you peace of mind when traveling into the unknown but an amazing overland experience that memories will live with you forever. Thank you Jean and Rolien for making our trip truly remarkable. A special thanx to Rolien for your caring and professional medical assistance. See you guys again soon.

Waypoint Adventures is our trusted travel partner. We would never consider traveling Africa without Juan and Roelien's knowledge and careful planning. They make it a absolute pleasure and give you peace of mind knowing you have the correct paperwork for boder crossings, vehicle and trailer recuirements for the roads you will encounter. Their knowledge of each park ensures the best sightings. Only Waypoint Adventues for us!

We joined the group for 33 Passes #22 in April 2025 The tour exceeded our expectations with Andre being the best of guides with his commitment,professionalism,skills,knowledge. He also did not fail to always be ready with a quick wit or joke. His positive attitude and love for his work make him a great asset for Waypoint Adventures We will definitely join again for another adventure! LET’S GO! Willem & Leonie vd Heever

We were fortunate enough to accompany the Waypoint Adventure team on the Tankwa Nothingness tour and boy oh boy were we awestruck by the sheer beauty of our country and the now family tour leaders.

24 Feb 2025

We did the Tankwa Nothingness tour with Andre. From meeting in Clanwilliam right to the end was a fantastic experience. we were taken to places we would have never explored on our own. Cannot wait for the next tour with Waypoint Adventures - 33 passes here we come!!!
