Across the Sahara by Land Rover to West and Central Africa (Part 1) 

Oh man I want to do this one day. If only they built Land Rovers like this still! Thank you guys for showing us the way and what's possible!

What an awesome experience it must have been. Even to put together a group of six people with the same goals and spirit of adventure is quite rare. On top of it, they show incredible driving and sustenance skills. The narrator's matter-of-fact storytelling is quite enjoyable as well.

...yep...you lads DID IT...this is the way to see a lot of the Sahara. I did IT in a VW '73 camper ,staying to the hard tops and hard gravel..tho we did get stuck but with no sand ladders we had English lads pull us out. We came in from Tunisia...down thru Ghardaia, Quaglia, El Golea and out thru Bechar to Morocco. We spent the entire winter in those 3 countries in '75. Loved Algeria.... Best experience of my life ! Wife and I ...alone................................

Anyone can do the journey - just takes a bit of determination! But thanks for your comment, and glad you have enjoyed our videos.

A fantastic video. Thanks for posting. I done a similar trip in 1993 down from London to Dar-Es -Salaam.Down the west coast to Nouakchott and then across the centre of Africa. Your video brings back memories.

The Land Rovers were 1993 2.5 litre diesel turbo tdi models. Our first journey was in 1993, followed by ten further journeys through to 2002. The vehicles were eventually sold to an adventure tourism company in Ulan Bator, Mongolia - where they may well still be operating..

Watching in November, 2022. I did more or less the same trip in 1988. I got a bit of dysentery and spent a night in hospital in Tamanrasset, quite the experience and the story still gets told to this day. Great to see the footage, brings back lots of memories.

Mate.... Paradise defined is taking a landrover exactly where they're supposed to go. Good work, and you've made me insanely jealous.

Enjoyed watching your 3 part videos..... from someone who has also made a similar journey. In 1975, myself, my wife, and 7 year old son hitchhiked across Africa. we started on a freighter in NY bound for Casablanca and traveled through Algeria, Niger, Nigeria, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Bangui into Zaire, 3 days on the riverboat from Lisla, then from Kisangani to Goma, Rwanda, Tanzania, to Nairobi. We took rides where we could find them. The crossing of log bridges made me remember the travels across Zaire. We settled and got jobs in Nairobi and stayed for 20 months. I am working currently on a coffee table book of this family affair across the beautiful continent of Africa.

Thanks very much for these excellent presentations, as they are certainly a wonderful experience being shared by you guys. Furthermore you certainly are making others very green with envy and jealousy. Thanks very much

Great journey and beautiful presentation 👍

Fantastic stuff. I'm taking my BMW M2 from the UK to Pretoria, SA next April. Google Maps found a route straight through the Sahara and it looks like a decent road now so should be a lot of fun 😊

Awesome adventure!

it wasn't all that safe when we did the trip, but certainly a lot more dangerous in the central Sahara over the last few years. Understand route through Mauritania is still OK though. Such wonderful places to visit, can only hope free travel does become possible again eventually ....

I would like to do that journey

Thanks mate truly awesome journey and inspiring. I've just taken the first step purchasing a cruiser 105 series to kit out and hopefully oneday find your tracks....

First I thought that's a video of ASPW, as your voice sounds quite similar. But then I saw Landies. So, I'm relaxed and stopped worrying about another Totoya ad 😊

Fantastic documentary reminds me of the Leyland Brothers

Not at all. We sold them in Ulan Bataar in Mongolia for a solid roll of US$ notes to be used for Gobi Desert trips! (Just back in New Zealand yesterday from driving the very attractive coast road from San Francisco to LA - we are more sedate in our travelling now!)

Great proper offroading adventure

Excellent, but where’s part 2 and 3

Subscribed! 👍

Thanks for the compliment. We're still travelling!

💛💛

Great going for kiwis. Why don't you make a trip to India. My second home is Art Deco City Napier. It will be great to host like minded travellers in Incredible India.

une Afrique Qui n'est Peut etre pas Celle Dont Vous Pensiez......Mais Qui Pourrait Très Bien Vous Faire Réver.... Un Jour !

More like a land cruiser advertising

I'm enjoying the videos. Did you end up putting limited-slip diffs in the 110s? I've had Land Rovers (discos and a '74 s3 88), and I was always surprised that so many fans of the marque didn't install such valuable tools. Detroit truetracs were my choice -- a gear-driven lsd like a quaife.

Is the car land rover's defender?

Thanks for the offer, we were in fact lucky enough to visit your incredible country, video is on RU-vid as 'Morocco to Mongolia Part 4' ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SzkxlVJsoP0.html
