4X4 Trail Tours

If you are looking for the most fun that you can have on four wheels try a 4x4 tour from Off Road Adventures! These tours will see you traverse rugged terrain, scale near vertical sand dunes, race through rivers and make your way down gorges and valleys. Off-road tours can be incredible adventures, exposing the participant to untamed areas and variety of wildlife. Off Road Adventures can take you on guided tours or you can elect to self-drive and discover a new way of exploring the country.

You can explore and travel across virtually any terrain with a 4x4. While most vehicles will get stuck in sandy conditions such as in the desert, a 4x4 can be manipulated in a way that will allow you to get the vehicle unstuck. Likewise, if the vehicle becomes stuck in mud or snow, it can usually be manoeuvred to firm ground without having to be towed out. This factor makes these vehicles ideal for game watching, as the terrain in game reserves ranges from sand to mud to mountain and possibly even snow in some areas.

South Africa is a very diverse country that offers beach-, mountain-, grassland-, forest- and desert terrain that is just waiting to be encountered, explored and conquered. Off Road Adventures offers tours through the spectacular Sani Pass - the third highest gravel road pass in the world, as well as an overnight tour of Lesotho. Experience river crossings, technical riding, obstacles and open roads that are just waiting to be discovered.

And if you choose Off Road Adventures as the operator of your awesome off road tour, you will be able to include a host of other adventure activities in your tour as well. From pony and horse rides along the Twelve Apostles at the Drakensburg Mountains, to abseiling this and other awesome sites; as well as cycling, floating down rivers in inflatable tubes, fishing and more await you. Experience a hunting safari as part of your 4x4 tour – there is a large selection of plains game available for bow- or file hunting, as well as a wide variety of birds for wing shooting. So if you are looking for the most thrilling 4x4 tour available, contact Off Road Adventures and experience a specialised 4x4 adventure.
