The road to adventure starts here...

Welcome to GallivantingSA – your portal to adventure and overland travel in Southern Africa.

Whether you own caravan, motorhome, campervan, off-road trailer, roof-top tent or have a car and a tent, we have put together a diverse list of places for you to explore. If you have a favourite place that’s not listed, just use the “Add Listing” feature on the top right of this page to share it with the community.

Successful and enjoyable camping is not just about where you park your wheels for the night – we’ve included a guide to dealers and suppliers of specialised equipment to the camping community – again, we welcome additions to the list – just email us.

There’s advice on how to plan routes for those new to this way of life and the start of a library of routes that anyone can follow or adapt to their needs.  We welcome anyone to send us their favourite routes and tips – we’ll give you the credit too 

The foundation of a set-up and breakdown list and a packing list for those new to this life of adventure – just adapt it to your needs as you go along – we all have different quirks when it comes to what to like to travel with and how we do things.

We welcome feedback and contributions – this is a home for everyone in the overland travelling community – be you young and starting out or an “old-hand” who has been everywhere and done everything.

Use the Filters and Search options to find somewhere near for the weekend or plan your annual holiday vacation far from home – use the activities list and descriptions to find places that you and your travelling companions or family will enjoy.

Please add reviews for the places you’ve visited – up-to-date feedback from campers helps the entire community to make better decisions on where to spend their hard-earned money and well-deserved days off.

Camping, getting out there, being close to nature or the ocean are all good for your physical and mental health. 

Get out there and live your best life now.
