About overland tour trucks
Overland trucks are beasts! They battle through all weather conditions and over very hostile terrain.
List of the best overland and adventure tour companies
All companies operate different types. Here's what to look for:
- Hard top or soft top
- Hard sides or soft sides
- Game viewing/roof seats - and good views from all seats
- Benches or soft seats

People prefer different things from over-landing - each wanting to fulfill their own preconceived experiences.
Some prefer to take the ultra-budget option knowing that breaking down or being stranded for days at a time is part and parcel of the experience - others (especially those with a limited time away) need the security of knowing backup is not too far away.
Remember - don't forget your travel insurance if you're planning on going on an overland tour!
