I appreciate this is primarily a North American forum but there are a few interlopers here So:
Anyone interested in joining us?
Still a vauge/flexible plan.
Spring 2020 with a group of a few other like minded people. It's a guided tour (So there is a cost of around £400/ week. I have no financial interest in this, some friends are leading the trip. They've been on the toad for 5 plus years so know the score when it comes to border crossings, visa's or places to avoid etc.)
Nothing too fixed in stone yet.
Leave Mid Jan from Spain to Morocco. From there head straight to Mauritania, not too quickly though. Begining of Feb into Mauirtania for 2 weeks. Counties to visit after that Mali, South Senegal, Guinea Bissau, Guinea Conakry, Burkina Faso, Ivory Coast, Togo and Ghana. The plan is around 3 weeks in each country, but this is flexible. Little side excusions on the way too. Camping (When Available!!!) or we wild camp. Or Church Missions, gardens of Hotels etc. It's possible to arrange shipping back from Togo and fly back if time is an issue.
We need to be back in the UK for mid April so we may store the van somewhere safe and fly back from The Gambia as there are loads of nice easy and relatively cheap flights available.
This isn't a full on off road wacky races trip!! It's a nice and steady overland trip.
