A bucket list drive through Africa and Europe.
Two South African rugby fans drive from Newlands to Twickenham to witness the 2015 Rugby World Cup. This absorbing read – it’s a travel book with an oval shaped heart – reveals their varied experiences on the road. Not only does it contain many adventures and humorous stories but it’s also well illustrated and includes useful information on routes, distances travelled, places to stay, to eat, pitfalls to avoid, as well as detailed budgets and actual costs incurred. This is a must-read for everyone interested in overlanding through Africa. What an amazing way to get to a rugby game!
I am greeted by the petrifying sight of thirty or sixty or seventy buffalo looming large at a distance, each of them staring at me. Just staring would be okay; I could handle that. But these are also coming at me.

If it weren't for Peter, they surely would have trampled me to death. Fortunately, he recollects himself just in time to yell at me to get my ass behind the tree.
