Dragoman Overland Offers Thrilling Overland Adventure Travel Package...

Dragoman Overland'ss Africa music festival packages are overland travel adventures like no other. The first leaves Johannesburg on 26th September and finishes in Lilongwe on 12th October - it'ss a 21 day overland adventure travel package not to be missed by music lovers. The second is an overland travel trip through West Africa taking in drumming workshops, a canoe ride and culminating in the extraordinary Festival on the Niger. These Africa music festivals on wheels are a real adventure, with two overland trucks rolling into the music festival sites - one containing the bands and film crew, and the other the music loving festival goers.



The company'ss director Charlie Hopkinson believes these are Africa music festival highlights not to be missed: The West Africa music festival scene is quite widely known outside of the continent, but the Festival on the Niger remains quite an undiscovered gem. Likewise, Southern Africa music festivals like the Lake of Stars are virtually unheard of outside of the continent he said. Hopefully these packages, along with the thrill of overland adventure travel, will allow our customers to understand just why we hold them in such high regard.



Combining Western artists with acts from all over east and Southern Africa, the fourth Lake of Stars music festival takes place from 5th-7th October. This 3-day charity Africa music festival has already featured class acts such as Felix B (Basement Jaxx) and Groove Armada'ss Andy Cato, plus many others. This year'ss exciting music festival line-up includes Gilles Peterson (BBC Radio One / Worldwide), Annie Mac (BBC Radio One), Rob Da Bank (BBC Radio 1/Bestival), along with Joe Driscoll, Stuart Patterson and various local Malawian, South African and Mozambiquean acts.



But it wouldn'st be Dragoman Overland if it was all about the music of Africa - touring the continent and getting there is half the fun, and with stops in Mozambique and Zambia there'ss time to take in beaches, nightclubs, bars and wildlife along the way! A 3000km road trip up the Indian Ocean to Malawi awaits the music lovers who take this adventure travel package. Traveling with the bands for much of the journey, Dragoman Overland will stop en route at small settlements and large cities, showing the real Africa that the tourists miss out on.



When the music stops, the African adventure travel is not over, as we travel to Zambia and the South Luangwa National Park for three days of game viewing - a great opportunity to get really close to the animals usually only seen from in front of a television screen. With four African countries covered, plus a fantastic Africa music festival and cultural events en route, this really is the most exciting way to travel to any music festival. Alternatively, just lug your tent and Wellington boots up the M4 to Glastonbury.



The Lake of Stars music festival package costs just £1,000 per person, including all overland adventure travel costs, hotel and camp accommodation, all camp meals, ticket to Lake of Stars Music Festival, entry fees and game drives in South Luangwa National Park; visit to Kawasa Community project and the expertise of Dragoman Overland'ss crew. Flights are not included but are available through Dragoman Overland from £600.
