Road Trip Explorer is a new free service developed by Drive South Africa that helps road trippers document and research African road trip stories. Complete with routes, day-to-day itineraries, photos, and video, Road Trip Explorer aims to showcase the beauty and diversity of the African continent, inspire new road trippers, and make it easy to explore everything Africa has to offer, courtesy of travelers who’ve been there and done that.

You can even email your story to us at roadtripexplorer@drivesouthafrica.com

 

Africa’s a big place, so your story can help fellow travelers discover the highlights, plan their trips, and get to see parts of the continent they might never have known about otherwise.
