| hi ive been serously looking into doing the overland bus tour from london to sydney wiv www.uktooz.com, takes 24wks wks and goes through france, germany, czech republic, hungary, romania, turkey, azerbijan krygyzstan, uzbekistan, china, tibet, laos, vietnam, thailand, cambodia malaysia, singapore, indonesia then australia (darwin through outback to sydney) it costs £3500 wich includes ur food, accom n travel etc + £1500 kitty to pay to tour leader. which i dnt fink is a bad price for 6mths considetrin u can pay at least 1200 just to do an outback tour in oz.

Hey I have been looking into and researching the London to Oz overland trip myself sounds awesome a real adventure and such a achievement to accomplish . I begun by looking into the ozbus but questioned the length of the trip seemed a bit too quick . I have since discovered exploratory overland expeditions (EOE) and odyssey overland which both offer longer trips athough costing more than the ozbus . EOE offer a 32 week trip for 6000 although they also have a 16 and 24 week trip at a reduced price . Odyssey overland offer a 26 week trip for 5000 . I have been seriously looking into the EOE trip for a while but im now looking into undertaking a independant trip with no set plan and no time constraints would this be something u would consider yourself . |

I am pretty much set on the Trans Africa experience advertised on the home page of this website. About 5 grand with kitty for a 9 1/2 month overland Gibralta to Captown and back trip  sounds more appealing although it will tally up when they recommend a £120-£140 a week budget on top.... even though accomodation (tents) and food is included. So best part of 10 grand, looks like I will be saving hard for a year :p |

Done a bit of research then thought jumping in might be better so thats what i done  |
