There's nothing else like this out there - where you get to be a part of learning how to drive and adventure in such an incredible place and not simply being a 'passenger'.

The most important thing to know is the ethos of the adventure... 

This is way more exciting, raw and real than the usual 'safari' experience!

It's a fully immersive, active participation expedition where you will be a part of its success. 

You will learn to drive 4x4 in some real bush terrain; learn how to stay safe in this environment; how to set up camp; how to be part of everyday adventure life -  you will be cooking, driving, making fire...all the pieces that make up a real adventure. 

“This is for those craving an authentic experiential challenge and sampling a different way of life.”

Charlotte Fowles, Founder

About

When I conceived this idea years ago, I trademarked the name 'The Confidence Convoy™'. Whenever we do these adventures, people usually return to their lives with a renewed sense of confidence in themselves, having done things they never before thought we would, and with evidence of some incredible things they have done.

This is a full-expedition 16 day adventure experience through some of the world's most stunning Zimbabwean wilderness and National Parks areas with an exclusively small group of 6 guests.

Learning to drive the 4x4 vehicles, wildlife/'safari' drives; camping, exploring via walking as well as vehicles (which is a rare experience); coming face-to-face with endangered wildlife and a full immersion in this utterly wonderful world. 

You will experience world-renowned and remote areas such as Mana Pools (featured on the BBC documentary series 'Dynasty'); Chitake Springs; Matusadonna, Matopos Hills; Hwange and Victoria Falls. We will start from Harare and travel through these areas, ending with a final night in luxury at the mesmerising Victoria Falls...which is somewhere I never get tired of seeing.

Our incredible guide, Graeme, will be teaching you all about the environment, its beauty and power and its unpredictability. Graeme is a passionate conservationist and will take all necessary measures to ensure that we stay safe and have a wild time, whilst protecting the environment and minimising our impact whilst we are there. 

You will have moments that will stay with you as long as you live. That I will guarantee. 

It is the full immersive and learning aspects that make this so special - THIS is what makes a difference to you in a way that lasts. Your confidence and self-belief is increased by the level of involvement that doesn’t exist when you’re simply joining a holiday. Research shows us that being involved in adventures benefits us in a number of ways, and increased confidence and resilience are a large part of this. As one person said after our trip to Zimbabwe:

“This has changed my life”.

To book, we will schedule a pre-chat - as this is a real adventure, let's make sure you get your questions answered and we get to know each other a bit first.
