Nairobi-Capetown-Nairobi—The Route

View Our Travels in Africa in a larger map

We'll be heading off by car from Nairobi to South Africa and back to Nairobi starting May 1st. It should be a great trip. We won't have a set itinerary but the general idea is to travel south-west to Namibia west then south to Cape Town and back up to Mozambique. We hope to drive up the coast of Mozambique to Tanzania then back to Kenya. Everyone I speak to here in Kenya seems to have their favorite places that we have to see. Malawi and Zimbabwe have been mentioned a few times. Originally I was thinking of going from Tanzania to Zambia without going into Malawi and Zimbabwe my idea was less border crossings is better. Rebecca is worried about Zimbabwe. I'll have to be sure it's ok if we go there.
