sa4x4’s official tour operator, Ultimate adventures, has expanded its tour line-up with four luxury expeditions, adding to its industry-leading range of trips. the addition of new tour leader laurent Changuion has freed simon and desiree steadman up to focus on longer, more decadent adventures. We spoke to simon to find out more.
So, what’s new?
In addition to being longer than standard Adventure Tours, the Prestige Tours offer both breakfast and dinner, both prepared by the masterful Chef Esrom. There are also more activities on offer, and a higher standard of luxury with lodge and guesthouse accommodation. “One of the biggest drawcards on the Prestige Tours,” says Simon, “is the fact that they are limited to a maximum of four vehicles, as we have found that some of our clients prefer the smaller groups.”
Who should be excited?
