Spectacular!
The CAMINO ADVENTURE TRIP was soul stirring and spectacular and sensational too.
Discovering the Trappist Monk’s monasteries in KwaZulu Natal and the Free State is something very special indeed.
So much history and beauty and substance to share.

The Big Dog Adventure Tours difference… not just a motorcycle trip.

The time has come to catch that narrow window of opportunity to get out into the desert and find the awesome spectacle of desert flowers completely covering the desert that was there a few days before...

This season we will need to sit this one out.
😔 Sadly we have not been able to fill the trip to Namaqualand this year, but we are looking forward to the NEXT ADVENTURE that will be taking in as many amazing sights and sounds and tastes to create those life-long memories on a 4x4 or Motorcycle Adventure with Big Dog's Adventure Tours & Safaris.

Watch this space for more...
More good times to come!

Plan my weekend adventure day...

Weekend plans are being made and we all love to get out there on our motorcycles when we can, and hopefully add some adventure to our lives again.

Adventure is out there... make sure you go get some.

We're getting ready to make more memories on our bikes and to get out into the big open spaces in the next few weeks.

Scenic Beauty

Not the kind of stuff you see everyday right? Take a look around after you've been riding for a few hundred kilometers and you get to see the true beauty of a country and get to meet her people.
Taking the long way home and taking a few moments to take it all in like this makes a trip become a real memory that lasts a lifetime.
Dirt roads make for great memories. Best shared with good friends.

We're getting ready to make more memories together in the next few weeks.

Stopping to smell the roses, or rather the Aloe blossoms on route through the Free State and into Kwa-Zulu Natal. Quick stops to stretch the legs and get the smoke breaks done are always more interesting when the Big Dog tells you all about the local flora and fauna as we go. This stop was cool because we got to pump some water too as we did the #CAMINOAdventureTrip earlier this year. Come see some spectacular flowers in the desert with us in September!
