点评:The most amazing trip going from Nairobi to Cape Town. The best section was Nairobi to Victoria Falls. The scenery and animal encounters were more than I ever expected. Lions and cubs just a few feet away, a family of elephants walking past the truck and the vastness of Victoria Falls.
Expect long days on the truck, which is noisy and realise you are with the same people 24/7 for many days. The camping is basic with your own camping mat and a cooking rota is set up where you have to help shop and take turns in cooking. The budget for food is not huge but all the meals were tasty.
Most of the time the windows on the truck were rolled up and we could kneel on the seats and look out.
The people we passed were fascinating, seeing people selling goods at the side of the road or the crowds in Zanzibar.
All the activities were brilliant. A village walk or rafting the Zambezi, learning about spices and having an evening cruise. All activities are organised, you just have to put your name down.
Lastly the crew of the truck, Alex and Often were so kind. They always asked if I was ok and helped with any questions. They were also funny even at 5am!
翻译:从内罗毕到开普敦的旅程真是太棒了。最精彩的一段是从内罗毕到维多利亚瀑布的路程。沿途的风景和与动物的邂逅都超出了我的预期。几英尺外就能看到狮子和幼崽,一群大象从卡车旁走过,还有浩瀚的维多利亚瀑布。
准备好在卡车上度过漫长的一天吧,那里很吵,而且要知道,你很多天都是一天24小时和同样的人在一起。露营很简单,你需要自带露营垫,还会有轮班表,你需要帮忙采购和轮流做饭。伙食费不高,但每顿饭都很美味。
大多数时候,卡车的窗户都摇起来了,我们可以跪在座位上向外看。
我们遇到的人们都很迷人,看到人们在路边售卖商品,或者看到桑给巴尔的人群。
所有的活动都很棒。乡村漫步,赞比西河漂流,了解香料,以及夜间乘船游览。所有活动都安排好了,你只需要报上名就行了。
最后,卡车司机 Alex 和 Many 人都非常好。他们总是问我是否还好,并帮助我解答任何问题。即使是凌晨 5 点,他们也总是很有趣!
