Saludos desde brazaville, por fin llego.
Mas que un camion vivienda parezco un hostal con ruedas, porque voy recogiendo a toda alma perdida, pensaba que iba a seguir solo,pero ando con un japones "yu" un brasileño "pepe pedales", y una salmantina; que así me aligeran el presupuesto, y de paso conoces gente;tambien se unio una pareja de albacete con su mitsubishi "miki", que no se manejaban mucho con el 4x4 y me siguieron para pasar un tramo de pistas.
total que aqui estamos en el l´hipocampe que "es gratuit" como dicen los franceses.( al lado de la post central)

Intentamos pasar el sabado la frontera y despues de pasar todos los controles, en el barco hacia kinsasa no cabia ni un alfiler, asi que el lunes temprano saldremos, informaros que los barcos para coches salen los lunes, miercoles y viernes. generalmente. aunque otros dias podrias embarcar es mas complicado. el domingo no hay nada.
el camion me salio por unos 70.000 cefas. negociando. y en la entrada a la frontera no hay que pagar nada aunque os pediran.
En unos dias estare en Matadi.

Roads
Border (Matadi) - Tomboco, via Mepala
Narrow earth track, bumpy but soft in places, little used so fairly easy
Tomboco - Nzeto
Worst road in history, 100% potholed hell. Once was tarmac, now is potholed or slushy mud. Beware of the puddles/potholes of tothe sides they can be deep (see photos)
Nzeto - Luanda
Starts as badly potholes tarmac / gravel road, gets a little better towards Luanda. New tarmac starts around Caxito toward Luanda.
Luanda - Lobito, via Sumbe
Smooth tarmac to Sumbe. After Sumbe tarmac becomes a bit potholed with the odd muddy section, but it seams there are attempts, by the Chinese, to resurface.
Lobito - Bentiaba
Good tarmac south to Baia Farta then potholed tarmac to Dombe Grande. South from here is rocky/gravel track that crosses rivers, has very steep rocky ascents and descents and the odd corrugated sandy section in the valleys. generally slow and painful but very beautiful. From Lucira, heading south, there is potholed tarmac.
Bentiaba - Lubango
A few km's south of Bentiaba the new tarmac starts, its a dream, long smooth straights. Just watch out for the suicide birds. The road north from the Namibe junction to Lubango is even better, road marking and all. The climb up the side of the plateau is steep but beautiful
Lubango - Namibia Border (Oshikango)
The road to the border starts ok but quickly deteriorates, soon after Chibia its very potholed, still better than north of Luanda though. Look out for the odd side track, these can be just as slow, because of the mud, but its a lot nicer on the car and nerves. Improves from time to time south of Chama. From Xangongo to Ondjiva is under massive resufacing and widening so should be very good soon. South from Ondjiva to the border is great, 120km/h speed limit and if your car can do it you can.

Stellenbosch B+B Stellenbosch S33 56.179
E18 51.224 Not recommended, you are better off at the campsite and sleeping in your own tent.
 
Stellenbosch Camp Stellenbosch S33 59.435
E18 49.808 Good campsite, but don't try one of the cottages, they are not nice!
 
Kommetjie Camp Kommetjie S34 07.972
E18 20.317 Nice, quiet and clean campsite

E18 53.259 On the shore of an artificial lake, a good place.
 
Kotzeshoop Camp Sean S28 41.263

Durban B+B Jessica S29 42.729
E31 05.390 Not really recommended, if you want to stay at a B&B in Durban you're much better of at the B&B On the Rocks, or, alternatively 'Honeypot', close-by
 
Kommetjie Alumat S34 07.985
E18 22.215 They can make anything you can think of in aluminium, Kirsty and Grant, two wonderful people.
 
Cape Town 4X4 Mega World S33 54.553
E18 28.340 4x4 accessories and they have plenty, but service is not their strong suit.
 
Cape Town Hannibal Safari equipment S33 56.416
E18 33.895 Super-service if you need any repairs done on your Hannibal tent, awning or roof rack.
 
Cape Town Land Rover Service Center S34 02.023

Franschhoek La Petit Ferme S33 55.122
E19 08.194 You just have to have a lunch here, with view over the vineyards.

Mlilwane Mlilwane Nature reserve S26 29.619

Manzini Myxo's place Backpackers S26 29.841
E31 21.813 The place from which you leave on an excursion to Kaphunga, a traditional Swazi village. You can sleep in a room but they also let you camp on the drive way.
 
Kaphunga Kaphunga village S26 47.503
E31 32.240 This was a camp we had at the traditional Swazi Village. You book it at Myxo in Manzini and we can certainly recommend it!
 



Namibia
place name waypoint description
 
Ai Ais Camp Ai Ais S27 55.190
E17 29.320 Big campsite with annoying baboons. But the natural hot pool was very relaxing.
 
Keetmanshoop Texas campsite S26 34.622
E18 07.942 Campsite for all cowboys and cowgirs, Texas in Namibia!
 
Gunsbewijs Camp Gunsbewijs S26 10.986
E16 21.417 Very tiny campsite, but really nice in a beautiful place at the red dunes.
 
Sesriem Camp Sossusvlei S24 29.210
E15 47.950 Gigantic campsite, try and find a place as far away from the overland trucks as possible and you'll be all right. Expensive!
 
Walvisbaai Camp Langstrand resort S22 48.660
E14 32.690 Campsite a the seaside, nice enough but the toilets and showers have seen better days.
 
Tsoabis Leopard park S22 22.803
E15 44.933 Very beautiful and quiet spot with a nice restaurant. They also have leopards here, 2, in a cage.
 
Windhoek Stop over S22 27.448
E17 04.508 If this place wasn't so close to a water treatment plant, it would be lovely.
 
Tsumeb municipal caravan and camping park S19 15.589
E17 42.625 Clean campsite, unfortunately they let the locals come and party till late at night so we did not sleep very well.
 
Etosha Camp Halali S19 02.178
E16 28.265 As far as we're concerned the best campsite in Etosha. It's worth an effort to try and find other campers with whom you can share a site, they charge per site (max. 8 people)
 
Etosha Camp Okaukuejo S19 10.977
E15 55.026 Bigger than Halali and fewer toilets. Same goes for this site, try and find someone to share!
 
Ondangwa Ondangwa rest camp S17 54.726
E15 58.483 Small and clean campsite, the bar can be loud in the evening!
 
Kunene river Kunene river lodge S17 21.268
E13 52.858 One of the better campsites annex lodges where you can easily spend a couple of days.
 
Epupa Epupa Falls public camping ground S17 00.124

Otjihende Bush camp S17 38.662
E12 45.058 Bush camp with local Himba visitors, no problem, just make sure you've got some band aids, paracetamol and everyone is happy!
 
Puros municipal caravan and camping park S18 43.956
E12 56.514 After the 'challange' of Van Zyl's pas, a community campsite, so run by locals, spotlessly clean and very nicely laid out.
 
Ongongo Ongongo community campsite S19 08.422
E13 49.166 Swimming in a little natural lake with a little fall, which make you not worry too much about the basic toilet and shower.
 
Twijfelfontijn ABA HUAB Campsite S20 32.932

Brandberg White lady lodge and camping S21 01.011
E14 41.101 Camping amont the desert elephants, but we did not see them
 
Windhoek Trans Kalahari Inn S22 32.942
E17 16.668 Small campsite annex lodge with an excellent restaurant. Water is sometimes a problem but the friendly German owners, Herr and Frau Grimm hope to solve that problem shortly. They also store overlander cars, so if you need a place to leave your vehicle, look no further.
 
Buitenpos Kalahari Bush Breaks S22 18.590
E19 44.970 Just before the border with Botswana and a good place to spend a night.
 
van Zijl's pas End of van Zijl's pas S17 40.199

Walvisbaai Land Rover dealer S22 57.017
E14 30.971 Quick, cheap and excellent service.
 
Windhoek Land Rover dealer S22 35.413

Windhoek Off Road center S22 35.336
E17 05.160 4x4 shop for anything you think you need. If they don't have it in stock they can order it from J'burg and have it for you within 2 days.
 
Twijfelfontijn Twijfelfontijn Country Lodge S20 34.221
E14 22.213 Sleeping a the ABA HUAB campsite, and have lunch or dinner here, enjoying the views.
 



Botswana
place name waypoint description
 
Maun Audi Camp S19 56.120
E23 31.010 Good campsite with a nice bar and nice enough restaurant. A good place when you want to visit Moremi and/or Chobe NP
 
Kwai River Camp North Gate Moremi NP S19 10.332
E23 45.193 Basic campsite just inside the gates of Moremi. Not fenced so watch out for the lions! If you want to save on park fees you can also stay at the communial campsite of Kwail 1 km outside the gate.
 
Xakanaxa Xakanaxa, Moremi NP S19 10.903
E23 24.865 Again a bush camp feeling at an official campsite, lions, leopards, elephants, the lot, so stay close to your tent!
 
Makgadikgadi pans Leroo La Tau S20 25.565
E24 31.214 Affordable luxurious lodge with lots of game. You can also camp between the elephants, zebras and lions.
 
Nata Nata Lodge S20 13.504
E26 16.108 Nice enough campsite and lodge in Nata, a place you only go because you have to pass through.
 
Kasane Toro Safari camp S17 47.749
E25 14.410 The very first campsite we ever saw with your own private shower and toilet, a restaurant and pool with a bar where they serve your drinks at the pool.
 
Kopong Arne's horseback riding S24 24.455
E25 50.627 Like a bush camp, but you have to pay (a little) and the location is quite nice!
 
Kalahari NP Kalahari camp S23 13.737
E24 20.911 There a few small campsites in the Kalahari that you have to yourself. The facilities are simple and brand new when we were there, so still clean. The real bush camp feeling!
 
Kalahari NP Kalahari Camp S22 17.177
E23 34.976 Like Kalahari 1
 
Francistown Francistown S21 11.968
E27 31.981 Good campsite though we cannot recommend the restaurant, which is overpriced.
 



Zimbabwe
place name waypoint description
 
Victoria Falls Victoria Falls Restcamp and lodges S17 55.519
E25 50.258 As so many places in Zimbabwe it has seen better days, but a nice pool and close to the falls.
 
Bulawayo Bulawayo community campsite S20 09.512
E28 35.665 Build in the seventies and never touched again. But all is clean and quiet, there was just one other car when we where there.
 
Sikato Kyle Nature reserve S20 14.300
E30 57.322 Beautifully situated at a lake with clean toilets and showers.
 
Juliandal adventure holiday farm S18 21.223
E32 36.323 Because the campsite where we planned to go to was no longer there we took our refuge here. A few little cottages not very tastefully decorated to say the least, for 40 US$
 



Mozambique
place name waypoint description
 
Bandula Casa Msika S19 02.428
E33 03.905 After Zimbabwe a nice enough place, eventhough there were zillion (biting) ants. We parked our car close to the restaurant and the lake (less ants!) and nobody seemed to mind.
 
Vilanculo Baobab beach S22 00.538
E35 19.317 Nice place with a beautiful bar overlooking the ocean. We did not stay here because there was a 'full moon party' planned that evening and Mirjam was ill.
 
Vilanculo Blue waters beach resort no information Camping for 20 US$ (!), we felt cheated and it is certainly not value for money.
 
Tofo Bamboozi S23 50.498
E35 32.217 Very relaxed place, beautiful beach and apparently great diving spot. Unfortunately camping was no longer allowed when we were there, but that might change again, so just ask. They have cheap little huts you can rent, or do like us, and rent the honeymoon hut with stunning ocean view for US$ 50.
 
Marracuene Casa Lisa S25 35.091
E32 39.282 Camping or staying at a little hut, 80 km north of Maputo. Very nice (and very British) owners and you can also have dinner here.
 



Zambia
place name waypoint description
 
Livingstone Waterfront campsite S17 53.194
E25 50.662 Good campsite though for dinner you are better off in town.
 
Livingstone Jolly backpackers S17 50.872
E25 51.245 We thought it was very noisy and the bed was awful but it is very central in town and they allow camping in the parking lot (we didn?t do that).
 
Lusaka Lilaly lodge S15 32.465
E28 20.284 Because it was low season we could negotiate a good deal for a cottage. There is no camping. There is a campsite in the area, which looked nice enough, but when we were here it was raining constantly so we decided against camping.
 
Lusaka Lilaly lodge cottage S15 32.158
E28 17.287 When the lodge is full they can put you up in this house, but it is not really a good alternative.
 
Kafue NP Kafue National Park S16 28.046
E25 44.718 In Kafue you are allowed to camp anywhere, which makes it quite special. Of course that means no facilities but lots of peace and quiet.
 
outsite Kafue NP Mukambi Safary lodge S14 58.651
E25 59.603 A very beautiful lodge and there is also a possibility for camping. The (set) dinner is highly recommended, just skip the wine.
 
Kafue NP Chunga camp S15 02.584
E25 59.999 Just a basic campsite in a National Park, nothing special.
 
outsite Kafue NP David Shepherd campsite S15 46.621
E26 00.393 A beautiful spot with a view over the lake and the best service you could imagine on a campsite! Maybe you should let them know that you don?t need them to wash your car at 6 am.
 
Luanga Bridge Luanga Bridge Camp S15 00.361
E30 12.898 A good stop-over on the way to South Luanga.
 
Chipata Chipata, Mama Rulas S13 34.944
E32 36.593 A campsite run by South Africans, and that shows. Beautiful, clean and a nice place to relax for a while.
 
South Luanga NP South Luanga Wilderniss Camp S13 06.559
E31 45.228 With view on a hippo-packed river, a small but nice swimming pool, a nice bar and a restaurant, what more can you ask for?
 



Malawi
place name waypoint description
 
Lilongwe Kiboko Camp S13 59.966
E33 45.575 A simple but nice campsite annex backpackers run by Dutch people.
 
Nkhata Bay Njaya lodge S11 37.240
E34 18.293 This is a nice quiet place and the only spot in Nkhata Bay where you can camp with your car with rooftent. The restaurant is good, the staff is better. Hopefully by the time you get there they have replaced management, because they were really awful.
 
Nkhata bay Aqua Africa S11 36.493
E34 18.051 If you haven?t been scuba diving before now here is your chance to get certified. The cheapest place in the world and they really pay attention to detail and safety. And you get to see all these beautiful fish!
 
Mzuzu Mzoozoozoo S11 27.443
E34 01.697 There are not many places to stay in Mzuzu if you want to camp and this is a nice place. The owners are very welcoming, but they surely like their beer and whiskey! When we were there they were working on hot showers and.. there is a playstation!
 
Nyika National park Nyika campsite S10 35.097
E33 47.956 Don?t skip this park when you are in Malawi. Simple but good campsite with nice hot showers and in the evening the guard will light a fire for you, which is nice because it gets really cold at night.
 
Livingstonia Lukwe perma camp S10 35.128
E34 07.663 A little piece of paradise. Great views over Lake Malawi, eco-friendly set-up with very helpfull staff, good dinners and make sure you try their home-made fresh bread!
 
 
Friday March 31, 2006 


East Africa
Tanzania
place name waypoint description
 
Mbeya Karibuni Mission S8 54.556
E33 26.635 A mission post with camping in the parking lot, there is also a restaurant.
 
50 km before Iringa Kisolanza, The old Farm House S8 08.746
E35 24.761 A pearl in Tanzania and please make sure you have dinner, you might think it is expensive until you?ve tasted it!
 
50 km before Morogoro Melela camp S6 56.578
E37 16.104 Very primitive, dirty long-drop toilets (which had turned into short-drops) and no water, skip it if you can.
 
Dar es Salaam Kipopeo camp S6 51.099
E39 21.698 Nice place on the beach south of Dar, you have to take the ferry. You can leave your car here if you want to go to Zanzibar. The restaurant is a bit overpriced but 100 meters down the beach there is a good Indian restaurant.
 
Dar es Salaam Holiday Inn S6 48.678
E39 17.613 Good hotel, international standards if you want to treat yourself to a nice air-conditioned room (it can get very hot in Dar). Emiel was not well so that's why we decided to go for air-conditioning! We left the car here when we went to Zanzibar; they don?t charge you for it.
 
Lushoto Irente clif view S4 48.092
E38 15.479 Lodge, in cheap Indian style but clean. They have a small field where you can camp and the view is stunning.
 
Arusha Masai camp S3 23.076
E36 43.189 Huge campsite with many overland trucks, so it might be noisy!
 
just outside Ngorongoro NP Moya hill S3 19.066
E35 44.065 A very nice quiet campsite and a good place to stay when you are on your way to Ngorongoro, just 20 k from the gate.
 
Ngorongoro NP Simba A S3 13.684
E35 29.429 Like a bush camp but it will cost you 20 US per person, and this is the cheapest option!
 
Serengeti NP Seronera S2 25.308
E34 51.873 Like in Ngorongoro also here you pay for the privilege to be in the park and not for the facilities, which are not so good.
 
Mwanza Mwanza Yachtclub S2 31.733
E32 53.685 They just renovated the toilets and showers but in the weekends it is very noisy. But it is close to the city (walking distance).
 
Mwanza Bujora Cultural Camp S2 32.528
E33 02.383 Like an open-air museum. The tour is not that interesting but when the yacht club is too noisy for you, this is a good alternative about 20 k from Mwanza. It is very basic.
 
Biharamulo Biharamulo fort S2 37.903

Hola house, en principio yo creia que si, que por djibuiti era mejor, incluso me lo dijo uno que vivia en sana pero me he encontrado a unos moteros que vienen de alli, y dicen que djibuiti es un infierno y somaliland (por berbera)  esta muy tranquila, pero al final no se por donde ire.

Tengo entendido que somaliland es un pais independiente pero no esta reconocido, es mas tranquilo. No tiene nada que ver con somalia en teme de seguridad.


pego de https://fronterasblog.wordpress.com

A diferencia del caótico sur de Somalia, Somalilandia ha permanecido durante estos 17 años en un relativo estado de paz, y ha disfrutado de una estabilidad inexistente en el resto de Somalia. Lo estable del país ha permitido la formación de un estado más bien democrático basado en un sistema de clanes, con unas instituciones fuertes, una moneda propia (el chelín somalilandés), un parlamento bicameral, servicios de policía y fuerzas armadas y demás atributos que normalmente tiene cualquier estado. Su capital, Hargeisa, es considerada una de las ciudades más seguras de África, donde funciona una pequeña industria turística (y también Internet vía satélite), y el país mantiene relaciones económicas con Etiopía, Arabia Saudí y otros países de la zona.

pego del wikypedia

Somalilandia (en somalí: Soomaaliland) es un país independiente de facto ubicado al noroeste de Somalia, en el llamado Cuerno de África, al este del continente africano.

No es reconocido internacionalmente pero posee gobierno, moneda y una constitución propios e incluso un desarrollo económico mayor, además de mayor estabilidad política que Somalia.

y del maec

en la actualidad el país se encuentra dividido en tres zonas: la región autónoma de Somaliland  que se autoproclamó independiente: la región autónoma de Puntland y la región central y meridional de Somalia De todas ellas, la región menos inestable es Somaliland pero tampoco escapa a los incidentes violentos y a los enfrentamientos interregionales como el que le enfrenta con Puntland.


Pues eso que no se por donde ire supongo que me encontrare a mas viajeros para aclararme si voy por yibuti o somalilandia que suena a walt disney :) :)

De somaliland no se nada, pero todo lo que suene a somalia...este verano un amigo entro desde Etiopia a Djibouti a cargar el coche en un container y sin problema, pero es info de hace 5 meses

en yemen han cerrado las embajas americanas e inglesas, sola la española resiste, pero la han blindado. se espera un ataque de los americanos  los campos de entrenamiento de alqaeda, con los cual los blanquitos no seran muy bien recibidos por alla.

yo salgo hoy, con lo cual las contestaciones se haran esperar.

cuenta como has pasado de angola a zambia y como te ha ido por congo
