Jordan, Egypt, and Southern African Safari 2027

This is the one everybody has been asking about! Landsharkz are going to Africa in 2027 and you’re invited! We’ll be geocaching and exploring the history, the culture, the food, and the animals as we embark on two back-to-back adventures! First we visit Jordan and Egypt, exploring such sights as Petra, the Dead Sea, Cairo and Luxor with a Nile River Cruise! Then we fly to Cape Town, South Africa and spend 14 days in South Africa, Botswana and Zimbabwe. We will do a little city touring, then head out on safari, visit Victoria Falls, and even sneak over to Zambia for a geocache.

This trip will be broken into two parts for those that can’t do both. The Jordan/Egypt portion will be 14-days and the Southern Africa Safari portion will also be 14-days. These trips are designed to flow one into the other if you wish to do both (May 15 is a travel-recovery day)!

Fitness Expectations

For our Landsharkz Geocaching Adventures, we like to keep things fun and adventurous, but we also want to make sure everyone enjoys the journey together. This trip involves walking (sometimes a kilometre or more at a time), climbing stairs, navigating uneven ground, spending time in a bumpy-ride off-road vehicle, and – potentially – peeing in the bushes. You don’t need to be an athlete, but you should be comfortable keeping up with the group without slowing the pace. Think of it as “holiday fit”: if you can stroll on an uneven path, climb some steps or the occasional hill, and laugh along the way, you’ll be right at home on this tour.

Limited Space

This trip has very limited space. Priority will be given to guests who book early, book both trips and to those who have travelled with us before. Others will be placed on a waitlist. Once your spot is confirmed and your deposit is paid, your place is guaranteed.

Travel Advisories

We understand that some travellers may have safety concerns about this region. We encourage everyone to review the Canadian Government’s Travel Advisory website for up-to-date information on each country. Many destinations on this trip are currently rated “green” – Exercise normal travel precautions.

Our itinerary avoids problem areas and contentious border regions. For context, many countries we’ve visited in the past — such as Vietnam, Cambodia, Italy, the UK, Brazil, and Peru — were rated “yellow” – Exercise a high degree of caution. The key is always to follow our experienced guides and stay aware, as with any international travel.

Ultimately, we encourage you to travel only where you feel comfortable and confident.
