Kathmandu or bust for adventurer Kingsley Holgate
Holgate was sent off in style by the team from SMD / Land Rover Ballito.
Famed adventurer Kingsley Holgate launched his latest journey on Saturday, embarking on a mammoth trip that will take him from Cape Town all the way to Kathmandu in Nepal.
Holgate was sent off in style by the team from SMD / Land Rover Ballito.
Kingsley Holgate is a well-known humanitarian adventurer, TV personality, Land Rover Ambassador, Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society, renowned speaker and a legend that Getaway Magazine calls, ‘the most traveled man in Africa’.
He is the author of four previous best-selling books on travel and adventure: ‘Cape to Cairo’, ‘Capricorn – following the invisible line’, ‘Africa – in the footsteps of the Great Explorers’ and ‘Afrika – Dispatches from the Outside Edge’.
The event also marked the launch of his highly anticipated fifth book. ‘Africa – a Love Affair with a Continent’ has been five years in the making and spans 30 years of travel and adventure to every country in Africa, including all of her island states.
Packed with stories taken from Kingsley’s pile of dog-eared expedition journals and laced with his legendary humour, each chapter is a stand-alone chronicle of a life of adventure; the excitement, escapades and characters met along the way.
