As first time campers, our three day trip in “Armstrong” courtesy of Overland Adventures was an exciting challenge and one which we can safely say, exceeded our expectations.
From the information sent to us in advance, through to the initial handover and the handing back of the vehicle, Tracy and Darren were thoughtful and professional.
Hints and tips regarding the vehicle and the tents were very welcome – it’s always good to know what to expect and that with practise the opening and closing of the tents does become easier.
It took a couple of hours to familiarise ourselves with the vehicle but soon enough the manual gearbox/handbrake, locking system became second nature as we meandered around the country lanes of Northumbria with smiles on our faces.
Everything we needed for our adventure was provided – including storage to keep food (picked up from the local supermarket) cool and logs for the Solo stove that was a wonderful addition to sit out late into the night. All cooking equipment was provided and we had some great al fresco meals in complete privacy.
The tents are essentially super comfortable king size beds with all bedding provided and enough options for ventilation for a great nights sleep whilst keeping bugs at bay.
A truly unforgettable experience creating wonderful memories.
