Media Library
After much discussion, it was clear that a single repository for all media associated with The Africa Rally was needed, in order to not only give prospective teams an idea of the community they are becoming part of, but to assist those on their own overlanding adventures.
Resources
In order to best assist teams in preparing for their overland adventure, this area of our Media Library will consist of useful posters, guides, infographics, and brochures always free to download.
Please be patient with us while the team create these resources, however if you’ve an immediate query don’t hesitate to get in touch directly on info@africarally.com

In the Media
We want to ensure as many people know about the mischief we are up to in Africa, and that the charities our teams are supporting get as much exposure as possible. This is why we have long since adopted the approach of speaking with any media outlet, big or small, to tell the story of The Africa Rally, and the rallies to come!

Blog
In addition to the resources which we’ll be making available for download, there are a number of longer form blog articles which the team will be putting together. These cover everything from detailed Tips & Tricks, to location reviews, personal stories from the road, and much much more.
