Who are we?

Combining 15 years of work in the travel industry with our own passion for travel, Ingo and I finally decided to set up Equatours after our recent trip around the world, so that we could share our unique travel experiences with others.

Our philosophy “be a traveller not a tourist” is evident in the escorted adventure tours and experiential packages we have put together, and our aim is to give you an unforgettable holiday experience to those destinations you may not have considered before.

Taking you below the equator we will show you some of the most beautiful countries on planet earth, and provide you with the opportunity to step off the tourist trails to visit unique places on our ‘tried and tested’ routes.

We keep our escorted groups small so that we can cater for your every need, and whether you are looking for a thrill seeking adventure or a relaxing trip into nature, we give you the freedom and flexibility to do as you please.

We appreciate that escorted tours are not for everyone and so we also offer a fantastic collection of self-drive routes throughout South Africa, South America and Oceania for those independent travellers who prefer to explore alone.

Over the past 12-months, we have concentrated on developing our Tailor-Made travel portfolio, and we can now create the holiday of your dreams in just a few hours. Simply let us know where, when, and what you would like to see and do, and we will pull the pieces together into one complete tailor-made package.

Having lived in over eight different countries we speak four languages and have a wealth of experience in travel that we look forward to sharing with you.

Been there, done that, we definitely have the t-shirt – so why not join us, and let us take you below zero for a holiday of a lifetime.

Thank you for visiting our site!
