The Overlanding Podcast is dedicated to vehicle dependent travel. In each episode we’ll be meeting adventurous people who have chosen to travel the world by bicycle, motorcycle, car and truck. Each week we’ll discover what motivates people to embark on life changing journeys.  No doubt there will be high drama, tales of amazing hospitality and incredible stories from the road less travelled.

​Whether you are on the road or planning a trip of your own we’d love you to come along for the ride with us!
