DCAU Kitty Details

This trip is an overland trip run in an overland truck. In addition to paying for your trip, you're require to make a separate payment to your tour leader at the start of the trip, usually in USD. Kitties are flexible and change as prices are updated. Therefore you should check the latest kitty amount on this website before you depart.

A kitty is a group fund which covers all accommodation, meals while camping (not in hotels) and activities listed as included. It's a system unique to overlanding to provide the maximum flexibility and best value on the road (you get everything at cost price!). The kitty is your money, not ours, so any amount left over is divided among the group as a refund.

Our New Trip across All the America's is a recreation of a trip that we first ran back in the 1990s, enabling intrepid travellers to head from Alaska in the very north of North America and traverse through Central America to Colombia. From there, it’s possible to link up to our existing South American trips to follow the entire western route through South America to Ushuaia at the ‘ends of the earth’ – almost 10,000 miles from the start point. Mid Summer sun to mid summer sun, north to south or south to north.
