When it comes to travel, there’s roughing it.

Then there’s roughing it in a Land Rover.

This is about roughing it in a Land Rover.

Introducing Land Rover Adventure Travel, taking reservations now.

These self-driving adventures are weeklong luxury escapades across some of the world’s most scenic vistas … with you sitting nice behind the wheel of an all-terrain Land Rover (models vary from the Range Rover Sport to the Defender 110).

Helping the ride: a small army of local guides, support vehicles and instructors. And some five-star accommodations.

A few we liked:

Namibia: Journey over the world’s tallest sand dunes and track endangered black and white rhinos across the rocky moonscape of Damaraland. Plus, some of the world’s best glamping.

England: Off-road amongst the deep mud and steep hills of the English countryside. Stay in castles and get a crack at Land Rover’s private courses (oh, and hit up Wimbledon VIP style.)

Tanzania: Track elephants, wildebeests and hyenas across the Serengeti and stay inside the rim of a volcanic crater. Your driving landscape: “sand, deep ruts, slippery gravel and water crossings.”

Plus, trips to Australia, Botswana, Scotland and Morocco. All booking now.

Happy trails.
