About Us

A family run company in the heart of the Greater Kruger, we strive to share our passion for the outdoor life


Our story

Since buying the humble “4×4 Shop” in 2015, we have continuously grown, adding new suppliers and stock items and embarking on an ongoing program of DIY refurbishment that has lead to the store being sought out by customers from all over Hoedspruit, the greater Limpopo area, and beyond.

Our aim is to become a truly one stop shop for all your outdoor needs.

In 2017 we launched the tours and safaris side of our business. Our aim was to offer a more exclusive safari option with smaller private groups being given the most personal and enjoyable experience we could offer. We’ve now grown from simple airport transfers and day trips in the surrounding greater Kruger area to include customised tours and specialist photographic safaris.

We can’t wait to see where we go next. And so it begins…
