EQUIPMENT AND CREW

The Crew:

Nomadic operates a two-crew system, lead by an experienced Tour Leader, except on some shorter trips (Marrakech & Sahara 8 days) where it may be deemed appropiate that only a Tour leader is necessary.

 

 

The responsibilities and demands placed on our team are great and therefore a considerable number of skills and attributes are expected by us of our crew. These include having social skills to harmonise group dynamics, being a diplomat and ambassador, to being a mechanic and a qualified first aider. Respect and enthusiasm for this fascinating continent is an absolute must.On all expeditions the Tour Leader will have full responsibility for the safety of the passengers, the crew and the truck. He/she is therefore entitled to make any changes to the itinerary that he/she feels are necessary to achieve this.

Local Guides:

Wherever possible we employ the services of local guides where we can benefit from their expert cultural and geographical knowledge.
