• It’s What We Do

World-class rallies are an impossible dream for most adventure riders, but the Australasian Safari Adventure Tour (ADVT) runs alongside the Australasian Safari each year and gives riders a taste of the world-class Rally Raid experience. Ewen MacGregor – no, really – tagged along through some stunningly beautiful parts of Western Australia to find out what it’s all about.

While it’s not the race itself, the ADVT follows the Australasian Safari route, riding as many of the competition stages as possible.

It’s normally around 70 per cent of the official race course.
