Wander Beyond Boundaries

XOL Self drive

Pioneers in extreme overlanding, WBB has been running self-drive expeditions world over for a decade now. We specialize in first-of-its-kind expeditions across Russia, Central Asia, Africa, Nepal and India, with a strong focus on celebrating the supremacy of the human spirit.

Nautical

Nautical is our water vertical. Underwater exists a magical world that we know little about. The quest is to explore, be awed by the magnificence and sheer wonder. We offer journeys to the best snorkelling and diving sites in the world.

Wildlife

Explore a world that is so similar, yet, distinctly so different from ours. These overland self-drive expeditions are about not just seeing animals; but about gaining an insight into their behavior and life to understand the animal within each of us. WBB offers specific overland drives with an overt focus on wildlife. We presently operate in central Africa in Uganda. We soon hope to begin explorations in other parts of central and southern Africa.
