ZUKIWORLD'S ADVENTURE SERIES 2008


The Adventure Series is a succession of explorations located in North America for ZUKIWORLD online readers and Suzuki 4x4 owners. This means LJ, SJ410, SJ413, Samurai, Sidekick, X-90, Tracker, Vitara, Grand Vitara, XL-7. If it's a Suzuki 4WD vehicle you qualify! The goal of the Adventure Series is to meet new people, explore the outback, experience local flavor, eat good food, bask in the sunshine and drive some of the best, and most picturesque 4 wheel drive trails in the World.

The philosophy of this Adventure Series 2008 is to see some "neat" things. There will most likely be some difficult situations, terrain, obstacles, and environment, that we encounter. First and foremost, the ZUKIWORLD adventurer should be prepared and have a good attitude. If your looking for catered meals and 5 star hotels, you will be disappointed. During most of these adventures, we will be camping on the trail, cooking over a fire, and will no doubtedly be dusty and dirty. If this sounds fun to you, sign up now!

We're sure you have many questions. Below are a few of the more common ones. If your interested in participating in one or more of these adventures, please visit our ADVENTURE Forum and send us your comments, questions, etc...

Who is paying for it ?
You are. These is not a sanctioned events. Everyone is liable for themselves, this includes getting there, camping, eating, and drinking. Some of the adventures do pose certain risks, participants accept full responsibility for themselves.

Wagon train vs. Base camp ?
The Adventure series consist of two basic types of adventures. The 'Wagon Train' adventure is one where the participants carry everything needed with them on the vehicle. Think of this as a 'safari' adventure where you may or may not end up close to where you started. 'Base Camp' adventures are ones where a base will be set and day trips are taken from that location. These are best for the 'Motor Home' or 'Tow Rig' crowd as they usually involved Hotels or improved campgrounds.
