Apart from using public transport, there are other means of travelling overland. Bringing your own vehicle is also an option. In urban areas and developed country, this may have some of the disadvantages as air travel: you will only see your destination plus the highway, and you will not meet the locals.
In more remote areas, however, you will indeed see much more, and may end up sleeping at the locals in distant villages in the countryside. In these remote regions, you will most likely need a 4x4 vehicle or motorbike, allowing you to go offroad. You can read more about this in this article about Offroad Adventure Travel, written for us by offroad specialist Ron Douglas.
If you are adventurous, but not technical enough to go by your own 4x4, consider taking an overland truck. These are organized trips, but other than that, they offer all the excitement of adventure travel. Read more about this way of travelling on out page about Overland Trucks. And check out how to travel Africa Overland.
Last, but certainly not least, we would like to mention travelling by bicycle. Agreed, it is slow, but if you have more time on your hands, it is the best way to experience the country and region you are travelling in. You can read more about it in this article about Bike Travel, written for us by experienced bicycle traveller Peter van der Lans.
