The Team
Toby is your lead guide. For green laning safaris he will also work with another local guide. He has been a green laner and Land Rover enthusiast for as long as he can remember. He and his family have owned every kind of Land Rover over the years, from Series I's to 101 Forward Controls. Toby started doing aid work in Bosnia back in 1994 and like so many international visitors to the country, very quickly fell in love with it. In 2006 Toby finally realised his dream of buying a house there with his wife Mirén.
Our Defender 110 Guide Vehicle
Our 7 seater, air-conditioned, TD5 Land Rover is now fully equiped for the 2008 season. It has a full length decked roof rack with roof bags, a Safari Snorkel raised air intake, steering guard, front diff guard, rear diff slider, rock sliders, Mantec fuel tank guard, twin ARB diff-lockers and a Milemarker 9500SE winch. We carry a Garmin GPS 60CSX, and have a UK channel CB radio. We use Insa Turbo Sahara tyres in 235/85/16 for leading our green laning tours, and BF Goodrich All-Terrains for our Safari Breaks.
Our Approach to the Mine Risk in Bosnia
We take the threat of mines and unexploded ordinance in the Bosnian countryside extremely seriously. We know people injured by mines in the last conflict, and your guides have families to go home to, so we do not see the threat as an opportunity to seek thrills or to impress our guests. We never drive on trails where there is any known or suspected risk. We have used up-to-date official mine maps at every step of our planning and exploration to ensure maximum safety. We have used these in conjunction with locally sourced knowledge from veterans, villagers and shepherds etc. NONE of the trails we will take you on are suspected by either the authorities or by local users to have a mine risk associated with them. ALL of them have been driven by us before, on many occasions.
