There, they embark on a classic road trip through some of the most stunning landscapes they’ve ever encountered, winding through lush mountains, spearing across dry planes, cruising down beautiful boulevards, breezing past elephants and giraffes, and taking their chances crossing a crocodile-infested lake on three unusual car-carrying boats. Despite their best efforts to make this last outing a relaxing and agreeable meander between extremely pleasant hotels, the three can’t avoid some typical road trip challenges, starting with the need to take care of the terrible backup car dispatched at short notice by a disgruntled Mr Wilman. Beyond that, their patience is tested by brutally rough terrain, mechanically misbehaving cars, moments of map-reading incompetence and the terrifying prospect of crashing, drowning or breaking a nail on the complicated retractable roof of Jeremy’s Lancia.
