Central America & Mexico Postpone

21st March 2009

Dear Fellow World Explorers,

We trust this email finds you all well and your passion for travel burning brightly.

Despite all our efforts to fight the tough economic times we are currently in, there has been a lack of participants signing up for the Central America and Mexican expedition. With this reality we at 4x4 World Explorer Snd Bhd have made a bold decision to proceed with the expedition but postpone it to start on 8th November 2009.

We have also decided to create 3 sectors from the original schedule:

1) CENTRAL AMERICA DISCOVERY – Visit the countries of Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Honduras, Guatemala from San Jose to Guatemala City.
2) MAYAN & AZTEC WORLD – Visit the countries of Guatemala, Belize, Mexico from Guatemala City to Mexico City
3) BAJA CALIFORNIA ADVENTURE – Visiting countries of Mexico and USA from Mexico City to Los Angeles

Each sector will be 15 days long but there are options of doing more then one sector consecutively or doing all 3 sectors.

Having researched and recce’d these locations we promise that at the end of this year we will have in store for you the most amazing, inspiring, active and thought provoking adventures sectors of the America’s to date! Having lunch on active volcanoes, standing at the heart of a Mayan calendar sites which predicts 2012 as the end of the world as we know it, seeing ancient football pitches where in those days the losing team’s manager would be executed right after the match, having a calm cup of tea in a boutique area of the most populated city in the world, whale watching, off road routes to prehistoric cave painting sites, to name but a few.

We hope that you understand the situation and see this and an opportunity to prepare for some unforgettable future exploration of this wonderfully diverse and interesting planet.

Please feel free to contact us with any questions or enquires you may have. Tel: +603 4251 2423 or info@4x4we.com

YES, I WANT TO BE A 4X4 EXPLORER!

Written by Justin Ong
Tuesday, 24 February 2009 10:23

Want to travel but don't want to play it safe by staying on the beaten path? Looking to get so close to the land
that you can't tell sweat from mud and grime? Dream off seeing sights that few people other than the
indigenous population have ever had the privilege of enjoying? Well, check your bank accounts, tally up your
leave, and if they both meet the requirements, you could a 4x4 World Explorer, too.
4x4 World Explorer, the established off-road expedition organisers, will be setting off to traverse the one
remaining continent that hasn't been checked off their list – Central America – this May and you, too, can be a
part of this adventure.
The upcoming leg of the journey, billed as the “World Explorer Series Part II – Central America and Mexico” will
be kicking off on April 28 and should last for a gruelling 47 days, if everything goes according to plans.
The month-and-half trip will see the group visiting six countries in the Central American region, including Costa
Rica; Nicaragua; Honduras; Guatemala; Belize; and Mexico before moving on to California, USA for the final
part of their expedition.
It takes a particular kind of character to be able to survive and even enjoy such a taxing undertaking, which
these self-confessed 'nutjobs' consider to be a vacation of sorts. You'll need to be physically fit, mentally
strong, financially well-off, and somewhat idle (though this should be a follow-on from the financial bit).
If you fit the bill, then 4x4 World Explorer will be more than happy to take you on, either as a driving participant
with your own mudcrawler or as a hop-in passenger in one of the three designated official vehicles. Therefore,
you can participate even if you do not wish to use your own or do not own an expedition-prepared off-roader.
Entry fees for the Central American leg is listed as RM46,000 for the entire duration, while shipping fees start
from RM13,200 and varies according to the shipping destination. A surcharge of US$50 per day will also be
levied on hop-in participants to cover fuel and other operating costs.
Should any of this strike you as sane and enjoyable, then you're probably feel right at home with these 4x4
World Explorers and should get in touch with them at info@4x4we.com or +603-4521 2423 to book your spot
on the trip. Places are limited, especially for hop-ins so fire off that email or phone call soon.
But if you're like us and are unwilling to give up simple daily comforts such as running water and toilets that
flush, then you can follow their journey here since we'll be keeping tabs on the 4x4 World Explorers as they
travel on this adventure of a lifetime.
