Bushwakka-then-now-always-Bushwakka-africa

Bushwakka. Just saying the name stirs up memories of wild adventures, doesn’t it?

Bushwakka has been more than just a brand; it’s been a companion to countless explorers, an emblem of freedom, and a symbol of the untamed spirit.  Most importantly, it is a legacy that will live one for many more years to come.

Where it All Began

Picture this: Brothers, itching to escape the daily grind and dive headfirst into the great outdoors. That’s how Bushwakka started—born out of a shared love for exploration and a desire to create something that could keep up with their adventures. And boy, did they succeed.

Off the Beaten Path

Bushwakka trailers have seen it all. They’ve trekked over rocky terrain, splashed through muddy puddles, and weathered storms that would make lesser trailers ‘think twice’. From the dusty trails of the Outback, beautiful nature of Africa to the lush forests of South America, Bushwakka trailers have been there, providing a cozy refuge in the midst of nature’s chaos.

Always Innovating

But Bushwakka isn’t content to rest on its laurels. Oh no. Innovation is in its DNA. Over the years, these trailers have evolved, incorporating new designs, new materials and technologies to make outdoor living even sweeter. Solar panels, eco-friendly materials, you name it—Bushwakka is always looking for ways to make camping more comfortable and sustainable

More than a Brand, a Community

What sets Bushwakka apart isn’t just its trailers; it’s the people behind them. Bushwakka enthusiasts aren’t just customers; they’re part of a tribe—a global community of adventurers who share a love for the open road and the wild unknown. Swap stories, lend a hand, or just share a beer around the campfire—when you are part of the Bushwakka family, you’re never alone.

Looking Ahead

As we gaze into the future, one thing is clear: the spirit of Bushwakka burns as bright as ever. Who knows what the future holds? One thing’s for sure: Bushwakka will be there, ready for whatever adventures lie ahead.

In the end, Bushwakka isn’t just a brand—it’s a way of life. So, here’s to the wild ones, the explorers, the dreamers.

Here’s to Bushwakka: then, now, and always

Camper Trailers vs Holiday Houses

Bushwakk Bulletin-Camper Trailers vs Holiday Houses

Life on wheels has some serious benefits compared to going to the same old place when you feel like taking a break or holiday.

Here’s why owning a Bushwakka camper trailer is the golden ticket to your own endless adventure.

Freedom

Unlike a holiday home that’s stuck in one place, the Bushwakka camper trailer turns every day into a choose-your-own-adventure story. Mountains, Beaches, Karoo — pick all three!  Your home is on wheels.

Budget-Friendly

Holiday homes come at a huge cost and the expense doesn’t stop there. Bushwakka Camper trailers? Much more budget-friendly. Rather use that cash for next adventures.

Home is Where You Park It

Your Bushwakka camper trailer is a comfy home on wheels with everything you will need.  No need to have sleepless nights about possible burglaries at your locked up holiday house by the beach.

Maintenance

Holiday homes need a lot of upkeep. Bushwakka camper trailers not so much. They’re built tough and need way less maintenance, leaving you more time for sipping coffee by the campfire instead of fixing a leaky roof. 

Book your annual service with your local Bushwakka Distributor or Agent and we will make sure that your camper trailer is always in tip-top shape!

Life happens

Life changes, and so do your needs. At Bushwakka Africa, we get that. Whether you’re flying solo, meet the love of your live, or adding kids to the mix; we have the right size camper trailer that will complement each phase of your life.  

No need for expensive property changes to accommodate your growing family.

Bushwakka Family

Be sure to swap stories, make friends, and bond over your shared love for the Bushwakka Africa brand. Definitely not a community you will find being stuck in your holiday home.
