Gunther Holtorf is a German who drove 549,000 miles across 177 countries miles in a Mercedes BenzG-Wagen named "Otto" from 1988 to 2014. It was planned initially as a two year trip across Africa, but evolved into an objective to see the world. Sleeping in or next to the vehicle, he was accompanied on most of the journey by his fourth wife Christine Holtorf, although she died in 2010. Other companions were his third wife Beate for a trial trip before Christine, and after Christine's death, his adopted son Martin (Christine's son) and then his friend Elke Dreweck, but he also travelled alone.
