Grogan and Sharp embarked on one of the most perilous treks in Africa, from the Cape of Good Hope to Cairo, Egypt, on foot, establishing that Africa could ostensibly be crossed by railway. They traveled to the Zambezi, then through the lake districts of central Africa, on to the Upper Nile, to Khartoum and on to Cairo. Marching up the Pungwe, the party hunted buffalo and lion. On the Chiperoni, they bagged sable and rhinoceros, while in the Rusisi Valley near Lake Albert, the pair succeeded in bagging several elephant. Grogan ran into particular difficulty with the Dinkas and Nuers in the upper reaches of the Nile before finally making his way to Cairo.
