ITINERARY

Day 1: Cederberg Mountain Region

Day 2: Namaqualand – Gariep (Orange) River

An early start, then we head north via the distant town of Springbok and then to the Namibia border. We camp on the river bank that forms the border between South Africa and Namibia.

Day 3: Namibia – Fish River Canyon

This morning there’s the chance to see the beautiful river valley by canoe, or just relax in the sun. After lunch we cross the border and travel to the Fish River Canyon. After a walk along the edge of the canyon we watch the sunset and enjoy a fantastic photo opportunity. Optional Activities: Half Day Canoe Adventure.

Day 4: Namib-Naukluft National Park

We arrive at the Namib-Naukluft National Park and set up camp, then enjoy a short hike into the Sesriem Canyon. Tonight enjoy the star studded sky and enduring silence of the Namib Desert

Day 9: Himba Tribes

After some early morning exploration we continue north and drive towards Kamanjab. The Himba are a pastoral people and predominantly breed cattle or goats, they are easily recognisable by their unique style of dress.

Day 10/11: Etosha National Park

Etosha is the venue for some of the most unique game viewing experiences in Africa. The sparse grasslands allow great opportunities to see animals normally hidden in dense vegetation. We will go on various game drives, and spend our evenings at the abundant water holes for some excellent game photography. Optional Activities: Night or Dawn Drives in safari vehicles

Our journey takes us from Ghanzi towards Maun. We spend the night here and prepare for our 2-night bush-camping experience. From here we will enter the Delta using local transport. If the water level allows we will take a mokoro ride (traditional canoe) as well as nature walks with the local people. Optional Activity: Scenic flight over the Delta (time allowing)

Day 17: Gweta
We leave the Delta behind us and travel east to Planet Baobab. You can explore the bush around our campsite and view some of oldest Baobab trees.
