The Epupa Falls |
|
The Northwest of Namibia is one of the most
awe inspiring regions Africa has to offer. Here
the wild mountains, with their fascinating geological history, are blending
into the oldest desert of the world and the harsh
beauty of the famous Skeleton Coast. What a contrast to the lush riverine
forests along the banks of the Kunene River! Damara and Kaokoland is home
to one of the last healthy populations of the Black
Rhino. Large herds of Antelopes, Zebra and Giraffe are hunted by
Lions, Hyenas, Leopards and Cheetah. The king
of this land is the famous Desert Elephant, which
we can encounter on our trip. Our safari will bring us in contact with the
famous "Red Nomads" of the Kaokoveld,
the Himba people, one of the last free roaming
tribes in Africa. We are going to track Rhino and Elephant in the dry riverbeds
of Damaraland. Our excursions into the rocky world of the Brandberg,
the highest peak of Namibia, will open stunning views into the surrounding
Namib Desert. |

Sunset at the Kwandu |

This journey takes us through an incredible variety
of mountain, savannah and river ecosystems with the opportunity to encounter
an abundance of bird and wildlife. We will
see vast salt pans, the petrified remnants of an ancient desert as well
as the biggest iron-nickel meteorite in the world,
until we finally reach the water wilderness of the
Caprivi. Experience the comfort of the lodges as well as the romance
of our tented camps, immersing yourself in the ambience of the African
bush. On our photographic hunting trips I will bring you in close range
of Elephants, Buffalos, Hippopotamus, Nile Crocodiles
and many other species. Hear the Lion roaring during the beautiful sunsets
at the Okavango, Mashi and Kwandu River. Experience the rivers on a Mokoro
(dug-out) canoe trip and meet the traditional tribes
living in picturesque villages. The magic of
Africa is best found while walking silently through bush and savannah.
We will hike along the banks of the rivers as well as on the impressive
Waterberg Plateau, where both Black and White Rhino
can be encountered and where we will have stunning views into the vast
Kalahari. |

The Namib-Dunes |
|
Deep in the South of Namibia we have the opportunity
to explore two of the most impressive deserts
Africa has to offer – the Namib and the Kalahari.
In the Namib you can find breath-taking mountain and dune landscapes crowned
by two of the World’s geological wonders; the World’s highest
sand dunes at Sossusvlei and its second biggest
canyon at the gorge of the Fish River.
In contrast, the Kalahari is characterized by its red dunes, old acacia
savannah, meandering ancient river courses and stunning
sunsets, with the stars at night appearing close enough to touch.
An impressive contrast is the wild southwest coast with the legendary
diamond areas, where Penguins and Seals live next to the creatures
of the desert. Both of these deserts are home to an abundance
of bird and wildlife, among them the hardiest antelope on earth,
the Oryx. Herds of Springboks, Ostrich and Wildebeest live here, hunted
by Cheetah, Leopard and Hyena. We explore these deserts by
vehicle and on foot; hiking in the Naukluft-Mountains in the tracks
of Zebra and Leopard, passing crystal clear water pools and moving on
foot through the dunes around Sossusvlei. A night under the stars in the
dunes is a mystical and deeply spiritual experience.

Lion in the Chobe |
|
This safari takes us into four fascinating African countries
– and introduces us to several legendary African names and places:
The Okavango, The Kwandu, The Zambezi, Victoria Falls, Livingston, Chobe,
Linyanti etc. We will travel into one of the few remaining pristine trans-frontier
wilderness areas in Africa, where you can still discover and experience
the Africa of your dreams. Passing through stunning riverine and savannah
landscapes we will head for the world-famous Victoria Falls, approaching
it via a new and exciting route through Zambia. On our adventurous photographic
hunts you will be taken within close, but safe, range of Buffalo, Lion,
Hippo and Elephant. We will meet the local fishermen and farmers in their
picturesque villages, who are still living a traditional way of life. We
will go on game drives and walks in all of the National Parks along the
route, among the highlights will be the Chobe National Park in Botswana
(which is home to one of the highest Elephant populations in Africa) and
the Mahango Park in Namibia, with an enormous density of different species
along the Okavango flood plains. Throughout this wildlife extravaganza,
it will be my pleasure to explain to you the flora, fauna, geology and the
ecosystems we’ll encounter on this fascinating safari through “Real
Africa”. |
