BLITZ- OR SHORT
SAFARIS
in Namibia
(On
average 8 to 12 days)
& an example of a Self Drive Safari (Accommodated)
A.
The Namib desert camera (10-day photographic-
/ family safari
More a photographic experience than a safari. Learn the secrets of
the Namib;
bring the family to experience the moods, colours and - above all - its
effect on
your quintessence, of the Namib desert in Namibia.
B. Epupa wilderness trail (Standard safari version)
A HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, SPECIALIZED
SAFARI! Specialized, because you
will spend more than 80% of your time
on this safari in the last Wilderness area of Africa -
the Kaokoveld of Namibia!
This term encompasses the areas of Damaraland & Kaokoland
- world famous
for the desert Elephants, free-roaming Black Rhino and
ochre-coloured Himba!
Epupa wilderness trail (Luxury version with fly-in) -
[Although categorized
as
a
"special safari", this luxury Namibia safari is short enough to be included here as well].
C. Artist's Hideaway - short, 10-Days' seclusion in Namibia
Calling painters,
writers, poets and song writers! In fact, ANYBODY needing privacy and
seclusion to find inspiration or solace in Nature. Perhaps you simply want time to recover from
some traumatic event in your life & find yourself again - where better than close to Nature?
D. Eastern Expectations (10-days of exploring the Kalahari Desert):-
The Kalahari Desert has intrigued explorers and adventurers for decades, but
it had been
home to the Bushman,
or San people, plus its wide variety of Fauna & Flora for centuries.
Make use of this opportunity to visit
the Namibia section of the Kalahari desert.
E. Short, Namib horse trail (8-day, customizable package)
An 8-day family package in the southern Namib desert of Namibia, which includes the
horse
trail, the Sossusvlei sand dunes and the
majestic Naukluft Mountains.
F. Footloose (A short hiking safari, fully accommodated):-
A hiking
safari starting off on the edge of the Kalahari desert,
then includes the wide open
vistas of the Namib desert, as well
as the well-known Sossusvlei with its high sand dunes
and ever-changing
colours.
G. Namib Desert on Foot (An unforgettable eco-hiking experience):-
Is work pressure
& stress getting you down? Just one week off work, Saturday to Saturday,
and you will return,
feeling as someone who has just been on a long vacation. The highlight
of this short safari, is a three-day, guided hiking trail along
the Uchab river in the coastal
wilderness area of Namibia's Kaokoveld - the last
true Wilderness area in Africa!
H. Cupid's African Dream (An exotic Honeymoon safari)
This exotic honeymoon is offered as two options. Depending on your preferences,
you may
decide to choose the silence and seclusion of a desert / semi-desert environment in which
to
create these everlasting impressions. Alternatively, you may choose
the equally tranquil effect
experienced in the water world of
Namibia - no time
wasted on pitching-/breaking camp!
(Of course, NOT restricted to Honeymooners).
I. SIR CUPID (A titled Honeymoon?)
This luxury 10-day Honeymoon
in Namibia is offered to Honeymoon couples who are
interested in Cupid's African Dream,
but would possibly prefer to meet
the
Cupid-in-charge
for
a more luxurious, most important break-away of their life. If that sounds about right,
Sir
Cupid is for you!
(Obviously NOT restricted to Honeymooners).
J. The Angel's View Hiking Adventure (The prime hiking trail of Namibia):-
This outdoor adventure offers an eight-day, 120km (75 miles) hiking trail which has earned
itself the
reputation of being one of Southern Africa's most demanding routes. With
its steep
ascents & rocky terrain under-foot, this mountain trail demands a
high degree of physical
fitness.
K. Desert-to-Desert (A combination hiking/camping break-away):-
Desert is not always "just desert", experience the difference between
the red Kalahari and
the golden Namib! From the
well-known home of the San or Bushman, first inhabitants of
Africa
- The Kalahari Desert - to the oldest desert in the world - The
Namib
Desert! From
hunting & food-gathering techniques in the
Kalahari, to
the highest sand dunes in the world!
L. Active Africa (Activity-filled safari - the last 10-days option)
This adventure safari is designed especially for the true admirer of Nature,
those who do not
wish to simply 'visit' Namibia in Africa, but to truly experience it! (Normally
offered as a
14-
or 21-day, activity-filled adventure safari,
but also possible as a 10-day sectional option).
. . . even less than 8 days . . .
A. Desert Trail Hiking Safari (5-Day safari, 3-day hiking):-
The beauty of a Namib Trail is the fact that you experience so many
different aspects of the
desert – from mountainous terrain to sandy dunes. Walking is
conducted at a leisurely pace
and normally does not exceed 12 km per day.
B.
The hauntingly beautiful "Skeleton
Coast" of Namibia :-
(Although categorized under
"eco-tourism", this safari is so short [6- or 7 days], that we've
decided to include it
here as well).
Often
"beauty" is associated with "mild", "gentle' or
"soft". Now experience the beauty
created in the most inhospitable and desolate, rugged
landscapes - probably the most
formidable coastline of the world -
The Skeleton Coast of
Namibia.
Not merely a holiday,
but a true once in a lifetime
experience!
INDEPENDENT TRAVEL OPTIONS - SELF DRIVE

Namib Desert Camera - 10-days on a self drive,
