'The Southern Star: South Africa - Namibia - Botswana
- Zimbabwe'
21 Days - Cost from
£575.00 - Overland Expedition
This journey starts in South Africa's
oldest and most beautiful city Cape Town and finishes
at Victoria Falls, one of the world's most amazing
sights. Namibia is one of Africa's best kept secrets,
a land of surprising contrasts and spectacular
landscapes. An array of game can be spotted in
Etosha National Park, and in the charmingly colonial
seaside resort of Swakopmund, there are a range
of activities to enjoy, including duneboarding,
quad-biking and deep-sea fishing. The shifting
blood red and apricot sands of the Namib desert
are best viewed at the oasis of Sossusvlei, in
the heart of a vast dune field that spreads out
for thousands of square kilometres from the Atlantic
coastline. In stark contrast is the 15,000sq kilometres
of the Okavango Delta, where you will explore
the watery channels by dugout canoes. The Cedarberg
Wilderness area is a rugged mountain terrain with
bizarre rock formations jutting skyward, whilst
Fish River Canyon drops away to form the second
deepest canyon in the world, and these are only
some of the highlights of this astounding trip!
