Traveling with grown up "kids"
This is a top pick! Version traduite plus bas Nov 12, Travelling with grown up "kids" If I had my reservations and thought that maybe at times, we would find ourselves excluded from the young crowd, or felt we were "extras", this is not at all what we have experienced ever ...
More Desert
This is a top pick! We left the canyon for Keetmanshoop and the ancient Quiver Tree forest. These trees are only found in this region and are actually aloe plants. They grow among rocks and acacias, living for many hundreds of years. We didn't stay too long. We wanted to ...
Into Namibia
This is a top pick! We drove through the night, whizzing by a donkey. Luckily it was in the right lane. We reached the border a little after sunset. Crossing was smooth. Our first destination was Ai-Ais (pronounced eye ice), where lies Fish River Canyon and some incredible ...
Coast to Coast...we made it!
This is a top pick! Version traduite plus bas Nov 5, Coast to Coast...we made it! "This is the wrong way" says Tristan through the car window, a grimace on his face... “What?!” I exclaim... With my map in hand, I walk to their truck where an elderly woman was ...
More tobogganing on sand
This is a top pick! Version traduite plus bas Nov 9, Sand tobogganing on the dunes again The kids had enjoyed it so much yesterday that they wanted to toboggan again today...so we ended up buying sand boards (simple rectangular masonite boards) and some wax and off we ...
The Caprivi Strip
This is a top pick! ... it to the border before it closed at six, so we camped in a German-run rest camp. My hammock hung under papayas. Namibia has been great, though mostly desert. I never felt unsafe, and everyone was kind and helpful. They have amazing bread everywhere ...
Back On the Road
This is a top pick! Yesterday we went out to nowhere at all - the welwitchia plants. Where to begin about these...? These plants are remnants of tropical forest. They have adapted to live in the some of the driest desert on earth (2 cm of rain per year - many years with no ...
Wild Encounters
This is a top pick! DOMINIQUE HERE: Day : 450 Temperature : 30 degrees Weather : Sunny Having secured ourselves some "overflow"camping at Etosha's Okaukuejo Campsite we spent 4 fabulous nights in the Etosha National Park. We didn’t want to get our hopes up about ...
Etosha 2
This is a top pick! Version traduite plus bas Nov 3, Etosha 2 "There are a lot of workers doing a lot of nothing" is what Peggy would have added on a card asking for tourists comments...Indeed, this is often true...I guess at the price they are paid, who would want to work ...
Rocks engravings
This is a top pick! Version traduite plus bas Nov 4, Twyfelfontein, rocks engravings We stayed at Aba Huab campsite The golden grass gives a soft glow to these red rocks that are erected everywhere and where 2500 rock engravings have been found so far... most of them ...
Activities on dunes
This is a top pick! Version traduite plus bas Nov 11, Activities on the dunes We stayed at Desert Sky backpackers Since it is Lance's birthday soon, the kids decided to have a surprise adventure for him and me....I will have to admit that I don't like surprises and ...
Another Missed Sunset
This is a top pick! Another cold night in the desert, we were up and waiting at the entrance gate to Soussusvlei for when they opened at 5:30am. We did the 45km to Dune 45 and climbed most of the way to the top for sunrise. I was ...
Ai Ais Hot Springs
This is a top pick! Version traduite plus bas Nov 13 Ai-Ais hot springs We got lucky because the road out of Luderitz was not as windy as when we came in... the sun is blaring and the skies are so blue...better that way when one camps!! The road to Ai-Ais is gorgeous again, ...
sand and stones
This is a top pick! When I asked my South African friend would I like Namibia he answered: 'If you like sand and stones.' Travelling through the Namib desert now, I see what he means. An abundance of sand and stones, rocks and dust. Little or no vegetation, population, or ...
Moon Landscapes and Weird Welwichias
This is a top pick! ... the 30km drive to Swakopmund we saw very little thanks to the “pea soup” that was engulfing us. Swakompund is Namibia’s coastal resort town. It has a definite German feel to it thanks to it’s distinctive architecture. It’s a ...
Caprivi Strip and Angola in sight
This is a top pick! ... passed by fields of sorghum on the long road that seemed to stretch out for ever into the distance. The border crossing into Namibia was a piece of cake. This overland truck business seems a bit easy after what had happened in east Africa. Once in ...
A taste of Namibian culture
This is a top pick! ... living in Swakopmund as well as the rest of Namibia because it used to be a German colony (South Africa later ruled Namibia until it gained independence in 1990). We were very surprised by the very European look and feel and affluence of Swakopmund. ...
Close encounters with a mongoose
This is a top pick! Banded mongoose were all around the camp, as I lay on my front to take a photo, one inquisitive the little blighters came face to face with my lens! The wildlife was much the same as the previous day. Lots of Gemsbok - ...
Bush camps and inept guides
This is a top pick! ... in the truck and our first stop was in the town of Kamanjab for a little shopping. This seemed more like how the real Namibia should be, dusty and run down. The Herero women here still wore these huge, often colourful, Victorian dresses and headgear from ...
Rolling quad bikes and biting turtles
This is a top pick! Excellent fun packed day. We signed up for a quad bike/sand board combo. After a quick ride on out semi automatic quads we stopped for about 40 minutes at a place where we sped down a steep dune on a thin veneered polished piece of plywood. ...
How not to organise an overland trip
This is a top pick! ... to Tanzania! In the end it was 1:30 before we left, due to general ineptitude it looked like we wouldn't make it to Namibia's top tourist attraction that evening! We went the first 30km down the coast to Walvis Bay, this place was occupied by the ...
Playing with the moggies
This is a top pick! A May Day national holiday in Namibia today, just like most places in the world. We did a sunrise game drive that was very nice, although we failed to spot rhinos and the only elephants we saw were 2, briefly the previous day. The level of enthusiasm ...
A Sea Of Sand
This is a top pick! DOMINIQUE HERE: Day : 440 Temperature : 25 degrees Weather : Hot, dry and dusty Dunes. Huge dunes. A sea of sand as far as the eye can see. These are the world famous dunes of the Namib Desert, the oldest desert in the world. It's really hard ...
The naked cyclists!
This is a top pick! ... Erica, and I was looking forward to that. In Namibia we stayed at Felix Unite, a very nice campsite on the Orange River. Namibia is bigger than Botswana that in turn is the size of France. 2 weeks in this amazing country is nowhere near enough. I ...
Namib Desert, by Roman
This is a top pick! ... the sun is up (so much for a sunrise on the dune! Thus the stardust shower down the Sesriem National Park’s parabolic dunes of Namibia.) Roman 10 nov. Sesriem, désert de Namibie, de Roman Mésaventure Magnum ... qu'est-ce que c'est? Il était sur ...
Dawn on Safari
This is a top pick! ... to find these out in the middle of the desert, but I am grateful after drinking 3 litres of H20. We stop at Okahandja, Namibia's largest wood carving market. Having honed my bartering skills in China and Nepal, I'm ready to make a deal. I end up buying a ...
Namibia Safari Part II

The Great Red Sand Dunes and Namibian Coast
This is a top pick! ... the park. The gates open at sunrise and its an hour drive to the big dunes. These dunes are a main tourist attraction in Namibia. They tower to 1500 ft. above the surrounding landscape. Some people snowboard here. We spent at least three hours out in ...
Resting in Swakopmund
This is a top pick! We arrived in Swakopmund before sunset and I rushed to the beach. I jumped in just as the sun touched the water. When the sun is near the horizon here it moves very fast because we are so near the equator. It was gone within a few seconds. I jumped in ...
Camping in the Caprivi
This is a top pick! ... , for apparently trying to cross the border without the necessary paper work and pay a small fortune. Once they had received their money, the police were however happy to let us cross over….. Bye Bye Namibia….it’s absolutely ...
