SAFARI
COST & DEPARTURES ON REQUEST
If a guest is willing to share and we can match with another guest of
the same gender, the single supplement will not be charged. However, if
there is no suitable match, the single supplement surcharge will apply.
Adventurer Explorations camps consist
of serviced spacious dome tents, designed to provide comfort in remote
wilderness areas. The style of accommodation takes you back to the great
days of African exploration. Pure cotton linen bedrolls (with duvets) on
GI stretchers, bedside table with lantern and mini luggage benches
complement the atmosphere in pristine, wild camping areas. Separate
toilet and shower ‘bathrooms’ with old-style tin bucket showers and
basins and amenities create simple serviced comfort.
Adventurer camping
brings the guest closer to nature, by means of lively campfires,
hurricane lanterns, diverse activities and a warm atmosphere permeating
the camp (and its simple comforts). Adventurer camps are specifically
outfitted to create that wilderness camping feel with a clear emphasis
on essential camp comforts and maximum wilderness experience.
Guides: The entire safari is
guided and hosted by a professional and passionate trained guide who
shares in-depth knowledge to present a seamless, well-rounded
experience.
Exclusive experience: To ensure
privacy and exclusivity, most areas in which we travel are private
concessions in unspoiled and scenic prime locations. All campsites are
for the use of Wilderness Safaris guests only, while at hotels and
lodges we meet other guests.
Routes: The route followed on
this Exploration aims to track and reveal the elusive wildlife of the
desert and the life-rich, the rugged Atlantic Coast and the immense
moving dune fields of the Namib Desert. Surprisingly, the seemingly
barren desert comes to life with an amazing plethora of plants and
animals that have ingeniously adapted to their harsh surroundings –
and in fact thrive. On this journey there is also an excellent
opportunity to find even the largest of mammals surviving here – the
desert-adapted black rhino and elephant.
Transfers: To maximize guests’
travel time, a variety of transport modes that bring out the best of
each area is used: flying in light aircraft transfers (when the
traveling experience is not enhanced by road) and cross-country
transfers provide both a bird’s-eye view and an in-depth experience of
the contrasting landscapes of Namibia.
Please note that the driving leg
from Palmwag to Hoanib Camp is a full day’s nature transfer drive,
highlighting fascinating areas of the Namibia’s North West.
Group size is
limited to eight guests and all meals are included.
