All our drivers and guides are African born and bred, mostly from South Africa or Namibia. The have an in-depth knowledge and understanding of the surrounding areas as well as with the local cultures and customs. A local guide is always hired for interpretation of local culture and traditions so as to maximise information and understanding, in turn creating opportunity, growth and sustainability for the community.
With this tour, we give you a cultural-interactive experience by participating in an excursion to the Himba tribe far North in the Kunene region. This gives the traveller an insight as to the everyday life of the Himba people. Gifts and souvenirs, hand crafted and unique to the Himba’s may be purchased upon the travellers visit. This provides sustainability in a non-obtrusive way.
Without compromising safety and comfort, we have selectively chosen campsites within NACOBTA- Namibian Community Based Tourism Association. Beauty and awe-inspiring surroundings aside, we utilize 3 rest camps, Hippo Pools, Kunene Village and Spitzkoppe, all of which are community run. This affords growth and education, allowing the funds generated by tourism to be filtered back into the local community.
Our itinerary from the Kunene region in the North, South down to Palmwag affords us great opportunity to view some protected species outside a National Park and still within their natural environment. The desert elephant and the elusive Black Rhino may be spotted while travelling this wild untouched region. Look out for amongst others herd of Springbok and Oryx Gazelle.
Clients are reminded on arrival at Sesriem camp of the different refuse bins at each campsite. They are colour-coded with labels, enabling all rubbish to be divided up into recyclable divisions such as glass, cans or other.
We invite every traveller who books a holiday via us to send in a review. Because we don't run the holidays they're completely independent and unedited... remember to read between the lines though, as two people on the same holiday can have different views!
