Experience the incredible diversity of Southern Africa - from the abundant wildlife of the Okavango Delta, Etosha and Addo National Park, to the breathtaking scenery of the Namib Desert, Fish River Canyon and the Drakensburg Mountains. Try your hand at white water rafting, bungy jumping, quad biking & dune sledding at one of the adrenaline havens, Victoria Falls, Swakopmund or Cape Town. This truly is a trip to stun the senses. Note: This is one of our Overland Adventures which are run using one of our specialist famous yellow overland expedition trucks. Trips are run on a participatory basis – you’ll be involved in the day to day running of the trip and have fun taking turns helping to shop and cook for the group. Expect to sometimes get dusty and dishevelled and not to be able to have hot showers every night. Groups of up to 24 people are led by our crew of two. Please note that the accommodation on this trip is predominantly camping, though there may be opportunities to upgrade this locally where rooms are available. Please see the trip inclusions for an approximate percentage of camping and room nights. Our Overland Adventures provide once in a life time experiences and whilst some safari activities may be included in the itinerary, or be available to book locally, this should not be considered a traditional safari holiday, though we consider that part of the fun!!

G Adventures was the perfect tour operator for my first trip to Africa with my daughter, who had already toured some other African countries. For me, the Wonders of Namibia was the perfect level of activity and touring. It was not just an overview of this beautiful country, but a total immersion into the landscape, the wildlife, and the culture. I saw, I listened, and I learned.

I thought after the first day of cycling I was going to hate this trip, but it got much much better. Being on the ground cycling through the dunes or with a random zebra crashing through a fence and bounding across the road in front of you is an amazing experience. Well worth the sometimes challengin cycling.
