ELUSIVE DESERT WILDLIFE
An Adventurer Exploration - 8 night / 9 day
Combination Vintage camp, Discoverer Camp, lodge overnight and serviced dome tent Adventurer camping in private concession areas and campsites.
This old-style serviced camping safari recreates a sense of adventure for the traveller seeking an authentic African experience.
Adventurer Explorations camps provide spacious dome tents, designed for 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 camp fires, 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 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 and rugged Atlantic Coast. 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 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 private charters (when the travelling 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.
