I take private guests for 10 days of wild camping in the remote, untouched African wilderness of Namibia. A world without roads or fences, where elephant, black rhino and even the very rare desert-adapted lion roam.
These 4x4 expeditions are very different from ordinary safari's. We're not travelling in a group. In fact, we may not see any other humans for days. There will be no noisy private bankers at the campfire. When we wake up in the morning we don’t know where we will sleep tonight.
We're there to immerse ourself in nature. To adapt to the silence and the beauty of the African wilderness. We enjoy anything that crosses our path, but we're not here to chase the Big Five. We will probably meet the people from the local Himba tribe. But we take it the way it comes. We're not there to impress the people at home with our stories and images. We're there to be awed ourselves.
Yes, this is a rather adventurous way of travelling. But it is remarkably comfortable at the same time. We cook on the campfire and warm our beds with a hot stone. We travel with a powerful and reliable 4x4 with 2 comfortable tents on the roof. And there's even a fridge on board. Because we may be roughing it a bit, but there’s no such thing as an African sundowner without a decent gin-tonic ;-)
We simply use what is available and we only bring what is not (like our gin-tonics and those juicy lamb chops). And we make a point of leaving as little traces as we possibly can. We never feed the wildlife, we don’t consider the local tribal people a tourist attraction, we leave our camping spots as impeccable as we found them and we don't drive outside tracks or riverbeds.
So.
Are you ready for the real McCoy?
