11/01/2025

Namibia is a country on the south-west coast of Africa. It is one of the driest and most sparsely populated countries on earth. It is made up of seven regions. The Namib Desert in the west and the Kalahari Desert in the east are separated by the Central Plateau. Destinations such as Damaraland, the shipwreck-strewn Skeleton Coast, or the Kaokoveld literally echo with emptiness. Namibia is a place where the concept of ‘vastness’ can not only be truly comprehended, but also felt. It is the only desert in the world where you can find large mammals like elephants, rhinos, lions and giraffes, and small populations of desert-adapted elephant, black rhino, giraffe, ostrich, oryx, and lion can be seen in off-the-beaten-path destinations like Damaraland and Kaokoveld. These unique animals have adapted their lifestyles to survive in one of our planet’s harshest environments. The Etosha National Park affords excellent game viewing at the animal-packed waterholes and abundant predators that it is famous for. The Sand Dunes in Namibia make for the u;timate adventure playground, with the Sossusvlei Sand Dunes are some of the highest in the world. Namibia remains one of the most beautiful countries worldwide and its epic landscapes are hard to beat. It is truly a land of contrasts and offers visitors a kaleidoscope of activities and adventures to enjoy.

Zambia is our next destination - a large landlocked country that borders ten other countries. The mighty Zambezi River forms the border with Zimbabwe while Lake Tanganyika straddles the border with Tanzania and the Democratic Republic of Congo in the north. Zambia is situated on a high plateau and takes its name from the Zambezi River. In addition to the spectacular Victoria Falls Falls (named ‘Mosi-oa-Tunya’ by the local tribes translating to ‘The Smoke that Thunders’ for the immense spray and incredible noise caused by the rushing water), the country boasts a further 17 magnificent waterfalls. With awe-inspiring natural wonders, the wild Zambezi River, abundant wildlife, untamed wilderness areas, and adrenaline thrills like Ziplining across Africa’s biggest waterfall, and white water rafting down the mighty Zambezi River, Zambia offers many opportunities for an unforgettable visit.

Today we stop off in fascinating Botswana - a landlocked country bordered by South Africa to the south and east, Namibia to the west, and Zimbabwe to the east. One of Africa's most popular and exclusive safari destinations, Botswana is a fascinating world, home to well-known landmarks such as the Okavango Delta, the Kalahari Desert and the Chobe National Park. The massive Kalahari Desert (not a true desert because it gets more rainfall each year than most deserts receive) covers more than 70 percent of Botswana and touches nine African countries. About 17 % of Botswana has been set aside for game preserves and national parks. Visitors from all over the globe visit Botswana for safaris and a chance to see amazing animal species such as wildebeest, giraffes, lions, cheetahs, and elephant. The elephants at Chobe are the largest in body size of all living elephants. Botswana is also a destination for birdwatchers because many bird species stop over as they migrate and many others live permanently in the national parks and reserves. Whether your thing is safaris, game viewing, bird watching, mokoro rides, quad biking, fishing, or 4x4 off-road adventures you are sure to have a memorable visit.

06/01/2025

We start the week in Lesotho, also known as “The Mountain Kingdom”. Lesotho is a small, mountainous, landlocked country surrounded by South Africa and largely untouched by development. Lesotho's geographical formation is characterized by high mountains and deep valleys and it is the only country in the world to have all its territory located at more than 1,000 metres above sea level. This high-altitude country experiences highly variable temperatures, including very cold winters with snowfall. Lesotho is often referred to as the ‘Roof of Africa' and the ‘Switzerland of Africa' as more than 75% of Lesotho is dominated by the rugged if not picturesque mountain ranges, with only 25% considered as the lowlands. The lowest point is 1,388 metres rising to almost 3,500 metres in the Maloti mountain range which forms the border with South Africa to the north east and south west. The Maloti mountains are more than 200 million years old and Southern Africa's highest mountain peak, Thabana Ntlenyana at 3,483 metres, is located in the eastern part of Lesotho. The “Kingdom In The Sky” is beautiful, culturally rich, affordable and easily accessible from Durban and Johannesburg. The rugged countryside and mountain vistas are ideal for eco-tourism and off-road sports, hiking, and snow sports in winter.

Malawi’s tourist industry is vital to the overall economy of the country and supports huge numbers of local Malawians through employment and community projects, as well as helping conserve the country’s natural riches. Lake Malawi is the jewel in its crown.

Malawi boasts a rich diversity of flora and fauna and countless beautiful landscapes. Accommodation options on offer vary from Hotels and Lodges to self-catering cottages, and camp sites. These also offer sports and leisure activities such as golf, spas and yoga retreats.

04/01/2025

Today we visit Malawi, the second smallest country in Southern Africa. Malawi is landlocked and lies on the eastern side of Southern Africa and is described as the “Warm Heart Of Africa”. It is home to Lake Malawi, the third largest lake in Africa. South Malawi is the most populated and developed region, and Blantyre, the commercial capital, and Zomba, the old colonial capital can be found here. This region has 5 National Parks and Wildlife Reserves, and a number of forested highland areas. Central Malawi is home to the country’s capital, and most common point of entry, Lilongwe. Senga Bay is the closest point on Lake Malawi to Lilongwe. It is a fishing village and popular destination for locals. Most of the region lies on the Central African Plateau and so the scenic highlights come from the hills sitting atop the plateau, and the escarpments that descend into the Rift Valley and down to Lake Malawi. North Malawi is the least populated of Malawi’s regions, characterised by unique highland areas and dramatic lake shorelines. Chintheche is regarded by many as having some of the best beaches on Lake Malawi. Fishing is an important livelihood for many Malawians and Senga Bay is a particularly busy spot. Many locals make their way there daily to buy fresh fish from the boats. Contact us on [email protected] for more information or to have us design a bespoke tour based on your requirements.

Eswatini is a country rich in culture and natural beauty - from its mountains and valleys to forests and plains. It is also home to several wildlife reserves dotted across the country. The climate is in general subtropical and the natural vegetation includes forest (both wet and dry), savanna, and grassland. The country offers visitors rich cultural experiences, stunning scenery, wildlife, ancient rock art, rock climbing adventures and great hiking and cycling trails. Tourism, particularly from South Africa, has become a major sector of the Eswatini economy and is mainly centred on the hotel and casino complex in the central Ezulwini valley. Accommodation options vary from 3, 4 and 5 star Hotels and Lodges to self-catering cottages and apartments, and camping & caravan sites. Visitors can look forward to purchasing high-quality handmade textiles and tapestries, glassware, and a range of stone and wooden handicrafts.

02/01/2025

We start our adventure with Eswatini, formerly known as Swaziland. Landlocked in South Africa with a short border to Mozambique, The Kingdom of Eswatini is the smallest country in Southern Africa and one of the smallest countries on the African continent with no more than 200 kilometres north to south and 130 kilometres east to west as its boundaries. The name Swazi is the Anglicized name of an early king and nation builder, Mswati II, who ruled from 1840 to 1868. As one of the few remaining monarchies in Africa, culture and heritage are deeply engrained in all aspects of Swazi life. The administrative capital is Mbabane. A mixture of subsistence and commercial farming is practiced in Eswatini. The staple crop is corn, and other crops include sorghum (mainly for the brewing of traditional beer), pumpkins, beans, peas, other vegetables, citrus fruits, cotton, pineapples, rice, and to***co. The largest agro-industry is the cultivation of sugarcane and the manufacture of sugar. Also of major commercial importance are the extensive man-made forests of pine and eucalyptus, which supply timber to a wood pulp mill and several sawmills.
