The Road to Namibia
Most people have never heard of Namibia even though they may know the world map very well. And yet it is one of the safest and most visually stunning countries in all of Africa. Sitting on the west coast north of South Africa and east of Botswana, Namibia is poised to become the “next big thing” tourist destination for world travel.
Our journey will start in Cape Town, South Africa with a full excursion around this beautiful city and the world renowned Cape Of Good Hope. Then we will journey north into the deserts, wild coastline and fabulous safari parks of Namibia.
From the quaint former German capital of Windhoek – the largest city in Namibia – we will journey north to two world-class wildlife reserves. At Erindi Private Game Reserve we will take a safari of a lifetime, flying our drone for amazing never before seen aerials of vast wildlife herds on the move. At dry and spectacular Etosha National Park we will see leopards, lions, elephants, rhino and more, arriving at watering holes parched with thirst.
From there our film travels along the famed “Skeleton Coast”, where carcasses of both ships and humans remind us of the frailty of man when pitted against the vast uncharted Atlantic ocean. We will then bask with seals at the Cape Cross seal colony and move on to explore the massive sand dunes near Swakopmund by 4-wheel drive vehicle.
We will journey to the border with Angola to meet the mysterious Himba tribes who extend their hair in amazing ways and coat their skin with mud against the noon day sun.
Finally we will end our journey at the famed Victoria Falls on the Zambezi River, on the border of Zimbabwe and Zambia, where we will swim with crocodiles and journey to the edge of the abyss for breathtaking views.
The road to Namibia is still mostly dirt and sand, but soon it will join the likes of every great safari destination as one of the wonders of Africa.
