SOUTHERN SKIES ADVENTURE PARTICIPATION CAMPING
19 Days/18 Nights

Victoria Falls to Cape Town

Note 'The Northern Quest' is the same tour, but in the reverse direction


Gasp at the most spectacular natural wonder of them all, Victoria Falls - Mosi-oa-Tunya, 'The Smoke that Thunders'. Hold on to your hat (and everything else) as you try to tame some of the most electrifying white water rapids anywhere in the world. Or give in to sanity and slip gently along the upper Zambezi watching the wildlife come to drink. A whole world away we discover the mysterious Okavango Delta. Gently poling through these winding waterways we view the teeming bird and wildlife.

Namibia means 'open plains' in the ancient Hottentot language. Its vast horizons and moonlike terrain give a feeling of space and freedom. Etosha is a unique National Park. With its flat open saltpans it's easy to see why the local people call it 'the place of dry water'. The Namib Desert is said to be one of the oldest in the world and you will climb some of the world's highest dunes at Sossusvlei.

Your adventure safari ends at the fairest Cape beneath the majestic Table Mountain.

Nothing can compare to sitting around a blazing campfire at night, under a canopy of stars in a spectacular wilderness area, listening to the sounds of Africa. Adventures generally appeal to the 25 – 60 year age group, who are active and have an interest in nature and the outdoors.


PARTICIPATION CAMPING ADVENTURES
On a participation camping adventure your participation and involvement is part of the fun. You assist the guide with the making and breaking of camp, quickly and easily erecting and dismantling your tent and other bush camp essentials. A camp assistant/ cook helps with the cooking.
