We (Johan and Federica) recently did a Cape to Victoria Falls CV21 camping tour and had the most roaring experience in Etosha. Firstly… in the 6 years I have guided in this park, I have never ‘not’ found the lions (touch wood). So yes, they are normally on the tick list. But our experience this time was one to remember.

I (Wouter) just came back from another successful BT14 Wild Side safari trip through South Africa, Botswana and Zambia with 10 very lucky people from Germany and Switzerland. Not only lucky because of the plentiful rare animal sightings we had, but also just lucky that we had the opportunity to experience the Botswana bush 7 nights in a row from a camping perspective.

Sfiso and Steff just returned form a South Africa Rainbow Route SAa17. Only by visiting and seeing with their own eyes the beauty of the Wild Coast will one understand why this coastline is such a popular destination. The name “Wild Coast” is so very accurate in many ways, a stretch of 250 km of unspoilt dunes, deep estuaries and rich riparian forests that is part of the Transkei and never really fell under colonial rule. On the other hand the area is known for strong north-easterly winds and counter winds that create enormous waves which are highly dangerous. The rolling grassland and the sharp cliffs, sandy beaches and the forests form this spectacular landscape that takes ones breath away.

Annika recently returned from a NBa21 Southern Circle tour. She had this to share...  September in Botswana is usually very dry. The vegetation is brown and yellow and everyone, including wildlife, is waiting for summer and the first rains. The fact that most of the country is very dry during that time, makes the Okavango Delta an even more special place. The amount of water in the delta depends on the rains in Angola, where the river originates.
