Namibian Community Encounter
You'll spend the night at the ˜Africat Foundation' where you'll see cheetahs, lions and leopards whilst learning how these amazing animals are being protected
The red sand dunes of Sossusvlei are said to be the highest in the world. Climb one before dawn breaks and you'll be amazed as they change colour with the rising sunNamibia's wildlife is nothing short of spectacular - from the imposing forms of elephants and rhinos to small brightly-coloured birdlife. Etosha is a premier game viewing destination, and its waterholes attract prides of lions, herds of impala, springbok, giraffe, kudu, wildebeest, zebra and oryx.By contrast, the coast offers thousands of fur seals, flamingos and the opportunity to see dolphins
On this Hands On Adventure you experience the amazing cultural heritage and variety of Namibia. You spend two days in a community-based tourism project run by San bushmen in the North East. The San will teach you about their way of life and impart their legendary knowledge of animals and survival. They will take you on walks where you can learn to track wild animals and gather bushfood. Please be aware that facilities in the camp are basic - this experience is not about comfort but about learning and supporting the efforts of the local communities to preserve their knowledge and heritage.
