If you subscribe to the notion that the world has become a small, humdrum place, take a gander at Namibia. Straddling two immense deserts—the Namib along its south Atlantic coast and the Kalahari in the east—it’s a land of unique wildlife (such as the rare desert elephant) and fantastic, otherworldly landscapes. Namibia is fast maturing as a safari destination.
Based from our delicious wilderness camp at Sossusvlei, we marvel (the response is unfailing) at the highest dunes on earth (at nearly 1,000 feet they trump New York’s Trump Tower by a couple of Shaquille O’Neals). We safari into the vast interior of Damaraland, a vast, rocky desert overseen by the gaunt and looming Brandeberg Mountains, the country’s highest. And at Serra Cafema, a new and ultra-remote camp in the country’s extreme northeast, accessible only by aircraft, we revel in a comfortable, yet bracingly primordial experience of the earth untouched.
About Geographic Expeditions in Africa. Since much of our Africa business consists of privately arranged safaris, we’re adept at hiring rigorously professional guides with the talent not only to entertain, but also to educate our travelers. Our roster of guides is Africa’s finest (a claim we’re happy to back up). Among our notable ventures: we’ve worked with Richard Leakey, constructed safaris for the Walt Disney Imagineering Team, and helped bring Africa to Hollywood, with location work on the films Out of Africa and The Lion King.
