Have you ever met a real Bushman from Africa? Well, if you go to Ghanzi, you will. I don’t think you’ll want to live like a local though as it will take you way back. I had such a fun time on this safari with Wold Dog Safaris.
This is the tiny town at the edge of the mighty Victoria Falls which is fed by the Zambezi River from Zambia. It’s a great little town to explore and yes it has a huge tourist attractions next to it :-). So of course its worth checking out.
If you’ve never seen the Victoria Falls, you need to do so. I’ve longed to see these for a very long time. So when the opportunity to work with Wild Dog Safaris in Namibia, I jumped at it. Most visitors only go to the Falls on the Zimbabwe side, but the Zambian side is pretty amazing as well. So make it your destination the next time you are in the area.
Livingstone, Zambia is quiet town that sits just across the border of Zimbabwe within close proximity to the Victoria Falls so it benefits from that economy. It’ a small town of working class people with a vibrant market and craft scene.
Being able to get close to animals in the wild makes our adrenaline run wild. Chobe National Park is one of those places where you can ride in an open jeep or on a boat and get up close and really personal with the animals.
Dune 45 is one of the many Dunes that are formed in the Namid desert. The allure is that you can climb to the top before sunrise and wait.
266. You’ve perhaps been to Grand Canyon in the U.S., these are not as wide and large, but stands on their own.
This area has a large amount of wildlife as well as natural flora and fauna. The wetlands are vast providing a place for the animals and birds to roam freely and drink. It’s an amazing place that seems to just go forever and a day.
As small as small towns get this is it. This used to be the place where most who come to this area of Namibia get their supplies. Another place has opened up in Sesriem just south of here, but its still a place to stop. It also has accommodations as well in case you are tired and can’t make the entire trip. Plus the apple crumb pie is pretty amazing at the onsite Bakery.
This is my first time on a Game Reserve and its truly amazing. The landscape change so often, its unbelievable. From animals and birds in the wild, nothingness, to short trees, to a dry lake to a lone green tree with barren lands around it, this is Etosha.
