Namibia is still wonderfully wild and remote, with few paved roads and great swaths of land inaccessible to vehicle travel. It is an arid land, defined by the sands of the Kalahari Desert along the east and south, and the great Namib Desert extending the length of the west coast. The variety of landscapes, colors, geological formations and vegetation in Namibia is remarkable; over every ridge, it seems, is a new scene.
Namibia is politically stable and safe, particularly in the remote areas where the safaris take place. There are regular flights into Windhoek from Germany, and from Johannesburg, South Africa.
Our outfitters here are a third-generation Namibian farming family; tough, resilient, capable, and fiercely proud of their beautiful homeland. You will quickly gain a great respect for both the guides and the horses who display some of the same enduring characteristics.
