We enjoy a final brunch before departing from Okonjima Main Camp to make our way south to Windhoek. The camp staff wave us off. As you may recall from previous blogs, we are on our second coach transport, the first vehicle not coming up to our normal high standards. Our […]
This morning our guests enjoy an educational Bushman Walk with local guides. We're learning about traditional hunting methods and we view bird and animal traps, rope making and fire making. Brunch is served on our return and at afternoon tea Tristan Boehme, AfriCat's team […]
Wake up call is 5.30am. (Whoops, that wasn't advertised in the brochure!). Tea, coffee and freshly baked pastries are served from 6am and by 6.30am we’re aboard our game viewing vehicles and heading for one of the cheetah enclosures.
This morning is our introduction to […]
We left Namutoni this morning and as we headed out of Etosha National Park we are all trying hard to spot the Damara dik-dik, the country’s smallest antelope. Two of our guests catch a fleeting view of one as we drive slowly along the park road. We’ll count that as a […]
Guests enjoyed their morning game drive today. Early risers saw lions, numerous ostrich, giraffe drinking at the waterhole, impala, oryx, blue wildebeest and, naturally, plenty of springbok. The afternoon drive was also productive: elephants with young, hyeana, jackal, […]

Most guests are up early at Okaukuejo this morning, some joining the 5.30am game drive operated by the […]
The blog editor is breaking all the rules here. He (or is it she?) is writing the daily report in advance! Actually we're only outlining the day's plan. If there are any interesting stories to tell you can be sure we will include them in a future blog. However the […]
Early morning at Vingerklip Lodge is magical. The sun rises over the Eagle's Nest rock formation and the colours are incredible. Absolutely incredible. It is difficult to put into words - you really have to be here and experience it for yourself. After breakfast some […]
Leaving the Hansa Hotel in Swakopmund this morning we made a quick stop to purchase some ice cubes to keep our water supplies cool and then headed north towards Henties Bay. On route we stopped to view a ship wreck. Some of us took photos. Some paddled in the sea. Someone […]
