Basiese roete: Map of Trip

Pretoria, Northam, Pilansberg, Jwaneng (Botswana), Kang, Ghanzi, Gobabis (Namibia), Omaruru, Messum Crater, Brandberg, Twyfelfontein, Palmwag, Sesfontein, Puros, Kowarib, Etosha, Rundu, Katima Mulilo, Maun (Botswana), Nata, Orapa, Selebi Phikwe, Polokwane Intl

 The plan was to fly along the dry rivers of Namibia.

This included:

• The Messum River from the Messum Crater to Brandberg
• Goanatagab & Ugab from Brandberg to the Doros Crater
• Huab from Twyfelfontein to the sea
• Hoanib & Ganamub from Sesfontein to skedelkus
• Hoarusib rom the sea via Puros Canyon to Sesfontein
• Through the Caprivi Strip to Botswana.
• From Katima Mulilo via Chobe, Savuti , Moremi & Maun, to Nata
• After that towards Orapa over the Sau pan, Kubu island & Makgadikgadi pans

With round about 45 hours of flying, 17 gyros and 18 people through Namibia and Botswana the logistics was a very big challenge. Everything went smoothly thanks to the group leader and tour organiser Roelf Palm’s great planning, knowledge and expanded touring experience.

We expected a dry Namibia but experience an extremely wet Namibia. Most of the rivers had water in them and at places we experienced some rain.
