A trip in a tented Jeep in the name of freedom
Africa: where the journey of man began, where nature gave rise to a variety of living landscapes and forms of shocking beauty, where the rites and traditions of millennial civilizations accompany everyday life and fascinate travelers. Africa: you will love it. You've been warned. (Cit. Lonely planet).
A trip to Africa southwest of the coast in the wonderful land of Namibia is fascinating you have the feeling of going back to your origins, we will see crazy landscapes, we will discover nature, we will see animals in their natural environment free, we will see the starry sky and the milky way as never seen... we will see and we will be happy to make you dream with our photographs and stories.
Planning a route if you have never done so can be very difficult, the motivations can be varied, such as the km to travel between places, sometimes you even get to make over 500 km and the roads not only the most optimal, route times, park closure times. Today fortunately we have internet, forums, specialized sites where they help you a lot, and if you want people like me who have visited Namibia for 10 years and know well and can give useful advice and some tips ...
During the tour you have to take into account the unexpected, such as piercing a tire, or breaking the power steering, this because the roads are for the greater dirt and the driving speed must be very slow in some sections, it can be difficult because you can have difficulty in helping someone since there is not a huge traffic.
Why did I call this trip to the banner of freedom? I remember as a boy when you left with a backpack, camping or car, carefree ready for new adventures.
And this will be a great adventure ... full of surprises ... after more than 10 years I decided to see Namibia with a tented jeep tour and not with the comfortable facilities of the Lodges that go beyond the primordial contact ... there are many campers and I hope to do many friendships and sharing wonderful moments ... all this with a reliable travel company ready for any situation ...
For the tour I relied on the tour operator of a friend of mine Paola, who, with my key points of the places I would like to see, will try to fit all or almost all of them.
For the preparation of the trip we chose to fly with Klm which has a good price/scale ratio , unfortunately to have the low price we had to leave 2 days before the tour and 1 day after the return of the RV.
I will try to update the site daily, where possible with wi-fi the travel diary with photos and stories. See you in 2021 ...
