Luxury Cape Namibia Route
OVERVIEW
This is the perfect 2-3 week road trip for Capetonians looking for a winter holiday adventure, and those wishing to experience the dramatic changes in scenery from the Cape to Northern Namibia. The route winds north of Cape town through the Cedarberg mountains, across the orange river to the Fish River canyon. You are then lucky enough to drive through the Namib desert, one of the oldest deserts in the world, to the skeleton coast then into the Erongo Mountains. You hand in your car in Windhoek, or return to Cape Town, stopping off in the Kalahari desert en route south.
EXPERIENCES
