Africa – Namibia — 8 Comments

  1. Fantastic photos & info, Greg & Karen! It looks you took the same route we have planned, so it is good to see our decisions confirmed, and you have just made us MORE excited for our House Exchange to Namibia in December. Cant wait. Hope we get to see all that you enjoyed. I agree, it doesnt have to be too expensive to visit Africa. We are very lucky – our House Exchange includes a rooftop camper! (but those lodges sure look tempting!)

    • Hey E, you are going to have a grand time.
      I should probably do a dedicated post just to the lodges — they are stunningly done, and I’ve really not done justice to them. Almost every single one of them was a standout experience in itself. Karin and I over and over again just looked at each other with wide grins and said “we’re in AFRICA!!!”.
      I’ll put a few more photos in my next post (Zimbabwe).

  2. Thank you, Greg and Karin! You outdid yourselves with this trip log and it was a pleasure to read. I’ll never make it to Africa I’m sure, so this is a very nice substitute.

    • Steve,
      You might be surprised at how affordable it can be to visit Africa. Flights can be bought for $1000 or so (round trip) if you shop carefully. As for ground travel, going for the lower-cost group tours can be done for as little as $200/day. So $3000 for a week-long safari is quite possible with careful shopping and planning.

    • Greg,
      Your posts are absolutely stunning and timely. Linda and I are just starting our planning to visit Africa. Your posts are inspirational and will give us a ton to think about in our itinerary.
