Laid back itinerary with plenty of time to explore. Easy days, no hard trekking, good roads, game drives and wildlife. Loads of time for outrageous adventure activities and excellent tribal content

Zambia, Botswana, Namibia, South Africa, this is real adventure travel. So you have decided to travel to Southern Africa and probably are after a Namibia safari. If you have four weeks to spare and want to do and see as much as possible without rushing, then this could be perfect adventure holiday. The essence of this journey is to travel overland across Namibia and Botswana without time pressure and to allow the group to do whatever is available. There is tons of adventure activities to do, some of which are included (you don't go to Africa not to see wildlife) and other things such as sky diving is up to you. Whatever you finally decide to do on this overland adventure tour you will explore the Namib Desert, (Africa's most stunning desert), see plenty of animals and do things that you never thought you would do, or even want to do. That's what Dragoman's adventure tours are all about. Your standard Africa safari is all well and good but when you get back home and mention that you have been walking with cheetahs, your friends may not believe you, but you will have the memories and the photos. Hey, it's tough going home after overland travel.
