Description

July 17 – August 1, 2024

$21, 500 

The magic of Namibia has the world’s most spectacular and varied desert landscapes.

Perhaps it’s the arid nothingness of the Namib Desert or the stark beauty of the Skeleton Coast or the endless salt pans or the creeping dunes of Sossusvlei pan.  Whatever the potion is, those who travel to Namibia are changed forever, and they always want to go back to get another fix.  The Namib Desert, with its giant roaring dunes, spreads along the south east of the country, while the popular Etosha National Park is the star attraction in the north.

This adventure is designed for photographers and non-photographers.  Our Photographic Leaders will be guiding you to the most photogenic locations carefully planned for the best light, but also to aid you in mentally visualizing a scene before capturing the decisive moment.
