Let’s go off the beaten track

Do not miss this opportunity to book this epic adventure into the uncharted wild side of the Richtersveld. This 8-day trip will take us along the Orange River and into the heart of the rugged beauty of nothingness. Only 6 vehicles make this tour very exclusive and sought after.

We will meet up at Pofadder at the petrol station on the morning of 7 September, 7:30. I will create a w.app group closer to the time where we can discuss all arrangements.

Richtersveld 1

Conjure up a desolate and forbidding landscape, seemingly devoid of life, except for some people dotting along the horizon. Make a startling discovery upon closer inspection when the mirage dissolves into the human-like half-mens (half person) and the harsh environment proves to be a treasure chest containing the world’s richest desert flora.
