4-tägige Entdeckertour in Kleingruppen
Westküste, Cedarberge, Sandveld und Namaqualand
In spring the Cape West Coast, Cederberg, Sandveld and Namaqualand explodes into tracts of wild flowers, a spectacle which Mother Nature only shares with us for a limited period of time. This region receives little rain during the year, but after the winter rains, this entire landscape comes alive with a floral display of wild flowers that is difficult to imagine. On this Tour we explore this arid, rugged remote re countryside, passing through historical villages and we get to share this Gift of Nature with the Country Folk who have made this arid landscape their Home. This Region is well known for its diverse ever-changing climate which ranges to the extreme, but at the same time provides us with spectacular scenery, changing the countryside into a pleasure for the eye to behold. For lovers of Nature, you cannot miss this Tour. On this 4Day/3 Night Tour, we cover an extensive area of the Countryside, as this will give us additional opportunities to explore the countryside, searching for flowers. This is an Explorer Tour, and we may deviate slightly from the itinerary, to accommodate the interests of the Guests on Tour and to search for where the Wild Flower displays are the best.
PLEASE NOTE
As this type of Tour is heavily dependant on Mother Nature and adverse Sea and Weather conditions, we simply cannot guarantee that we will see all of the Flowers, Whales or other Wild Animals on every Trip.
