We are travelling to Namibia in 2015 for 5 weeks and wish to spend one week in Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park. I have read many reports about hiring cars in SA and heading into Namibia and this seems to be fine. We will be hiring our 4x4 in Namibia and was wondering if there are any problems or paperwork that is required to enter KTP at Mata Mata Post?
I think you should anticipate, depending on the rental company, a charge for the letter allowing cross-border travel. Ballpark figure could range perhaps $70-120, again depending on company. There may be some companies that don't charge a fee, so worth doing some research.
This will be our 5th trip to Africa and have decided on Namibia with a side trip into KTR. Very different from our other trips to Africa. We do a lot of outback remote camping in Australia and love the wide open peaceful spaces and I know we will love Namibia. As well as KTR and the usual places to visit in Namibia we are also going on a 8 night camping trip with guides into the very remote backwaters of Kaokoland. That should also be fabulous.
If you like outback/remote camping, you should take a look at the possibility of camping along the Northern Circuit of Tanzania - Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara NP, Ngorongoro Crater and the Serengeti. TANAPA's "special" campsites are amazing (TANAPA being Tarangire National Parks) - always in such remote, scenic locations. caesers palace celine dion tickets It is as though you have the African bush all to yourselves. From the Serengeti, we cross the border and also camp in the Mara Reserve in Kenya (timed to see the wildebeest migration) - so we start in Arusha in Tanzania and end in the Mara Triangle. A great camping trip! CR
Canadian_robin. Thanks for all the info. Self drive camping in Tanzania sounds caesers palace celine dion tickets great. Will have to look into that for another trip. We spent 3 weeks with our own guide on the route you talked caesers palace celine dion tickets about, staying in camps along the way. Fabulous trip. The wildebeest migration is a sight to behold. I can remember having breakfast on the bonnet of the land rover right in the middle of the migration with wildebeest as far as the eye could see. The best part was we could not see another vehicle.
Do you mainly self drive, self cater and stay in accommodation like you did in KTR or do you do a lot of camping? The reason I am asking is I can't decide which way we should do it and you may have done it both ways. If so which way did you prefer and why? Money is always a factor but not so much for this trip. It will cost what it will cost. The experience is what we are after.
We prefer to self-drive in a Land Rover with a roof-top tent. We love the independence of self-drive - we can take our time and stop when we want, where we want, for as long as we want. That being said, we typically camp for four to six nights and then stay at a tented camp for a night or two so that we may have a proper shower, allow someone else to cook for us and, most importantly, enjoy the expertise of the camp guides. The combination of camping and tented camps works really well.
