    Wildlife of Namibia Adventure Namibia

    Wildlife of Namibia Adventure Namibia Less well known than traditional “safari countries” nearby, Namibia is the best kept secret wildlife destination of southern Africa! This vast, spectacular and sparsely populated country harbours some of the most impressive animal populations on the entire continent. Namibia’s dry landscape makes water a prized commodity for wildlife, so wildlife is super-concentrated and really easy to observe at water holes. During previous trips, up to forty game animal species have been sighted at a single water hole! This, combined with relatively low numbers of competing tourists, make Namibia one of the best destinations in Africa to photograph big mammals and birds up close and personal! This expedition is specially designed to showcase Namibia’s very best wildlife, landscape and cultural attractions. From gigantic sand dunes, to the spectacular Skeleton Coast, enormous seal colonies, to ancient rock paintings, visits to fascinating Namibian tribes, and of course, the country’s best game reserves! The accomodation during this trip is excellent. The desert lodges where we stay are luxurious and beautiful (generally between 4 and 5 stars). Enjoy amazing wildlife by day, and wine and fine dining by night! ONE OF OUR BEST EVER EXPEDITIONS! Previous groups have left Namibia completely spellbound! During past trips, we have encountered African bush elephants (the tallest in Africa), white rhinos, black rhinos, giraffes, lions, leopards, cheetahs, serval, caracal, brown hyena, spotted hyena, black-backed jackal, crested porcupine, plains zebra, mountain zebra, springbok, black- faced impala, greater kudu and many more. We typically see several species of eagles, flamingos, vultures, hawks, kites, falcons, owls, herons, storks, waders, hornbills and many other birds! COST: US$3,715 per person for 12 days / 11 nights (all inclusive from start point to end point) (equivalent to approximately UK£2,750 or €3,275 at time of publication).

    North American Deserts Chihuahuan - Great Basin Desert - Sonoran – Mojave

    North American Deserts Chihuahuan - Great Basin Desert - Sonoran – Mojave http://www.desertusa.com/desert.html In most modern classifications, the deserts of the United States and northern Mexico are grouped into four distinct categories. These distinctions are made on the basis of floristic composition and distribution -- the species of plants growing in a particular desert region. Plant communities, in turn, are determined by the geologic history of a region, the soil and mineral conditions, the elevation and the patterns of precipitation. Three of these deserts -- the Chihuahuan, the Sonoran and the Mojave -- are called "hot deserts," because of their high temperatures during the long summer and because the evolutionary affinities of their plant life are largely with the subtropical plant communities to the south. The Great Basin Desert is called a "cold desert" because it is generally cooler and its dominant plant life is not subtropical in origin. Chihuahuan Desert: A small area of southeastern New Mexico and extreme western Texas, extending south into a vast area of Mexico. Great Basin Desert: The northern three-quarters of Nevada, western and southern Utah, to the southern third of Idaho and the southeastern corner of Oregon. According to some, it also includes small portions of western Colorado and southwestern Wyoming. Bordered on the south by the Mojave and Sonoran Deserts. Mojave Desert: A portion of southern Nevada, extreme southwestern Utah and of eastern California, north of the Sonoran Desert. Sonoran Desert: A relatively small region of extreme south-central California and most of the southern half of Arizona, east to almost the New Mexico line.
