After leaving Livingstone, we head for the Caprivi Strip in Namibia and stay on the beautiful Kwando River in Nkasa Rupara National Park – Namibia’s largest protected wetland area with many permanent and seasonal waterways and floodplains; it is the corridor for elephant and buffalo migration, and home to over 450 bird species and a variety of animals, including many rare and some endangered species, featuring lions, Namibian cheetahs, leopards, spotted hyenas, wild dogs, roan antelopes, impala, kudus, baboons, warthogs, rock monitor lizards, and water monitor lizards. More remote and less visited than the Okavango Delta, the park offers a much more wild and private experience. Stay in a rustic and comfortable unfenced lodge and go on a 4x4 safari drive through the park.
