This adventurous ride includes some of the Namib’s most breath-taking desert landscape. From the great dune sea of the central Namib to the edge of the infamous Sperrgebiet (German for restricted area). This ride covers very diverse desert terrain. From the rugged Tiras Mountain Reserve to the immense grassy plains dotted with inselbergs (island mountains). As well as to the dunes of the Namib Sand Sea. This safari starts in the Tiras Biosphere Reserve and ends at Klein Aus Vista. This is near the home of Namibia’s wild horses.
You will visit the wild horses (by vehicle) on the last day of the safari as well as the historic town of Luderitz and the ‘ghost-town’ of Kolmanskop with its interesting German-colonial architecture.
Note: this is a fairly challenging ride and not for inexperienced riders, but both intermediate plus and advanced riders will find it comfortable. It is however undeniably the most scenic safari with the added thrill of seeing the wild horses at the end of the ride.
