This adventure takes us to several exciting destinations and is much, much more than a pure birding trip.

This trip combines the sparsely populated semi-desert of Bushmanland, with its exciting and highly desirable South African endemic birds, with the stark beauty of the vast mountain desert known as the Richtersveld. It also provides a juicy taste of the floral splendour of springtime Namaqualand and the rugged beauty and mystique of the Diamond Coast

The mountain kingdom of eSwatini offers diverse habitats, spectacular scenery, excellent birding and a true return to nature in tranquil surroundings.

Spectacular sightseeing, flower watching and birding in the closest and most accessible place to see a variety of restricted Drakensberg endemic bird species.

We visit one of the great treasure-houses of the botanical world, haven to more than 3000 different floral species. Many of these, for a few weeks in springtime, burst into riotous life, clothing the countryside in a spectacular mantle of orange, yellow and white blooms. Namaqualand also sustains a wide variety of perennials: geophytes, dwarf shrubs and a huge number of succulents. This is the best time of the year for birding , as many of the birds are opportunists which move into the area and breed after winter rain.

This superb tour combines the stark beauty of the vast mountain desert known as the Richtersveld with several highly desirable South African endemic birds. It also provides a juicy taste of the floral splendour of springtime Namaqualand and the rugged beauty and mystique of the Diamond Coast.
