Meals - Orange River
We provide all meals from arrival evening to departure morning. All the wholesome meals are prepared on the river rafting expedition. We source all our fresh produce locally in Namibia. However, fresh produce & other fruits are sometimes in short supply. We thus suggest that the clients bring along fresh fruits & produce to bring along on the river. Please indicate any special dietary requirements on your booking form. We cater to basic, Vegetarian, Kosher and Halaal diets. For other dietary needs, bring your own replacement products. We will provide a detailed menu to help you determine what to bring. We offer a R200.00 discount per person for dietary needs we do not cater to.
Location & Itinerary
You will start your trip from our base camp located on the Namibian side of the border – passports will thus be required. We are located about 8km from the South Africa/Namibia Border in Noordoewer.
We will welcome you on the afternoon of the 1st day, spend day 2 & 3 on the river, in the afternoon of day 3 you return to our base camp. You overnight with us and depart on the 4th day after breakfast.
Arrive at our base camp, just across the Namibian border. Our camp manager will be there to welcome you. You may want to take a refreshing swim or play a game of volleyball after your day of travelling.
Supper is served at 7pm. We start getting to know each other around the campfire and 8pm we give a “packing speech”. Here we teach and show you how to pack your luggage, liquid refreshments and personal belongings. This is a good time to ask all those questions that has been building about what to expect on river. Your friendly guide will be more than happy to put all your nerves to rest!
After an early breakfast, your guide will give you a safety talk and equipment demonstration. Here they will teach and show you how to paddle, what to do if you capsize and how to be safe when in a
rapid.
Before you go onto the river you can fill your cooler box with ice. You will spend most of the morning drifting and getting the hang of paddling!
Your first lunch break on the banks of the river, with the majestic surrounding mountains will take your breath away.
We continue downstream until we find a campsite where we can camp for the night. Sleep under the star-lit heavens above.
Discover what it is like to wake up in the desert. The day will consist of languid drifting with the current; hopping in for a swim when you wish; tossing a frisbee; or just lying back and taking it easy.
You will row until the collection point at Sjambok.
On this, the last day, you will be picked up at the end point between 2 pm and 4 pm. Well done, you rafted approximately 45km.
A drive through the semi-desert will return us all to the Base camp.
After a refreshing swim you can enjoy a few sundowners, while the guides prepare supper. You overnight with us in the camp
