Taking our Land Rover to NAMIBIA (Mamili NP) - Exactly one year after we left Europe // EP.50

We are entering Namibia with our Land Rover Defender, after more than 50.000km, we are celebrating 1 year on the road, and we are doing it by visiting some of the most stunning areas of Namibia, and seeing the king of the jungle for the first time.

After two amazing weeks with our family, we leave Lusaka behind and drive towards the Zambezi river. We are taking one of the worst tarred roads in Africa, the M10 connecting Livingstone with Sesheke. It looks like it has been hit by meteorites, the potholes are so big that a car fits inside them.
We enjoyed a beautiful evening at the Zambezi , before crossing to Namibia. Two people recommended us, to meet Keith in Katima, and we could miss the chance to do this.

We use the time to enjoy the Caprivi area and doing a self-drive safari in Mamili National Park, now known as Nkasa Rupara National Park. It as stunning park, rarely visited. It is usually called the Mini Okavango as it gets flooded in the wet season, creating islands. It is just paradise for wildlife. And we were lucky to be alone and see three different lions , really close. We absolutely loved our time in this park, and we consider it one of the best safaris in Africa.

Enjoy The Ride!
