Flowers of Namaqualand (4/6 Days)

4-DAY TOURS: Once again we offer our ever-popular 4-day flower tours to the real Namaqualand - the Kamieskroon and Springbok areas far from the ’easier-to-reach’ areas nearer Cape Town. Here are the classic displays of worldwide fame. We base ourselves at the Kamieskroon Hotel in Kamieskroon, home of acclaimed photographer and raconteur Colla Swart. From here we go on flower expeditions with our guide, accompanied on one full day by a local specialist guide. We also tour the dramatic landscape with its huge rocks, succulents, and mineral wealth, opening our eyes to the fact that Namaqualand is not only a venue for the famous but transient flowers, but a permanent amphitheatre of semi-desert grandeur.

6-DAY TOURS: These new longer tours include the core Kamieskroon portion described above, and an additional 2 nights and days in the Nieuwoudtville and West Coast areas. This gives more opportunities for good flower displays and a wider range of flower species, plus extra delightful and varied scenery
