Hover Safaris are the easiest, coolest and most time efficient way to explore Namibia. 4X4 driving is good fun, but no one comes to Namibia to spend four out of ten days driving. See Namibia from above, and hover when you feel like investigating a herd of elephant or an ancient crack in the earth's crust. See the whole of Namibia in two weeks at a relaxed pace while your driving counterparts spend half of their time in the car and see half of your itinerary. Perfect for those travelling a long way with little time available away from the office.

Abenteuer Afrika Safari does it all.  From fully independent travellers to groups of two hundred or more, Abenteur Afrika will provide you an unforgettable, first class African experience.  They cater to over 9,000 clients per year, running  multiple tours per week, each tailor made to the guests’ specifications, entertaining them all over southern Africa, from Etosha, to Victoria Falls, to Madagascar, always sure to feature Swakopmund and its local activity providers heavily in the itinerary.

On one of their latest tours, they took a group of 181 Belgians from a large corporation, broke them into three groups, and provided each of them activity filled excursions to Swakopmund, Sossusvlei, and Etosha, each group at a different time.  Speaking as someone who makes a living largely while sitting at home on his bum behind a computer,  the scope of this challenge seems to me the logistical equivalent of solving world hunger.  If they weren’t so busy, I’d suggest we ask them to try!

Travel Magic is owned and operated by Joerg Bueche.  I met Joerg in 1995 while I was coaching his son, Alexander, in gymnastics.  I have looked at other agencies, and I have tried to find tickets on my own, but I have never come close to matching Travel Magic for prices and range of options.  Now I don't bother looking around, I just go to Travel Magic for all my travel needs.  That is why Travel Magic is the official Travel Agency for Leisure Times Magazine.
