Profile

African Explorers is a Namibia-based adventure guiding and expedition company specialising in off-grid safari routes, guided self-drive journeys and remote 4×4 travel through some of Southern Africa's most isolated landscapes.

Founded by Marcel Meier after years of freelance guiding, African Explorers focuses on the roads less travelled: Damaraland, Kaokoland, the Kunene, Van Zyl's Pass, Epupa Falls, Namibia's ephemeral river systems, Khaudum, the Zambezi Region, Botswana's Okavango Delta, Zambia, Zimbabwe and Victoria Falls.

The company works with a small fleet of fully equipped vintage 4×4 vehicles, including Land Rover Defenders and Toyota Land Cruisers, creating a nostalgic and highly personal expedition style. The emphasis is on authentic adventure, careful route planning, remote landscapes, wild camping, local communities and experiences far away from mass-market tourism.

African Explorers is especially relevant for travellers interested in off-grid safari travel, guided self-drive expeditions, remote 4×4 routes, Damaraland, Kaokoland, ephemeral rivers, desert landscapes, desert-adapted elephants, wildlife tracking, photography, human-wildlife coexistence, cultural learning, family adventure travel and cross-border Southern Africa expeditions.

Typical journeys may include guided or guided self-drive expeditions, camping-based travel with occasional lodge stays, remote route planning, real off-road driving, wild landscapes and community-owned camps.

African Explorers is available by direct professional enquiry. WHYNAMIBIA does not publish instant booking availability for this profile.
