点评:Before coming here we stayed at Wilderness Damaraland Camp, which felt remote, but the location of this camp is even more 'out there', surrounded by golden grasslands and granite hills.
Be prepared for some rocky roads when exploring the area, and depending on their location, the search for desert rhinos can be a full day expedition with no guarantees - we linked up with the Save the Rhino Trust team after about four hours, and approached a young male black rhino on foot. It was a well managed encounter, and we did not stay long. Despite the rough roads, I loved this drive - at one point we were off road on a ridge above the confluence of two great sand rivers, their valleys full of trees, surrounded by wilderness to every horizon - spectacular. We also saw mountain zebra and ostrich along the way.
Wilderness include a few 'surprises' along the way, which were welcome. As others have said, our guide Kanu is excellent - his sharp eyes finding a family of rock martins in their nest. We also enjoyed a sunset stroll with him from camp, so nice to just listen to the sounds and enjoy the flat terrain on foot.
The camp was rebuilt and the rooms are quite insulated from nature - a lot of glasss - but we spent a night on the outside raised bed area under the stars - highly recommend.
Apart from Kanu, we were well looked after by Fanus, George and Cendiana.

探索这片区域时,要做好应对崎岖道路的准备。根据位置不同,寻找沙漠犀牛可能需要一整天的时间,而且没有任何保证。大约四个小时后,我们与“拯救犀牛信托”团队会合,徒步接近了一头年轻的雄性黑犀牛。这次邂逅安排得很好,我们没有停留太久。尽管道路崎岖,但我还是很喜欢这次自驾游——我们一度驶上了两条沙河交汇处上方的山脊,河谷树木繁茂,四周环绕着旷野,蔚为壮观。沿途我们还看到了山斑马和鸵鸟。
荒野之旅也包含一些“惊喜”,这些惊喜令人欣喜。正如其他人所说,我们的导游Kanu非常出色——他目光敏锐,在巢穴中发现了岩燕一家。我们还和他一起在营地漫步,欣赏日落美景,聆听鸟鸣,享受平坦的地形,真是太棒了。
营地是重建的,房间与自然隔绝得很好——有很多玻璃——但我们在户外高架床区度过了一晚,沐浴在星空下——强烈推荐。
除了Kanu,Fanus、George和Cendiana也把我们照顾得很好。
