An expedition led by Christophe Courteau, who has been \u00c9tendues Sauvages&#8217; expert on this destination for over ten years.<\/p>\n<p>To offer something different, a few changes have been made to the 2019 expedition: more time in Skeleton Coast National Park, a new bivouac far to the north near the Kunene River (which marks the border with Angola), a return by taxi plane from this region, and more.<\/p>\n<p>For more information (dates, rates, itinerary), contact Laurent at 01.77.37.03.10 or via our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.etendues-sauvages.com\/devis-contact\" target=\"_blank\"
