The Growcery Camp lies in the Richtersveld in South Africa's Northern Cape, on the banks of the Orange River. The camp is 22 kilometres from the border with Namibia, making it a practical stop along the way.
From camp, you look towards the mountains of Namibia. During the day, you can take a SUP, kayak or raft onto the river, giving you a break from time behind the wheel.
For the night, you can choose a private campsite or a shared camping area. In the evening, you can sit beside the campfire with the river and stars around you.

In Kruger, you scan the bush through your binoculars from your 4x4, searching for rhinos and lions. A few days later, you're looking through your diving mask at manta rays off the coast of Mozambique. On this 22-day self-drive journey, you explore three countries, each with its own distinct character. You drive through national parks at your own pace, camp by the sea and lace up your hiking boots again in eSwatini. From exciting game drives to relaxed beach days, there's no need to choose between adventure and relaxation.
