Geographic Expeditions is thrilled to announce the launch of its first women-focused itinerary, a trip that will explore the wonders of Namibia, Africa. This women-only journey is designed to not only celebrate the country’s landscapes and wildlife but also its extraordinary achievements for women and girls.
Namibia has made significant strides in gender equality, leading Africa in this regard and even surpassing many parts of Europe and the United States, according to the World Economic Forum. The trip will offer an intimate and immersive experience, with safari drives, nature walks, and scenic flights that will connect guests to the country. What will further enrich the experience is the opportunity to engage in conversations with female artisans, entrepreneurs, conservationists, mothers, and teachers. These inspiring women are all working towards building a bright future for Namibia’s communities, cultures, and wild landscapes.
The inaugural itinerary is set to begin on September 1, 2024, and will feature a range of incredible highlights. From searching for leopards across the savannah and visiting the female-founded AfriCat Foundation to soaring over the rugged Skeleton Coast on a scenic flight with an eagle’s-eye view of shipwrecks and dunes, this trip promises unforgettable experiences. Guests will also have the opportunity to wander the red dunes and pale-white pans of Sossusvlei, meet with children and mothers at the Little Bugs Early Childhood Development Centre, and track black rhinoceros with a female ranger from Save The Rhino Trust. They will also have the chance to forge bonds with new friends beneath the star-studded sky at a safari lodge.
In addition, the trip will offer the unique opportunity to meet with women employed by the Penduka Development Trust, whose embroidered artworks unveil personal stories. This itinerary promises not only an adventure into the heart of Namibia’s stunning landscapes but also a meaningful and enlightening look into the lives and work of the women who are shaping the country’s future.
