International Trips Committee Update.
6 to 25 April 2013 the 20 day overland trip (from Cape Town) to our northern neighbour Namibia have now been finalised.
The trip, led by CBC member and specialist bird guide Japie
Claassen, will cost R22 000pps (with a R2000 single supplement). Costs are dependent on numbers and this figure is based on 12 to 14 participants.
Members will experience this diverse country with its variety of habitats from the Namib Desert, the Walvis
Bay / Swakopmund coastline to the northern boundary along the Kunene River, targeting its many special birds, a number of which are endemic to this fascinating destination.
We have already had a number of enquiries and interested members can obtain a detailed itinerary and additional information from
Johan Schlebusch at johan.g.schlebusch@gmail.com
or on 021 685 7418 / 082 804 9025.
Our second departure is 16 November to 1
December 2013 and is to Ghana in West Africa. This will be a 16 day adventure
run in conjunction with local operator Ashanti African Tours.
It will cover varied habitats from rain forest to savannah and should produce in excess of 400 species including such mouth-watering birds as the iconic Yellow-headed Picathartes.
The estimated tour cost is +/- 2000 Pounds Sterling and interested members can obtain additional information and a detailed itinerary from
Johan Schlebusch at the above e-mail address / contact numbers.
