Discovering Namibia's Hidden Gem: A Camping Trip to Spitzkoppe 

Nice one Nic. Next time pull the ladder out and use the ladder to pull the tent open. Makes life much easier. Safe travels mate.

Keep going boet, this channel is going to grow.... as Namibians we are going to support you 👊🙌👌👍.... Thanks for inspiration

That's crazy because I just got back from Namibia and this is the EXACT campsite I stayed in!

This post takes me back to my last camping trip when I switched to using Asmoke for the first time. I was a Traeger user previously, but Asmoke's portable pellet grill changed the game for me. The temperature control was far superior, within 5°F, and the grill was lighter and smaller, making it perfect for my camping adventures. The rechargeable battery lasted for the entire trip, and the convenience of being able to adjust the temperature remotely and monitor food temperature was a game changer. Plus, the wood pellets added a distinct smoky flavor to our meals that was just unbeatable. Switching to Asmoke has definitely enhanced my camping trips and I can't wait to take it on my next adventure to Spitzkoppe! #Asmoke

Hi Nick, it´s always nice to watch an overlander like you having a braai over a fire at the end of long driving and exploring day. I´m always curios about what other people eat when they go camping. We like to keep it simple in this regards; some meat, butternut with feta and spinach or with garlic and mushrooms, or just some Oklahoma Burgers with lots of onions. 🤩

Fantastic scenery, I was there in mid-October. I'll never forget it. Rooftop tent is the way to go.

incredible scenery - thanks for sharing it with us

Nice view Nick keep on showing us nice camping sites and beutiful land scape .

I've always been an avid camper and outdoor cook. I used to use Traeger+ for my grilling needs, but I found that Asmoke has truly changed the way I do outings. The battery-powered portable design of the Asmoke Essential makes it a game-changer for camping trips like the one to Spitzkoppe in Namibia you've shared. The precise temperature control and variety of flavors the wood pellets offer, makes the food taste incredibly delicious. It's also environmentally-friendly, which is a big plus for me. The convenience of not having to be connected to the grid and the ability to monitor food temperature remotely via the app, ensures a hassle-free grilling experience. It's lightweight yet efficient, making it the perfect companion for outdoor adventures. It's safe to say that Asmoke has significantly elevated my outdoor cooking experience. #Asmoke

Regards from your favourite camp in Zambia: Lukasa ;-) We will be travelling to the north of Namibia end of march; will we see on you the road somewhere?

Hahaha you are so funny. I also do a lot of safaris in Africa so a lot of what you are laughing at I soo know what you mean! have Fun!

Great work Nick. Appreciate the content. I am looking forward to seeing your content and eventually the actual sites. Thank you and safe travels with Frank...

Thanks for sharing. Awesome channel, great content. Looking forward to next videos and our 14 day drive around Namibia this Oct/Nov. Keep them coming :)

Great video with very good info. We enjoy your ideas tremendously!

Nick, I can't see how you can reach your 100,000 goal this year with monthly videos. Considering the amazing place you live, with such an incredible array of cultures and landscapes, you could probably drop a fascinating 5 minute video every day.

Ek is ook mal oor Spitzkoppe, gaan daar elke jaar vir klim saam met die mountain club. Rock climbing word hoofsaaklik in die Winder maande gedoen, die res van die jaar is te warm om te klim, dehydration gebeur maar vinnig as dit te warm is. Het jy geweet die Rock Arch het 'n voet padtjie van die ander kant af; as jy van die ander kant af loop is dit makliker om tot onder die arch te kom. Ek het gehoor die Rock Pool het nou weer water gekry, iemand wat ek ken was einde Januarie 2023 daar gewees.

I was there on the 1st of January, one of my favorite destination in Namibia

My dream is to travel Africa 😢 and I’m Namibian🇳🇦 I need to start with Namibia first

Agree pull the ladder 🪜 out and use that as a leaver to open the tent ⛺️. You will get to like it. Looks cool 😎

Never realised you were so fit!😀RTT all the way - no scorpions or cobras! We have three ground tents - remain unused. Clamshell RTT is the way to go - 30 seconds up or down but most are not as spacious as yours. BunduTop is nice but expensive just press a button! We combine our RTT with a gazebo on the ground for cooking (you can't always braai due to weather) /wind shelter and shade. Works well.

love the informative content on your channel.

Hey Nic. Some advice pls. What are the roads like from Henties to Spitzkoppe and from there up to Uis? We're planning a trip up that way with a Toyota Rav4. Thanks for all your great content!

Love watching your channels

Beautiful photography. Thanks.

Tried last June.. had to give it a pass due to severe back injury.. trying again in may this year... you whet my appetite to go there again.. thanks !

Roof top tents are great if you stay 1 night at a place or are staying somewhere where you won't be driving anywhere guaranteed....we actually use our normal ground tent way more than our roof top.

Hi Nick - lovely channel. We prefer the AluCab 'clam-style' tent. From stop to beer-in-hand its about 15 seconds. (20 if you want to get the camp chair out) LOL. Keep up the good work...

Thanks Nick, another great vid!

Nie die eerste viewer nie maar eerste commentor!! en tweede liker,,, 😃😁

Hey Nick, we were at Spitzkoppe 10-12 January, sorry we missed you

Amazing!

Coming back to Namibia and Botswana for 4 weeks holiday in December 2024 (CKGR, Moremi GR). Would love to meet you somewhere in Namibia or Botsuana for a beer at a campfire

Howzit Nic, haven't heard from you for a few months, hope you're well boet and we get an update soon! All the best from an English man who lived in Zambia in the 70s 👍

I am watching your great videos to learn about places that I would like to see in Namibia however I don’t drive because of my eyes so is there buses that I can take for day trips .I’m going to come to Namibia for my two weeks vacation by the end of October 2024 from Canada.

Dankie

I'm pro ground tent... 😎 Not taking away the quicker setup of the roof tent.

M all in with the roof tent.. Don't worry, u will take shorter time with experience..

The day you hit the jackpot, buy yourself a BunduTop tent. Definitely worth the expense ‼️ And then throw in the awning for good measure 😜

@5410Africa, put long cable ties onto your zippers... worked a treat on my Land Rover. Also, use the ladder to pull over the top section, and reduce your ladder by. run or two, to get the tent even.

Thanks for the run through of the area. Booked Spitzkoppe this week for a trip in July so the timing is excellent. Like the olive green shirt…something you can get in Nam?

Nick, are you getting Back on the Road // tanzania, kenya ?

Beautiful tent! What about Angola? April 20th

Do you carry any fire arm on these strips i am sure they not pretty safe😀 i am a new follower by the way really love your content its so authentic.

Hi, I hv been following you for your Namibia tour. Our forth coming trip next yr will be Keetmanshoop, Deadvlei, Walvis Bay, Swakopmund and Spitkoppe, kind of a loop. Besides the last 4km towards Deadvlei which I'm aware requiring 4x4 drive, can the rest of our journey as listed use 2x4? We intend just to take the shutter bus in Deadvlei. Because I feel is not worth to pay for 4x4 car just because of that little 4km stretch of our estimated 2,000km. Tks

Aaa darryls daughter😄

Roof top looks cool, will be away from crawling insects

Why is it that the US$210 per person per night seems OK to the commentators??? Daylight robbery!! Dis erger as Kaapstad se toeriste tariewe...LOL. Love your videos and info - keep it up! Regards.

👉🌍AFRICA CHABWINO 👌AWESOME, NAMIBIA 🇳🇦 👏 WORLDWIDE 🌐. AFRICA 👍ZIKHOMO

Is safe to camp on the ground with a canvas? No scorpions

How much is a Donation supposed to be in those cases (the guide) ?

Do they sell ice cube packs there
