Choose between a relaxing morning on the riverbank or the half day canoe adventure on the river.

After lunch you travel north to the Fish River Canyon, the second largest in the world. The Fish River is the longest river in Namibia at 650km in length, and the canyon is situated along the lower reaches of this seasonal river.
