Hi there,
I am riding to Namibia for the 4th time. It's my favourite place to ride in southern Africa and I will be riding overland from Namibia to back home in Zanzibar. During one of my previous trips (2007) I tried to pass through the gate at the park but they did not let me, citing it was illegal to enter the park by motorcycle.
Can you confirm that you did indeed enter the park by getting a permit at the gate? What permit did they issue? Does anyone else have any further and more recent experiences concerning this?
Regards,
Eric
