French passeport. Namibia to South Africa. With a foreigner car. Very easy border.

Namibia side take like 5 minutes.

South Africa side was quick at the immigration but at the custom takes almost an hour... They did not know what to do.

First they told us that we do not have to do anything for our car, we said that normally we should do a TIP or the carnet but they did not know about that... So we asked around and same answer... So we get up in our car when a custom manager called us and told us that the person that we had at the desk did wrong and we have to do a TIP or stamp the CPD...
Si be care you really need a TIP or a CPD especially if you have a left hand car.
Only few people know what to do so ask for a manager if they do not want to do nothing.

Important : The CPD is not required for South Africa. You can give them the CPD if you have it. But if you do not have it they can do a TIP for 6 month. Free of charge.

Nice people just not competent enough.

Small green strip against a wall with a mural. Across is the Transit-Police. They are very nice people. Quiet night.
Plain street parking so no facilities, but if you ask kindly the police might help you out.

Stayed here three nights during a big snow storm and had no issues! Good Verizon reception. For the last two nights we were joined by a couple semis who stayed the night but there’s plenty of space. Great views of the mountains around. Cows roaming nearby too!

We got here after a rafting tour with the company “Adrenalina Rafting” on the Rio Pacuare. We would recommend to book a day tour with them. It’s really fun.
You end up here at a Restaurant. They have showers.
Maybe you could use the showers without doing a tour. Just als kindly.

Plenty of room with different paths leading to the river bank. Google satellite view can guide you well. I pitched a tent for a night and it was quite and peaceful.

About 5 miles down a mounded, rutted, somewhat clay dirt road is a very cool spot. The view is ridiculously amazing, looking out and down on some beautiful topography. The sites are gravel pull-offs or areas for tents with fire pits and picnic tables. There are even a couple pit toilets. It is stellar, though the road could use grading to flatten the ruts out. Would recommend.

Large parking. Locals and the bartender of the Tipsy Tiki confirmed it was ok the sleep in the parking (even with the sign that said otherwise, see picture). There are RV's doing that from time to time.
The rains goes by 4 times a day, but it just honk once per passage.
Large rings could probably fit. Be kind enough to take something to drink or eat on one of the two bar-restaurants.
