Bushwacked

Bushwhacked is a river-rafting and camping operation based at Fiddlers Creek on the Orange River, near Vioolsdrif in South Africa's Northern Cape.

The company specialises in guided Orange River rafting trips, combining adventure and relaxation amid dramatic desert scenery along the South Africa–Namibia border.

The campsite serves as the home base for multi-day rafting excursions, where guests typically sleep under the stars rather than in tents, given the generally clear, dry conditions.

Reviewers have noted the scenic riverside location, good facilities, and a lively bar atmosphere.
