Detailed Description

Namibia is a land of awe-inspiring landscapes, diverse cultures, amazing wildlife and incredible scenery. From the Namib Desert in the south where the largest dunes in the world tower over a surreal landscape, to the vastness of Etosha National Park where big game roams wild and free. It is where the statuesque Himba tribe still lives as pastoral nomads wandering the desert and where rock art carved by the hands of ancient hunters speaks to you across the mists of time. Namibia is a country that will capture your soul and give you a Namibia vacation that you will never forget.

Beginning your journey in Windhoek, where your private guide meets you, you travel south to Sossusvlei, surrounded by the Namib Desert and the largest sand dunes in the world. Here you find landscapes of stunningly harsh beauty and discover an amazing plethora of life that survives here. Journey on to Swakopmund, a quaint Germanic town wedged between the shifting sands of the desert and the icy Atlantic Ocean, where you set off on an ocean safari to experience a host of marine life and seabirds. Enjoy a variety of adrenaline activities, explorations, and the best seafood in Namibia before moving on into the vastness of Damaraland, where ancient rock art, petrified forests and surreal mountainscapes will leave you in a state of wonder.

Continue onward as your guide leads you in search of desert elephants, rhinos and plains game in the riverbeds near Grootberg Lodge. Next, you visit the remote and enigmatic Himba tribe who give you an insight into their ancient, pastoral and nomadic way of life before you cross the Kaokoveld to Etosha National Park. Here you spend three nights traversing the park from Dolomite Camp in the west to Okaukuejo Camp in the east in search of big game, from elephants and rhinos to prides of lions. Encompassing all of Namibia’s highlights in stylish comfort and in the company of an expert guide, this journey is the ideal way to captivate your imagination.
