ITINERARY:

Day 1 & Day 2
Saturday & Sunday
Namib Naukluft Park - Sesriem - Sossusvlei
Our journey begins in Windhoek and takes us via bush land savannah to the edge of the escarpment, which demarcates the beginning of the Namib Desert. After a steep descent down the Spreetshoogte pass with its awesome vista we find ourselves in the vicinity of Sossusvlei, an area marked by some of the highest sand dunes on earth.
An early morning start provides an artists palette of colours as the sea of sand changes with sunrise. Enjoy the crisp morning air while clambering some of the many dunes surrounding Sossusvlei and Dead Vlei. We go back in time when exploring the 30-metre deep Sesriem Canyon, which was formed 18 million years ago by the erosive force of the Tsauchab River.
Accommodation: Sossusvlei Lodge

Day 3 & Day 4
Monday & Tuesday
Swakopmund
Leaving Sossusvlei, we travel via mountain ranges and scenic canyons into the Central Namib Desert; with some luck we come across Springbuck, Oryx, Ostriches and elusive Mountain Zebra. We visit the Welwitschia plains and the Moon landscape in the eroded bed of the Swakop River before reaching Swakopmund, Namibia’s favourite playground.
Swakopmund is an idyllic town situated along the Atlantic Ocean, and promises us both great relaxation and adventure. A wide variety of activities are on offer in and around this quaint seaside town, including amongst others dolphin cruises, scenic flights, quad biking, dune boarding, desert explorations, sky diving and much more.
Accommodation: The Stilts

Day 5 & Day 6
Wednesday & Thursday
Etosha National Park
We travel past the Spitzkoppe to the edge of Damaraland. Here we will visit one of Namibia’s only wine farms and have the opportunity to taste the different wines that are on offer in a desert country. Hereafter we depart for the Etosha National Park, one of Africa’s most diverse game reserves.
The Etosha Park boasts an amazing 114 mammal and 340 bird species, making it one of the most diverse game parks on earth. We travel into the park by open game drive vehicle, thereby ensuring closer contact with the wildlife and the environment this great day has to offer. Our lodge has a wellness Spa. Enjoy the unforgettable view over the extensive plains from your luxury tent.
Accommodation: Eagle Tented Lodge & Spa

Day7
Friday
Okahandja Region
Our journey back takes us via Okahandja; it accommodates two amazing wooden craft markets that enable us to buy that special gift for our loved ones at home. Only a short distance further on we arrive at our lodge, which awards us a perfect spot to relax in the lapa before a vast open colonial lawn surrounded by a lush garden with a refreshing swimming pool.
Accommodation: Okapuka Lodge

Day 8
Saturday
Return to Windhoek
After a relaxed breakfast we travel via the Otjihavera Mountains back to Windhoek, where we are dropped off at our accommodation of choice or transferred to the airport for our outbound flight.
