Overview
Join this spectacular 8-day tour of Namibia and experience some of Namibia’s most incredible natural masterpieces. These include the world’s highest sand dunes in Sossusvlei and the charming coastal town of Swakopmund. Of course, no African trip is complete without a wildlife safari experience in Erindi Private Game Reserve.
Few countries in Africa can match Namibia’s sheer natural beauty. The country’s name derives from its (and the world’s) oldest desert, the Namib, and there are few more incredible desert expanses on planet earth. From the sand sea and perfect dead-tree valleys at Sossusvlei, to your own David Attenborough safari wildlife moments.
Erindi Private Game Reserve is a protected reserve in central Namibia. With over 700 sq. km of savannah grasslands and rocky mountains, Erindi lacks the zoo-like feel of many smaller private reserves in the country and lacks for nothing when it comes to wildlife – you can reliably expect to see elephants and giraffe, lion, leopard, cheetah, African wild dog, and black rhino.
Appropriate for this vast country with its epic landscapes, Sossusvlei still manages to feel isolated. The dunes appear other-worldly at times, especially when the light hits them near sunrise or sunset. They cover 32,000-sq-km of sand sea which covers much of the region and tower as high as 325m, forming part of one of the oldest and driest ecosystems on earth.
But let us not forget about the charming cities of Swakopmund with its quirky mix of German and Namibian influences, adventure options, laid-back feel and cool sea breeze. Or Windhoek, the capital of Namibia, which is encircled by magnificent mountains, expansive valleys, fertile farmlands, lodges, and luxury guest farms. Namibia it the perfect bucket-list destination for photographers, animal lover and adventures paradise.
This tour can be booked as either self-guided or fully guided, and you can choose premium or luxury accommodation depending on your preference.
