    Day 3 - Windhoek – Sossusvlei Namib Desert
    After an early breakfast, we’ll depart Windhk and embark on a scenic journey towards the breathtaking Sossusvlei, deep in the heart of the Namib Desert. Our first stop will be Penduka Women’s Village, an amazing community project that empowers over 500 local women.

It’s a meaningful experience that really highlights the creativity and strength of Namibia’s rural areas. As we continue our drive, we’ll enjoy a packed lunch, giving you a chance to relax and eat while soaking in the vast desert landscape. The towering dunes and endless skies will keep you in awe as we make our way to Sossusvlei. When we arrive at our lodge, you’ll be welcomed by the peaceful ambiance of the Namib Desert.

Your travel time today will be approximately 6 hours.
    Day 4 - Sossusvlei Namib Desert
    We start early today, rising before dawn to journey towards the majestic Sossusvlei dunes. Once we arrive, we’ll switch to 4WD vehicles, to tackle the rugged desert terrain and reach the dunes.

Today involves approximately 2-3 hours of walking on soft sand and over dunes.
    Day 5 - Sossusvlei Namib Desert – Swakopmund
    This morning, we’ll continue our journey towards Swakopmund, a charming coastal town that perfectly blends its German heritage with the beauty of Namibia’s southwestern coast. Founded in 1892, Swakopmund is the country’s largest coastal town, with over 75,000 residents. Known for its palm-lined streets, sandy beaches, and well-preserved German colonial architecture, it’s a place where history and coastal charm come together. The afternoon and evening are yours to enjoy at leisure. You can explore more of Swakopmund on your own or, for something unforgettable, you might opt for a scenic flight over the dramatic Skeleton Coast. Optional Excursion Optional Excursion – Swakopmund Scenic Flight (Cessna 210 Craft) – Often described as 'the flight of a lifetime', travelling from Swakopmund along the Kuiseb Riverbed to the awe-inspiring dunes at Sossusvlei. The colour and shadows of these gigantic mountains of sand change by the hour from beige to rust-red to purple, dazzling the eye. The flight continues over the ‘sea of sand’, towards the shore at Conception Bay, soaring along the coastline and over the shipwreck of the German passenger liner, Eduard Bohlen. Other points of interests include Sandwich Harbour and it’s a large saltwater lagoon, home to an incredible variety of bird life and one of southern Africa’s greatest natural bird sanctuaries; and the salt mines of Walvis Bay, before landing back in the town of Swakopmund. 1.5 hours (610km) – from NAD6500 (approximately US $370pp) (minimum 4 participants) Your travel time today will be approximately 5.5 hours.

Boarding our boat, we’ll embark on an exciting marine excursion from the Walvis Bay Waterfront.

We’ll also make a stop at a Himba Village, home to Namibia’s last semi-nomadic people.

Their unique beauty rituals and lifestyle offer an unforgettable insight into their captivating culture. Arriving at our accommodation, enjoy some time to settle in before heading out on a fascinating Desert Elephant drive this afternoon. These incredible elephants have adapted to the tough, semi-desert environment, with smaller bodies, longer legs, and larger feet to help them navigate the dunes in search of water. It’s a rare chance to see these unique creatures in their natural habitat — a truly awe-inspiring experience and a lovely opportunity to snap some beautiful photographs. As the sun sets over the desert, we’ll pause for sundowners and soak in the peaceful beauty of Damaraland’s vast landscape. We’ll return to the lodge after for a delicious dinner, savouring the fragrant flavours of the region. Your travel time today will be approximately 6 hours.
    Day 8 - Damaraland – Etosha National Park West
    After an early breakfast, we begin our exploration of Damaraland with a visit to the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Twyfelfontein.

Next, we’ll visit the Damara Living Museum, where we’ll dive into the rich history of the Damara people, one of Namibia’s oldest cultures. Their heritage, shaped by a blend of hunter-gatherer and herding traditions, has been profoundly influenced by colonization. The museum provides a rare glimpse into how their culture has adapted, offering insight into a society once on the brink of disappearing. Departing the museum, we’ll continue on to Etosha, reaching our accommodation in the afternoon.

We’ll also have the chance to search for rarer species, such as the black-faced impala and the small but mighty Damara dik-dik. One of the park’s main highlights is the Etosha Pan, a massive salt desert so vast that it can be seen from space. During the dry season, the waterholes here attract all sorts of wildlife, making it a photographer’s dream. After the rains, flamingos flock to the pan, adding splashes of pink to the stark white landscape. We’ll spend the day immersed in nature, observing the breathtaking wildlife, birdlife and scenery that make Etosha such a special place.

Our journey continues as we make our way to Mahango National Park, nestled in Namibia’s Caprivi Strip. Known for its stunning landscapes and abundant wildlife, this area was once acquired by German Chancellor Leo von Caprivi in 1890, with the hope of gaining access to the Indian Ocean via the Zambezi River, although the mighty Victoria Falls stood in the way. This region, often called Namibia’s “panhandle,” offers a perfect blend of beauty and history. After some time to relax and explore, we’ll set off on a serene river cruise along the Kavango River. As we glide along the water, we’ll have the chance to enjoy the peaceful surroundings and perhaps spot wildlife drinking from the riverbanks.

The noise of the falls can be heard from 40 kilometres away, while its spray and mist can be seen from 50 kilometres. Victoria Falls is located on the mighty Zambezi River, which forms the international border between Zimbabwe and Zambia. David Livingstone is believed to have been the first European to discover the waterfall in November 1855 and named it in honour of Queen Victoria. Later this afternoon, we’ll embark on a peaceful sunset cruise along the Zambezi River. Teeming with an abundance of wildlife, relax and unwind as we gently glide along Africa’s fourth-longest river. Known for its rich birdlife, and large populations of Nile crocodiles and hippos, we’ll enjoy a spectacular experience as the surrounding species flock to the water’s edge — made even more beautiful in the golden glow of the sunset.
