Game Viewing Close to Windhoek

Welcome to Namibia! Your Nature Travel Namibia guide will be waiting for you in the arrivals hall of the airport with your name on a signboard. After loading your luggage into the vehicle, we will have a short 45-minute drive to our first lodge, located close to the airport. If we are lucky, we will encounter our first wildlife along the road to the lodge.

Depending on the time of your arrival, we will enjoy a sundowner game drive on the neighbouring Zannier Reserve. Sunset game drives reveal the elusive beauty of the nocturnal savannah. If we are lucky, we will see a great variety of wildlife including rhinos, elephants, giraffes, cheetahs, leopards, ostriches, black-backed jackals, warthogs and various antelopes and birdlife.

We will enjoy our first dinner together and discuss the afternoon's sightings and rest up for our adventure to come!

Sossusvlei & Namib Dunes

We will be up before the sun rises to get ready for our Sossusvlei visit. We will enjoy a quick cup of coffee/tea and then wait for the entrance gates of the park to open. (The gates open at sunrise.) We will drive for about 30 minutes while appreciating the beauty of the sun that is rising over the amazing red dunes. The dunes in this area are some of the highest in the world, reaching almost 400 meters, and provide an opportunity to capture wonderful images in the beautiful morning and evening light. For the adventurous, you have the option of climbing the dunes, sliding down them or enjoying a brisk walk to Dead Vlei. You will have plenty of time to enjoy the many highlights that surround Sossusvlei itself. We will take a break halfway and have a picnic breakfast while enjoying the surrounding landscape. After a full morning's activity, we will return to the lodge for lunch and some free time. Late in the afternoon, we will join at the lodge on a sundowner drive.
