Etosha National Park -The Great White Place

Etosha National Park -The Great White Place

After breakfast, you will be met by our trip leader at your hotel in Windhoek and make our way to the wildlife sanctuary—Etosha National Park. This treasure of Namibia is considered to be one of the most loved and most visited game parks of Africa!

Included activities:
Game Drives
Flood-lit Waterhole

Experience Namibia’s finest private game reserve that lets you observe the wildlife and vegetation in ways you never imagined. Guided game drives in the morning, afternoon, and evening across the park are a great way to savor the sights of an arid land and ample game. The feeling of being so close to nature at the camp is a learning experience. You can also take a flood-lit waterhole at the resort area to connect better with the surrounding game. Encounter the usual leopard and the exhilarating opportunity to see rhino. The thrill of spotting rhinos, sometimes, a herd, is a high that will last for a lifetime.

Main Destination:
Etosha National Park
Best Time To Visit May to October (Animals come to water)
High Season July to November (The park gets crowded)

Day 5-6

Sossusvlei-Burning Red Dunes

Sossusvlei-Burning Red Dunes

It was sand dunes that kept Namibia so pristine. When explorers landed, they couldn't cross the desert, saving Namibia from colonialism until the late 19th century. Some ships turned around. Others perished and left behind wooden skeletons. It's these sand dunes that you now cross, weaving a journey through the endless ridges and peaks, troughs and summits. Tiny oases dot the journey, shocks of green that challenge the red rainbow. Mountains rise and fall with the dunes, shimmering towers guide your trip towards Sossusvlei. These dunes come alive at sunset, flickering through a euphoric prism of vibrant color. Climb the ridge for an aerial view, hundreds of miles of untamed desert offering a phantasmal panorama.

Included activities:
Morning excursion to Sossusvlei
Sesriem Canyon
Climb Dune 45 or Big daddy
Visit the stunning white pans of Deadvlei.

Main Destination:
Sossusvlei (Sand Dunes)

Day 7

Windhoek – Homeward Bound

Windhoek – Homeward Bound

The time finally comes to bid the desert goodbye as we drive back to Windhoek. Look out of the window at the retreating Namib Desert, the ochre mountains and valleys, and the enormous uninhabited space aside you. The magic of Namibia takes ahold of you as you promise yourself to return one day.
