Windhoek – Kalahari

Start your late morning drive from Windhoek on the B1, heading toward Kalkrand. The road to this small town is tarred, ensuring a smooth and comfortable journey. Once you reach Kalkrand, don’t forget to reduce your tire pressure to 1.8 bar before continuing the short drive to your lodge.
You’ll arrive in time to enjoy a light lunch and some afternoon relaxation.

Later, join an included sunset drive through the Kalahari, where you’ll discover fascinating insights about the wildlife that thrives in this desert environment. Return in the early evening, just in time to savour a well-deserved dinner.

Day 3

Intu Afrika – Sesriem

Intu Afrika – Sesriem

Today’s journey is a longer drive, with much of the route on gravel roads, so be sure to maintain your tire pressure at 1.8 bar. Heading south and re-joining the B1, travel to the town of Mariental, where you can refuel before continuing west toward Maltehohe.
From there, descend the Zaris Pass into the Namib Desert—a perfect spot to pause and take in the stunning desert views while enjoying a packed lunch under the shade of a camelthorn tree.

You’ll arrive at the lodge by mid-afternoon, where you’ll be greeted with a refreshing drink. Spend the rest of the afternoon relaxing with a siesta or a swim in the lodge’s pool before enjoying dinner under the starry desert sky.

Day 4

Day Visit to the Sossusvlei

Day Visit to the Sossusvlei

Start your day with a pre-dawn wake-up to highlight your tour. Depart the lodge just before sunrise to reach the park gates as they open, then travel 54 km into the Dune Sea. While Dune 45 offers a climbing opportunity, it's best to proceed to maximize the cooler morning temperatures.

At the 4x4 parking area, switch to 4x4 mode for the last 5 km through thick sand to Deadvlei, home to one of the world’s tallest dunes at 355 meters. Climbing it is rewarding, and running down adds some fun.

Explore Deadvlei’s striking 900-year-old dead trees—great for photography, but please do not touch. After that, head to Sossusvlei to soak in the scenery. During the rainy season, water may attract wildlife.

As the day warms, return to the lodge for lunch and relaxation. In the afternoon, visit Sesriem Canyon, then unwind with a swim or a good book before enjoying dinner under the stars.

Arrive in Walvis Bay by early afternoon and visit the Walvis Bay Yacht Club to plan activities like a dolphin cruise or a 4x4 trip to Sandwich Harbour, with Catamaran Charters highly recommended.

Swakopmund to Windhoek

Before setting off for Windhoek, remember to inflate your tires to the correct pressure, as the return journey will be on tarred roads. If time permits, consider stopping at Spitzkoppe (entrance at your own expense)—a stunning destination well worth a visit.
Following the B2, you’ll pass through the quaint towns of Usakos, Karibib, and Okahandja. In Okahandja, take a break to explore the vibrant street craft market, located just off the B2, and enjoy lunch at Dede’s (at your own expense) before continuing the short 76 km drive to Windhoek.

Dinner tonight is not included, but we highly recommend Joe’s Beerhouse for a memorable final meal in Namibia. Known for its unique ambiance and delicious cuisine, it’s a must-visit for many travellers. Be sure to book your table in advance to secure your spot!
