14-Day Namibia Safari Tours
Namibia’s defining feature is its sheer emptiness. The sea of sand of the Namib Desert follows the country’s wild Atlantic coastline. Wildlife densities are low in this arid environment, but seeing a solitary gemsbok kicking up sand as it makes its way across the red dunes will take your breath away. You’ll have a different experience in Etosha National Park where animals gather at the waterholes in large numbers. On the outskirts of this wilderness are charming coastal towns that showcase Namibia’s rich cultural history. Add to all this top-class hotels and lodges, great food, excellent roads and welcoming people and you can understand why Namibia always scores high in top destinations awards.

6 Questions About 14-Day Namibia Safaris
What can I expect from a 14-day Namibia safari?
“On a 14-day Namibia road safari you’ll probably follow a circular route. You might spend a couple of nights in each of the main destinations, with a few 1-night stays in stopover places. Many iconic destinations in Namibia are primarily visited for their natural beauty. There is usually some wildlife around, but the real attraction is the scenery. This is true for Sossusvlei, the Fish River Canyon, Waterberg Plateau Park and, to a lesser extent, the Skeleton Coast and Damaraland. The main exception is Etosha National Park, a prime wildlife destination that’s home to four of the Big Five (buffalo is absent). Here, you’ll go out on game drives, but it’s worth waiting for animals at the waterholes too. As is the case anywhere in Africa, the daily routine on a Namibia safari is getting out and about early in the morning and late in the afternoon. Especially when looking for wildlife on game drives, as this is when they are most active. It’s usually hot in the middle of the day and this is a good time to relax in the lodge.”
1Where should I go on a 2-week Namibia trip?
“There are a lot of places you can visit on a 14-day Namibia safari. You obviously can’t get to all the places of interest, so you’ll have to make some choices. If you’re going on a road trip (self-drive or guided), you should avoid trying to cover too much distance. Spend a bit more time in fewer places rather than trying to cram too much into the itinerary. Wildlife-lovers should definitely go to Etosha National Park. You’ll see plenty of animals here at any time, but the viewing is exceptionally good during the Dry season. Expect to see lots of elephants and other herbivores drinking at the waterholes. Black rhino is a regular visitor too. The Sossusvlei area in Namib-Naukluft National Park is another must-see destination. Here you’ll find some of Namibia’s most picture-perfect desert scenes, and you’ll have the opportunity to climb one of the tallest sand dunes in Africa. The quaint historical town of Swakopmund on the coast is worth visiting for its German colonial architecture and the adventure activities on offer. From here you can make trips to the seal colony at Cape Cross, and Walvis Bay lagoon for its fabulous birdlife. The rugged region of Damaraland is home to desert-adapted wildlife (most notably elephants and rhinos), elaborate Bushman art and a petrified forest. Conveniently located between Windhoek (the Namibian capital) and Etosha is the Okonjima Nature Reserve, a sanctuary for big cats. With its well-appointed lodges and incredible photographic opportunities, this place is a winner.”
2What kinds of tours are available for a 14-day Namibia safari?
“Namibia can be experienced in many different ways on a 2-week safari. Use the filters on the SafariBookings website to narrow down your preferences. Firstly, you can choose between a private tour or a shared tour. You’ll know whether a group tour works for you. Many people love it, but it certainly isn’t for everybody. Because some of the costs are shared, group tours are usually more cost-effective (especially for solo travelers). Private tours, on the other hand, allow more flexibility. On shared tours, group sizes can be anything from six to 32 people. Larger groups often travel in overland trucks, while groups of up to six or eight usually get around in a minivan or 4x4 vehicle. Namibia is well equipped for independent travelers and crime is very rare. It’s no surprise then that a self-drive safari is a popular option too. You can simply rent a car and prebook all accommodations yourself or improvise as you go along. But why not let the professionals help you? They have the experience and knowledge to set up your self-drive trip, make all bookings and offer assistance while you’re on the road. This way, you won’t lose any valuable time in case of a vehicle breakdown or other problem.”
3Should I choose a fly-in or road safari?
“Traveling around by car or small aircraft are both good options for safaris in Namibia. It is a wonderful country for a road trip. Between destinations, you’ll get to appreciate the emptiness of the wide-open spaces. It’s a big part of what Namibia is all about. You’ll probably follow a circular route visiting several highlights on your 14-day safari. However, there are obvious advantages to a fly-in safari too. Although they are generally more pricey, it is a good way to save time traveling between places. And it means you can easily mix and match highlights from all over the country. Fly-in packages are usually tied in with luxury accommodations. In some cases these lodges are in remote locations and offer a high level of exclusivity. There is no reason why you can’t combine a road and fly-in safari. Fly to a few out-of-the-way places and drive the rest.”
4What is the best time of year for a Namibia safari?
“Namibia has a dry desert climate and can be visited at any time of the year. Rainfall is sporadic and rarely interferes with travel plans. When it rains, it usually comes in the form of afternoon thunderstorms. Wildlife viewing is, however, best from May to October during the Dry season. This is especially so in Etosha, where animals are attracted to waterholes when the bush dries out. The Wet season (November to April) is hot and humid, especially from November to February. The Dry season months are very pleasant during the day, but it can get very chilly at night. April and May are lovely months. Temperatures are mild at this time and rainfall is rare. As these months mark the end of the Wet season, the scenery tends to be green and the air crisp. December to April is the low season. You’ll find few visitors around and low-season prices might apply.”
5How much will this safari cost?
“You can expect a starting price of US$3,500 per person for a 14-day shared tour. Mid-range private tours start at about US$4,500 per person for 2 weeks. You’ll find a wide range of prices for a 14-day Namibia safari, as many variables determine the cost. Joining a camping group tour is probably the cheapest way to travel. It’s lots of fun too. On some tours you might have to help with camp duties, but mostly it will all be taken care of. Alternatively, you can book a lodge safari. Your choice of accommodations will affect the overall price of the tour. Mid-range safaris, which offer competitive prices, are the most popular. A great way to economize is to travel in the low season (December to April) or the shoulder months. Although wildlife viewing isn’t as good at this time (in Etosha particularly), the Green season (also known as the Wet season) is particularly beautiful and uncrowded. Once you’ve narrowed down your priorities, get a few quotes before making a final decision.”
