Classic Namibia Tour-01

A game drive can be enjoyed in the morning, which then includes a coffee stop, or in the late afternoon with a sundowner, both overlooking the endless Kalahari landscape. You will be able to view over 35 different species of game and more than 95 species of birds. Should you wish to learn more about cattle farming in Namibia, this can gladly be arranged as well.

A few walking trails give you the option to enjoy a nature walk, either on your own with a bird book and binoculars in hand, or with a guide accompanying you. There are also hides along the way that provide the ideal place for game and bird viewing.

The Namibian clear skies make stargazing an unforgettable and rewarding experience for both the experienced astronomer as well as the first time stargazer.

For the more actively minded, we have a small, but modern gym with weights, a treadmill, cross trainer and Recline Forma exercise bike. There is a sauna to detox and relax, and a 20m long swimming pool to enjoy a swim or cool off in.

Situated on a neighbouring farm, the Arnhem Cave – at 4,5 km long –is the largest cave system in Namibia and the 5th largest in Southern Africa. The cave is still in its natural state and home to the largest bat population in Africa. You will be able to view six recorded bat species and also discover a host of other interesting wildlife, including spiders, scorpions, beetles and musk shrews living in the cave. The cave is only a 15 minute drive from Otjimbondona, so a day visit can easily be arranged.

Fat bikes are off road bicycles with large tyres that enable riding on soft terrains. There are plenty of trails and roads which are ideally suited to explore the surrounding areas on a bike.

A Cessna 210 is parked nearby and ready to take you on a scenic flight over the farm or surrounding area. If a flight to Sossusvlei to view Namibia’s majestic dunes or a delicious lunch of locally harvested Atlantic oysters and fish in the enchanting coastal town of Swakopmund are what you are after, we are happy to take you wherever your heart desires.

We have provided fly-in Safaris throughout Namibia and its neighbouring countries since 1991. You can find more information about our fly-in Safaris here . We would love to create a tailor-made package to suit your needs and provide you with optimal exposure to our beautiful country and region.
