Welcome and handover of travel documents
Continue to your first stop in the beautiful and remote Kalahari. Relax after arrival and enjoy your first impressions of the country's uniqueness and fascinating scenery.
Your destination today at the Fish River Canyon is one of the absolute highlights of the country and offers a spectacular landscape experience as the largest canyon in Africa. The region is world-famous for the Fish River Canyon Hiking Trail, which runs around 88 km to Ais-Ais. Short, guided hiking trails and unforgettable nature drives at sunset are also popular.
Your journey leads you to the charming coastal village Lüderitz. Just outside lies the ghost town of Kolmanskop, a popular tourist destination. This previously bustling diamond town is now abandoned and struggles constantly against being buried under the shifting sand dunes of the Namib desert.
Your journey takes you to Helmeringhausen, an ideal stopover between highlights in southern Namibia. In the afternoon, wildlife drives take place on the farm grounds of your hotel. Let your game ranger introduce you to the landscape, fauna and flora of the region, as well as the wild animals that live here. With luck, you will see kudu, springbok, ostrich, duiker, meerkat, bat-eared fox and a variety of native birds.
Enjoy a hearty breakfast early in the morning before continuing on to Sossusvlei. After your arrival, enjoy the spectacular landscape that surrounds your desert lodge. During your stay, you have the opportunity to visit the highest dune, Big Daddy, and Deadvlei, the most famous viewpoints in this region. Optionally and depending on what your accommodation offers, you can book a guided tour.
Continue on to your first destination on the coast, the charming port town of Swakopmund. Enjoy sightseeing and stop off at one of the town's coffee houses for a coffee and a traditional homemade slice of cake. Typical Namibian hospitality, contrasted with the cool Atlantic breeze during a stroll along the beach, ensures an unforgettable stay.
Drive to Windhoek airport and return your rental car. Check-in for your flight back home.
