Day 2: Sossusvlei

Explore & Activities at Sossusvlei

Activities at Sossusvlei centre round early morning excursions in 4×4 vehicles to the magnificent Sossusvlei dunes. You rise with the sun to see one of the most exhilarating sights in Namibia – the towering dunes of Sossusvlei, some of the largest in the world, rising more than 1000 feet above the desert. Many of our visitors lose their hearts to Namibia after seeing Sossusvlei. This is paradise for the photographer, as the shadows create a magnificent contrast of colours. Marvel at the gemsbok and other animals that manage to survive in these dry conditions.

Here you enjoy lavish desert breakfasts under shady acacia trees surrounded by dunes. Afternoon nature trails on the reserve highlight its unique fauna and flora. The star gazing platform and telescope are a popular after-dinner rendezvous as the night skies of the Namib are amongst the clearest on the planet.

The open plains are home to tens of thousands of animals with large herds of springbok, gemsbok, zebra, wildebeest, elephant and, of course, the predators – particularly cheetah and lion.
