Today you arrive at the Hosea Kutako International Airport in Windhoek. A transfer company will drive you to your accommodation in Windhoek, where you will have the opportunity to spend the afternoon at leisure.
A transfer company will drive you from your accommodation to the Eros Airport, where you will embark on a light-aircraft transfer to NamibRand Nature Reserve, a vast privately owned reserve covering almost 200 000 hectares bordering the Namib Naukluft Park.
On arrival you will be met by one of your local guides, who will transfer you to the lodge.
Two activities are included today.
The lodge's experienced guides will introduce you to the desert's habitat and diverse fauna and flora and will accompany you into the desert, enlightening you of the wilderness's own history and residents.
Today you depart for Swakopmund from Namib Rand. Today’s flight will give you a front seat to an unforgettable aerial view of the majestic dunes surrounding Sossusvlei. Best described as a rolling carpet of unending sand, decorated with the unique biodiversity that the desert holds is truly a scenic memory to keep.
As you proceed along the coast over Conception Bay, Sandwich Harbour, and its famous lagoon to Swakopmund, you will be spoiled with yet another wonder. You will have the rare opportunity to witness the contrasting beauty of the ocean and the desert, and see the point that they meet.
Once you land at the Swakopmund Airport, a transfer company will drive you to your accommodation where you can spend the afternoon at leisure.
For today, we recommend you partake in one of the various activities in Swakopmund and the surrounding areas. A great suggestion would be the Marine Cruise from the Walvis Bay Waterfront.
The scenic drive from Swakopmund to Walvis Bay takes about 45 minutes. Don’t forget to take a hat, sunscreen and a warm jacket along. Enjoy the marine cruise where you could have a dolphin sighting given the season, friendly seals coming onboard and lovely pelicans feeding on their daily catch. After 3 exciting hours the catamaran will return and dock at the waterfront where your guide will return you to the hotel.
After breakfast you will be escorted to the Swakopmund Airport for your flight to your next destination up north, the Hoanib Valley Camp.
Today there are two activities included. The activities offered by the camp focus on the flora and fauna that have adapted to this desert region. In addition to being known for the dry region of the Kaokoveld and the desert elephants that live here, the region is also home to many other animals - you can also participate in exciting game observation trips and see, with a bit of luck, giraffes, springboks, oryx and even lions. Guests are welcome to also join the guides for a visit to the local tribes of the Himba, Herero or Damara people.
Today the mode of transport will change as you will be transferred by road from the Hoanib Valley Camp to Shipwreck Lodge. Make sure to have your camera ready as you might spot a few animals along the way.
Two activities are included today. There are day excursions by vehicle to the Möwe Bay seal colony as well as to the Hoarusib River. You could also take part in a sundowner drive to the roaring dunes.
Your destination today is nestled on a hillside amongst Mopani trees overlooking a large waterhole and the vast expanse of Etosha. Safarihoek Lodge offers infinite views over the plains below.
Today you have two activities.
Today is the end of your safari. Your flight today will take you back to the Hosea Kutako International Airport, where you check in for your flight home. Please ensure to book the latest possible flight, to compensate for possible delays.
We wish you a safe journey home.
