Sesfontein Guesthouse
For All New 2025 bookings: 2-Night Hoanib Elephant Drive Sleep-Out Package (Including Himba Village Visit)
After breakfast we head due north and start our adventure with a visit to a Himba village. Here you will be able to see the daily duties in the village.
We make our way into the Hoanib and enjoy lunch under some large shaded tree.
Afterwards, we explore parts of the Hoanib River in search of the elusive desert-adapted elephants (wildlife sightings are never a guarantee). With some luck we could spot some lion and even rhino.
In the late afternoon, a suitable spot will be found to pitch the camp. While guests enjoy the surroundings and a sundowner, the staff will put up the tents and prepare the food. The guests can enjoy their evening out in the wild whilst sitting around the fire. A warm dinner will be prepared on the fire.
After dinner, the guests can enjoy sitting around the fire, listening to the sounds of the wild and gazing at the stars above.
After an early-morning tea/coffee with rusks we pack up and head back to Sesfontein. On arrival you enjoy a proper full late breakfast after which you depart for your next destination.
NB - the above can also be done the other way around.
