Windhoek, Namibia
Begin your desert adventure at the renowned Habitas Namibia, located on the edge of Windhoek. Here, discover a way of life that looks to the earth beneath your feet and the stars above for knowledge. As the main port of call for most tourists, the bustling metropolis of Windhoek offers visitors locally-brewed beer and picturesque German architecture. Kick back and relax while enjoying the serenity of the untouched space in this nature reserve.
Etosha Heights Private Reserve, Namibia
Continue your desert journey at the serene Safarihoek Lodge, located in the Etosha Heights Private Reserve, Namibia. Experience the utter tranquillity of silence and solitude that pervades the vast Namibian savannah, stretching far into the distance. Rated as one of the best places on the continent to view rhino, Etosha's wildlife roams freely across the never-ending space. Be one with nature while surrounded by thickets of mopane woodland, riverine forest, and scattered salt pans.
Kaokoland, Namibi
Travel further into north-western Namibia and find yourself at the intimate Hoanib Valley Camp, located in the Sesfontein Community Conservancy with views of the Hoanib River. As one Namibia’s most remote and wild environments, Kaokoland offers rich and diverse wildlife sightings, towering mountains and huge expanses of desert. Enjoy the ultimate exclusive desert experience and let this unspoiled landscape take you on an adventure.
Skeleton Coast National Park, Namibia
Continue the adventure at the fascinating Shipwreck Lodge, located on the famous Skeleton Coast concession. Here, find yourself nestled between the dunes in uniquely-designed cabins overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. Mostly known for its rough surf and shifting shores, this seemingly stark desert has flourishing wildlife which calls this unforgiving land their home. Discover the fascinating history behind mysterious shipwrecks that line the coast and immerse yourself in the heritage of the welcoming Himba Tribe.
Swakopmund, Namibia
Continue onwards to your second-last destination and experience the luxuries of Strand Hotel, Swakopmund. Located directly on the promenade and surrounded on three sides by the Atlantic Ocean, this stay offers direct access to travellers wanting to explore the popular destination. From plenty of shop to restaurants and bars, find yourself immersed in the charm of this German, Victorian era colonial seaside town.
NamibRand Nature Reserve, Namibia
Conclude your desert safari at the stylish camp of Kwessi Dunes, located deep within Namibia’s striking NamibRand Nature Reserve. Being one of the largest private reserves in southern Africa, this area offers its guests a totally private and entirely exclusive adventure.
