Arrival Airport: Hosea Kutako International Airport (WDH)

Namibia is a land of geographical extremes that encompasses vast areas of inhospitable desert, towering mountain ranges, and unspoiled wilderness areas, home to elephants, rhinos, lions, giraffes, and a host of unique flora and fauna. To the west lies the Skeleton Coast, one of the most desolate shorelines in the world. In the extreme south, bordering South Africa, we find the dramatic, rocky mountain gorges of the Fish River Canyon; to the north by contrast, rich farmland alternates with sub-tropical forest and the mopane bush of the Etosha National Park.

On your first day in the country, you'll spend some time exploring Windhoek before settling down for dinner.

Rise and shine! A pre-dawn start is essential this morning to catch the quiet splendor of a desert sunrise. There’ll be abundant landscape and wildlife photo opportunities in the morning breeze, with dawn’s soft light first illuminating the dunes from the crest down the back slope before blazing orange everywhere, creating a powerful contrasting scene across the whole desert. You’ll spend the morning in and around Sossusvlei, climbing the famed Dune 45.

After lunch, you will have free time to explore the camp. You may also add on a trip to Sesriem Canyon. Another stunning sunset in the vibrant desert, followed by a night under the shining stars of the Southern Hemisphere, is the ideal way to finish off the day.
