Namibia - Featured Trips

This self drive tour takes you to some of the quietest places in Africa. Luxurious lodges offering stunning sundowner views and safe bushwalks amongst the sand dunes and bizarre eroded rock landscapes of Damarland. Experience the cultural sights of Africa's unique San rock art at Twyfelfontein as well as the awe inspiring Sossusvlei dunes. It also takes you on to Damaraland where you will be guided through the dry river beds to encounter the uniquely adapted desert elephants. Smaller than their cousins in the north they also have large feet to spread their weight across the shifting sands. Although not classed as a desert, you will also visit the Atlantic coast of Namibia where the cold ocean currents cool the desert landscape. Here you will find a relic of colonial influence in the town of Swakopmund with its Germanic architecture and German speaking people. From here you can view the largest colony of Cape Fur Seal in Africa where literally tens of thousands of animals thrive in the cold waters. Either drive to see them at Cape Cross or take one of the many boat tours that depart daily. Complimentary wine and oysters are served once you return to port.
