Namibian Explorer
12 night Small Group Tour

A fascinating small-group voyage of discovery, the Namibian Odyssey showcases the dramatic array of beautiful natural features and attractions as well as the country’s surprisingly abundant and fabulously varied flora and fauna. An authentic African desert adventure.

DAY 1: WINDHOEK

Upon arrival you will be met and transferred to the Hilton Hotel for an overnight stay. That evening, meet your group and guide for an informative briefing on the journey ahead.

DAY 2: WINDHOEK to OTJIWARONGO

Following breakfast you will meet your guide and start your Namibian Explorer adventure with a tour of the capital taking in all the important sites including the Christ Church, the Old Fortress and the Ink Palace. After departing Windhoek continue your journey with a stop off en route at the Okahandja town to see the Kavango woodcarvers before continuing on to the Erindi Game Reserve for possible afternoon game drive or wild leopard bush walk. Overnight at Old Traders Lodge in a Luxury Room (breakfast and dinner included).

DAY 3: OTJIWARONGO to ETOSHA

Perhaps enjoy an optional excursion, before heading north to the Etosha National Park. Stay for two nights at the luxurious Kempinski Mokuti Lodge from where you will enjoy big game drives in the tour vehicle, or optional open-sided vehicle game drives (extra cost) (breakfast and dinner included).

DAY 5: ETOSHA

Spend a full day traversing the park east to west in your closed sided touring vehicle, stopping at waterholes along the way to view the big game. Arrive in the afternoon at the Epacha Game Lodge, with time free for various optional activities (breakfast and dinner included).

DAY 6: ETOSHA to DAMARALAND

Travel south into Damaraland for one night at the stunning Mowani Mountain Camp, nestled dramatically amongst giant boulders with dramatic views across the rocky plains. En route, visit an eerie petrified forest and the striking ‘Organ Pipes’ rock formation. Explore the sites of the area, including the ancient rock art of Twyfelfontein, hopefully encountering the famous desert elephants (breakfast and dinner included).

DAY 7: DAMARALAND to SWAKOPMUND

After breakfast, depart the lodge, heading south-west to the coastal city of Swakopmund — Namibia's premier holiday retreat. Along the way, visit the impressive Cape Cross Seal Colony, home to up to 100,000 boisterous cape fur seals. Stay three nights at the Swakopmund Hotel with time at leisure for optional activities including marine cruises, desert tours, scenic flights and an impressive variety of adrenalin activities (all at extra cost) (breakfast included).

DAY 10: SWAKOPMUND to SOSSUSVLEI

Delve deep into the fearsome Namib desert to seek out the unique Welwitschia Mirabilis desert flower. Continue into the desert for a two night stay at the Sossusvlei Lodge. Later, enjoy an optional sundowner drive to marvel at the beautiful shifting colour tones of the mountains and petrified dunes around you. Next morning, rise early to witness a magnificent desert sunrise followed by an exploration of the massive dunes by 4X4 and on foot. Scale Dune 45 and walk on the ancient clay pans of Sossusvlei and the Dead Vlei, whose brilliant white is contrasted exquisitely by the ferric shades of the dunes and the vast blue sky – a photographic utopia. Later, visit the gorges of Sesriem Canyon (breakfast and dinner included).

DAY 12: SOSSUSVLEI to WINDHOEK

Transfer back to Windhoek for a night at The Olive Grove with the rest of the day at leisure (breakfast and dinner included).

DAY 13: DEPART

Transfer to the airport for your onward journey (breakfast and dinner included).
