Adventure level:Starting in the Namibian capital of Windhoek, you can choose from two contrasting adventures. With each tour lasting 8 days, both are designed to take in the best the North and South has to offer.

NAMIBIA NORTH TOUR COAST & ELEPHANTS

The focus here is clearly on Namibia’s rich and impressive wildlife. With visits to both the imposing Okonjima Nature Reserve and the spectacular Etosha National Park, you can expect to see Africa’s big five (lions, elephants, Cape buffalo, leopards and rhinos), as well as a host of other captivating wildlife in their natural habitat. And of course, no trip to Africa would be complete without seeing the beautiful and majestic African elephant.

A trek across the challenging great sand passages will take you to one of the largest fur seal colonies in the world. It’s also here that you’ll be able to witness two of nature’s greatest forces coming together, as the expanse of the Namib desert meets the might of the South Atlantic Ocean resulting in mystical fog banks that sweep over the coastline.

NORTH TOUR - COAST & ELEPHANTS

NORTH TOUR COAST & ELEPHANTS ITINERARY DAY 2

After breakfast, you will head out into the dense bushland of the Etosha National Park to explore the wildlife. One of the greatest game reserves in the world, it offers a diverse collection of wildlife including several lion prides.

After dinner, you can expect to encounter various game emerging from the darkness.

DAY 3

Continuing your exploration through Etosha, you will spend the day in search of the park’s younger residents in the western part of the reserve. It’s here that several rare species such as black rhino and black-faced impala have established a nursery to raise their young.

Flying into Namibia’s capital, Windhoek, you will be met by a local Land Rover representative. From here, you will be driven to the takeover point where you will have the opportunity to get acquainted with your All-New Discovery. After a quick tour briefing, you will drive North where you will spend your first night in a traditional African Lodge.

After meeting your fellow explorers over dinner, you can spend the evening watching wildlife come to drink at the nearby waterhole.

DAY 1

Departing the park, most of the day will be spent on the trails as you head along the infamous Kamdesha route to the Mopane savannah. Renowned for its fine dust roads, the sand particles hang in the air like a morning mist.

Dinner and accommodation will be situated on the banks of the Hoanib River.

DAY 4

DAY 5

After breakfast, you will drive through the challenging Khowarib Canyon on an off-road adventure that will take you along the scenic banks of the Hoanib River. It is here you’ll realise why the All-New Discovery is the perfect choice for this all-terrain escapade.

Evening dinner will be served at another traditional African lodge where you can expect to be joined by a variety of wildlife passing through.

DAY 6

A long and challenging day awaits as you drive through a series of stunning and Martian-like landscapes on your way to Swakopmund. Flanked by towering sand dunes and a powerful South Atlantic surf, it is one of many towns featuring German colonial architecture. A legacy of a century of German occupation.

Your overnight stay will be at a hotel in Swakopmund.

DAY 8

Arriving back in the capital city of Windhoek, you may discover that everything makes a little more sense having uncovered some of its many secrets. A contrast of landscapes, architectural styles, tribes, colours and languages that will illustrate why Namibia isn’t like anywhere else on earth.

After breakfast, you set off for the Namib-Naukluft Park. The largest in Africa at 5 million hectares, you can expect another wildlife extravaganza of leopards, cheetahs, zebra, warthog, springbok and gemsbok.
