The right safari is usually the one with fewer moves in it.
The most common mistake on a first Namibia itinerary is trying to fit everything in. The country is larger than it looks and the roads are gravel; a route that reads well on paper can turn into six hours of driving a day. If you are unsure which of these suits you, tell us your dates and what you most want to see and we will say so plainly — including when the honest answer is a different journey from the one you were looking at.
All prices are quoted per itinerary rather than published as a fixed rate, because the cost depends on your dates, party size and choice of accommodation. Accommodation is always subject to availability and is confirmed only once a booking is made.
Six routes we plan and travel ourselves, each built around Namibia’s wildlife, landscapes and distances — and each one a starting point rather than a fixed package.
A well-rounded journey through Etosha, Damaraland and the Waterberg — the country’s most celebrated regions at an unhurried pace. The natural first Namibia.
View Safari DetailsBuilt around two reserves rather than five: Okonjima for leopard and cheetah, Etosha for its waterholes and plains. For travellers who would rather wait than tick off.
View Safari DetailsSossusvlei at first light, a 4×4 day into Sandwich Harbour, the granite of Spitzkoppe and Twyfelfontein’s rock art, then two nights in Etosha. Active, varied, and a long way from a coach tour.
View Safari DetailsDunes, the Swakopmund coast and a private game reserve to finish, with a pool at the end of every long drive. Paced for families rather than squeezed for sightseeing.
View Safari DetailsCharter flights instead of long driving days, so the hours go to the desert, the coast and Etosha rather than the road between them. Namibia seen from above as well as within.
View Safari DetailsNone of the above, or all of them rearranged. Tell us your dates, your pace and what you actually want, and we will design the journey around it.
