Guests are met at Windhoek Airport for the start of their Namibian Safari and are assisted with boarding a light charter flight to Swakopmund.

Day 2: Swakopmund
Our first stop is at ' Bird Rock '- a guano island inhabited by 200 000 birds and one of the first examples of man's efforts to utilize the rich natural resources of the area. The safari then makes its way to the Lagoon at Walvis Bay and then on to Sandwich Harbor. Both have been designated as 'Wetlands of International Importance'.
The Namibian safari then travels South to the towering, wind-sculptured dunes at the edge of Sandwich Harbor. Some 40 000 birds - 34 different species - were recorded in this area during recent surveys. Take a leisurely walk around the Lagoon (an official marine sanctuary) and you may also see seals, dolphins and even whales. The tour then makes its way back to Swakopmund where we arrive during the late afternoon.

Day 3: Sossusvlei
After breakfast guests are transferred to Swakopmund Air Strip for a charter flight to Sossusvlei. Experience the haunting beauty of the Namib Desert at Sossusvlei Mountain Lodge, situated in the foothills of the private Namib Rand Nature Reserve.
The Namib – known as ‘The Living Desert’ – is a world of vast space, endless horizons, dramatic desert landscapes and jagged mountain heights. Led by Sossusvlei’s expert rangers and naturalists, the afternoon is devoted to exploring the desert landscape on open 4X4 vehicles. |
| Overnight: Sossusvlei Mountain Lodge |
|
| Meals: Full Board |
|
Day 4: Sossusvlei
The morning is devoted to an excursion to the famous Sossusvlei Sand dunes, the highest in the world. The name 'Sossusvlei' applies to an area that encompasses the great plain of the Tsauchab River together with the red dunes that march along like giant sentinels to the south and north of the plain.
Then its on to Sesriem Canyon. The canyon begins as an almost imperceptible but nevertheless deep cleft in level, stony ground, and then widens until it finally flattens out onto the plain. Because it is so deep and sheltered, it often holds water well into the dry season - an invigorating sight in such a barren and stark environment. During the afternoon we return to the lodge and after some time for relaxation the area is explored by quad bike.
