Safari: In and Around the Heart of Namibia

Meet and greet at the airport before making the journey to our
accommodation. Enjoy a drink and relax before heading to dinner, as the
excitement builds for what we have in store for you!

Early morning just after breakfast, we travel to the Waterberg Plateau. It
rises 200 metres above the surrounding Savannah and is known for being
one of the most peaceful places in Namibia. It is home to over 25 game
and over 200 bird species. On the site of the historic Battle of
Waterberg, at the foot of the plateau, a graveyard serves as a reminder of
a turbulent period in history. Schutztruppe soldiers who died in the
battle fought between the German and Herero colonial forces in 1904
are buried here.

Today we continue our wildlife experience. Approx. 3 to 4-hour drive to
our next destination, Etosha. Sit back, relax and enjoy the fascination of
the fauna and flora during the drive. We arrive at Etosha just after lunch,
and just in time for an afternoon game drive. Etosha is 22.270km2 in size
and has about 114 mammal species, of which several are endangered.
Examples of these are the black rhino, cheetah and the black faced
impala. The black rhino in Etosha currently represents one of the largest
populations in the world. We will also get to see herds of animals,
including: Elephants, Lions, Giraffe, Blue Wildebeest, and Zebra, Hyena
and many antelopes. Maybe we will be lucky to also see cheetahs and
leopards. Etosha is also a bird paradise for bird lovers.
After the exciting game drive, we enjoy a lovely dinner with the sound of
local music playing in the background upon an open fireplace. Gazing at
the bright beautiful stars in the sky.

Another day in Etosha National Park to explore more wildlife

Just after breakfast we make our way to Damaraland. Our first stop is a
Himba village near Kamanjab, learning their traditions and their ways of
living. We make our way to the next destination, White Lady lodge,
where, after a long drive enjoy an ice-cold Windhoek Lager, Namibia’s
locally brewed beer.

Our day starts very early, as this day is packed full of adventures. We
visit the Damara people, and take a small walk with a local guide to the
Bushman rock paintings estimated to be well over 6000 years old, which
in so many ways tell the beautiful stories of the inhabitants during that
time period. Thereafter we will be going to the gigantic Organ Pipes,
and lastly travel to the glowing Brandberg where we will also see the
oldest plant in the world, the Welwitschia Mirabilis. We will try to fit
all of this in one day, embrace the beauty of the nature and its scenery

After breakfast, we head for the coast. We travel along the skeleton coast
all the way to Swakopmund. En route we visit the Cape Cross with its
hundreds of thousands of seals. We also stop at a shipwreck along the
coast, one of the most photographed shipwrecks in this area. The rest of
the afternoon you are free to wonder this beautiful German town and
enjoy its beautiful scenery.
