Itinerary of your trip Namibia Lodge Safari

  • Day 1 Day 1: Join Tour Windhoek
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 1: Join Tour Windhoek

      Arrive Windhoek and check into hotel. There is some free time today for sightseeing in the Namibian capital, with an opportunity to visit the National Museum or perhaps a half day Katatura Township tour.

  • Day 2 Day 2: Drive Through Namib Desert To Sesriem
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 2: Drive Through Namib Desert To Sesriem

      Departing Windhoek we spend the day driving south-west into the Namib Desert, to the edge of the Namib-Naukluft National Park and our lodge near Sesriem. The Namib is the oldest desert on earth, distinguished as being home to some of the strangest flora and fauna on the continent.

  • Day 3 Day 3: Exploring The Highest Sand Dunes In The World In Sossusvlei
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 3: Exploring The Highest Sand Dunes In The World In Sossusvlei

      Today we drive into the Namib-Naukluft National Park and travel down the Tsauchab Valley to Sossusvlei to watch the sun cast its shadows over the red dunes. Sossusvlei has some of the world's most spectacular sand dunes. The area itself is a vast depression or clay pan, towered over by sand dunes up to 300m high. In the early morning, the first rays of the sun light up the dunes with a deep orange glow - a photographer's delight. It is a wild, beautiful and romantic spot, with sparse vegetation edging a few water courses which flow in from the Tsauchab river. Here springbok and ostrich are often seen. We'll also explore the cool passageways of the Sesriem Canyon on foot. The canyon is small but very picturesque - many plants grow in the shade and shelter offered by the canyon, and water pools attract several species of birds and animals. Sesriem means 'six thongs'; which refers to the six lengths of rawhide rope (from a wagon) needed to make a line long enough to lower from the rim of the gorge to the stream below, in order to haul up a bucket of water.
