Namibia Luxury Safari

Sand, Stone & Salt

The Journey – Your Itinerary

3 Nights · Fully Inclusive

Africa’s first International Dark Sky Reserve, and an observatory built for exactly this moment.

One of the oldest deserts on Earth, NamibRand’s dunes, gravel plains and mysterious ‘fairy circles’ are matched only by its skies — sunrise 4×4 drives into Namib-Naukluft National Park, guided desert walks and quad-bike excursions, a seasonal scenic helicopter flight over Sossusvlei, and evening stargazing with the resident astronomer.

THE STAY — ANDBEYOND SOSSUSVLEI DESERT LODGE
Ten stone-and-glass suites along an escarpment, each with a star-viewing skylight over the bed, a spring-fed pool, and an on-site observatory with a resident astronomer.

2 Nights · Fully Inclusive

A camp hidden among the boulders, where San rock art meets desert-adapted elephant.

Hidden amongst the towering boulders of Damaraland, this UNESCO World Heritage rock-art valley is best explored on guided excursions to the ancient engravings of Twyfelfontein, 4×4 game drives tracking desert-adapted elephant and rhino through the Aba-Huab River Valley, and guided walking safaris across the Damaraland desert.

THE STAY — MOWANI MOUNTAIN CAMP
Luxury tented suites built into the boulders of Damaraland, with open-air en-suite bathrooms and private decks facing the desert.

2 Nights · Fully Inclusive

A private reserve on Etosha’s southern boundary, where rhino conservation meets the salt pans beyond.

Sharing its southern boundary with Etosha National Park, the 30,000-hectare private Ongava Game Reserve is renowned for its rhino population and easy access to Etosha’s salt pans — game drives into Etosha National Park, guided nature walks, and the chance to take part in hands-on conservation research.

THE STAY — ANDERSSONS AT ONGAVA
Seven contemporary suites and one family unit in a private reserve on Etosha’s edge, built around a conservation research hub, waterhole viewing hide and pool.

Transfer to Hosea Kutako International Airport, Windhoek, for departure.
