Luxury Self Drive Tour with Skeleton Coast

This flexible itinerary beautifully highlights the natural landscape of Namibia. Namibia’s contrasting areas are well connected with easy to navigate and wonderfully scenic network, of tar and well maintained gravel roads. This flexible journey has been designed to showcase the best of Namibia’s landscapes and wildlife.

Your journey starts in the Namib Desert, world famous for its spectacular dunes which change colour as the sun rises and falls.

The next leg of your journey takes you across the desert to the old whaling centre of Walvis Bay. A catamaran trip and dolphin cruise is included. The rich Benguela current creates a rich marine environment home to whale’s, seals and dolphins. The surrounding salt flats are home to many birds including Flamingos and Pelicans.

Continuing your journey northwards into Damaraland, you will explore a huge wilderness and incredibly photogenic region, home to unusual desert adapted wildlife, including the last free ranging black rhino on earth and the fascinating Herero and nomadic Himba people.

Leave the car for a few days and fly into the remote Northern Damaraland and spend some time exploring this harsh but beautiful environment that is known by the Bushmen as “the land God made in anger”, with thousands of miles of sandy coastal desert dotted with shipwrecks. Your stay here includes a full day “fly in” excursion to the Skeleton Coast National Park.

Your journey continues by road into Etosha National Park, Namibia’s’ premier reserve for some great wildlife viewing, you will be staying both inside the park and in a private concession adjacent to the park where a wider range of activities are possible.

The final leg of your journey takes you to Okonjima, home of the AfriCat foundation and one of the best places to see big cats up close and personal.
