Namibia Christmas Escape

Arrive in Namibia’s capital for your included airport transfer and Windhoek city tour. Discover the city’s distinctive character before settling into your chosen accommodation category, with time to unwind ahead of your desert, coast and wildlife journey.

Leave Windhoek and travel towards Sossusvlei along a scenic route through Namibia’s changing landscapes. Enjoy the journey with your professional guide before settling into your accommodation and preparing for the following morning’s sunrise experience among the dunes.

Rise early for the poster’s sunrise experience at Sossusvlei and Deadvlei. Watch the first light illuminate towering dunes and the stark trees of the clay pan, allowing time to appreciate and photograph this extraordinary desert setting.

Drive from the desert to Swakopmund, where Atlantic breezes introduce a refreshing change of scenery. The remainder of the day is free, ideal for a leisurely waterfront walk or simply relaxing and enjoying the town’s coastal atmosphere.

Join the scheduled tour from Swakopmund to Walvis Bay and discover another side of Namibia’s coast. An optional boat cruise offers an additional perspective from the water; this activity is not included in the advertised package price.

Continue to Damaraland, a region celebrated for its wildlife and striking rock formations. Travel through rugged scenery with your guide, looking out for animals along the way and enjoying the landscape without assuming any particular wildlife sighting.

Explore Damaraland with a visit to Twyfelfontein and its remarkable rock engravings. Your guided excursion brings a cultural dimension to the journey, complementing the region’s dramatic geology and offering time to appreciate its ancient artistic heritage.

Travel onwards to Etosha National Park for an afternoon game drive. Accompanied by your professional guide, begin exploring the park’s wildlife habitats and waterholes, watching for animals as the light softens across the open landscape.

Spend a full day on safari in Etosha, allowing ample time to explore with your guide. Visit promising wildlife-viewing areas and waterholes, enjoying the rhythm of the bush while remembering that animal encounters remain wonderfully unpredictable.

Return to Windhoek after your final breakfast and complete the journey with an included airport transfer. Arrange international flights separately, ensuring your departure timing allows for the overland return and the necessary airport check-in formalities.
