Luxury Namibia Family Safari

Inspirational safari family holiday to Namibia

A family fly-in Namibia adventure including 3 of the country’s most iconic destinations, Sossusvlei, the Skeleton Coast and Etosha.  Sossusvlei Desert Lodge is your first stop, a desertscape of sand, stones, stars, sustainability, and silence.  Walk across ancient sands, hike the famous Dunes, take to the sky in a hot air balloon and luxuriate in the views from your private plunge pool.  Your kids and teens will also be entertained by the Wild Child programme of nature-based activities.

Next, Hoanib Skeleton Coast.  You and the kids will go in search of desert-adapted wildlife – elephants, lions, hyaenas, giraffes and oryxes or see the Skeleton Coast, a wild stretch of the Atlantic where the desert meets the sea and where the white sand beaches are littered with whale bones and shipwreck remains. Cap off this wilderness experience with a Big 5 safari at Ongava Private Game Reserve which borders the Etosha National Park.  From Ongava Tented Camp, you will see elephants, lions, giraffe, black and white rhino and several antelope species.
