One for the adventure seekers, a comprehensive 2-week road trip discovering all the best of Namibia's northern regions. In your own 4x4, the drives will be long, but the scenery will be otherworldly and the wildlife encounters truly exceptional.
On your journey through Namibia’s north you will encounter contrasting landscapes, enjoy bucket-list activities, and get the chance to interact with diverse, and sometimes endangered, animals. You will see the coastal town of Swakopmund, situated between the desert and the sea. Here you can go dune surfing in the desert, hot air ballooning, sky diving, deep sea fishing and kayaking. Then, enjoy the unique Skeleton Coast, infinite ocean and desert, littered with the eerie remains of shipwrecks and whale bones, and home to a huge colony of Cape Fur Seals. Damaraland boasts some of the most impressive mountains in Namibia, spectacular desert vistas, plants that live for hundreds of years and awe-inspiring starry nights. The biggest draw to the area is the chance to track the rare desert-dwelling elephants and endangered black rhino. In the Etosha region, you will enjoy day and night Big 5 game drives and watch an abundance of wildlife at the famous waterholes. Finally, at the Okonjima Nature Reserve you will get the chance to learn more about the conservation of leopards and cheetah. This epic adventure will certainly leave you with lasting memories of a very special country.
