Best of Namibia and Mauritius Beach Vacation

Inspirational safari & beach holiday to Namibia and Mauritius

Deserts, safari, and tropical island beaches are just some of the elements of this diverse trip, combining 2 very different countries, Namibia, and Mauritius.  In Namibia you will take in the country's prime destinations whilst staying in some of its most exclusive and luxurious accommodation. Flying throughout to avoid the long drives in this vast country, you can hot air balloon over the red dunes at Sossusvlei; see the shipwrecks and whale bones of the remote Skeleton Coast; go rhino tracking in Damaraland and enjoy a Big 5 safari in Namibia's premier game reserve, Etosha. When you've had your fill of the incredible landscapes, sunsets, wildlife and culture, fly to the Indian Ocean Island of Mauritius to put your feet up and relax.  At the JW Marriott Mauritius Resort you can expect to be pampered with 5-star service, relaxing spa treatments, a host of water sports, as well as outstanding Mauritian cuisine.
