Deserts and Wildlife Namibia Honeymoon

Inspirational safari honeymoon to Namibia

A fly-in Namibia honeymoon visiting 3 of the country’s most iconic destinations, Sossusvlei, the Skeleton Coast and Etosha. Offering sublime tranquility, Sossusvlei Desert Lodge is your first stop, a desert scape 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. 

Next, the remote Hoanib Skeleton Coast where you 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 romantic wilderness experience with a Big 5 safari at Ongava Private Game Reserve which borders the Etosha National Park. From the luxurious and intimate Little Ongava Camp, where on day and night game drives, you will see elephants, lions, giraffes, black and white rhinos, and several antelope species.
