Description

Experience Namibia – perfectly planned, unforgettably diverse!

This journey combines well-considered logistics, a rich variety of experiences and the perfect balance between comfort and adventure. Let yourself be inspired by breathtaking landscapes, fascinating wildlife and the unique botanical diversity of Namibia.

Look forward to the vegetated dunes of the Kalahari, the imposing Fish River Canyon, the mysterious Quiver Tree Forest and the vast landscapes of the south. Experience the highest dunes in the world at Sossusvlei in the finest light and immerse yourself in the cultures of different ethnic groups – from the present day to ancient rock engravings.

A special focus lies on Namibia’s game-rich regions. We spend many days in different habitats with excellent opportunities for intensive wildlife observation. From giraffes, zebras and antelope to elephants, lions and rhinos – with a little luck you will experience an impressive variety of African wildlife.

You will be accompanied by the first-class guides of Leaflove Safari – experienced naturalists with sound knowledge of flora, fauna, geology and culture. This makes every wildlife sighting even more intense and every moment in Namibia’s nature even more valuable.

With the accommodation, too, we look for excellent value for money, ideal locations and restful comfort – for a journey that lets you experience Namibia in all its diversity.

Our Land Cruisers, specially converted for game viewing, have wide window seats and the lever roof is opened at the water points. So you can comfortably take photos sitting and standing up.

Map

Overview

Day 1
2.8.2027

Colourful acacia savannah of the Khomas Highlands
Arriving, unwinding and soaking up the first African sun. After a short orientation tour through Windhoek there is time for a gentle walk or the pool – and for those who wish, an afternoon game drive, where the first wildlife shows itself, sometimes even rhinos.

Day 2
3.8.2027

Linear dunes of the Kalahari
Morning light between camelthorn acacias on red dune sand – one photo moment after another. We admire the gigantic nests of the sociable weavers, search for the rare pygmy falcon and, with a little luck, the Cape cobra. In the afternoon a game drive takes us through the dune valleys to antelope and giraffes.

Days 3 & 4
4 & 5.8.2027

Fish River Canyon & the Giant's Playground
Breathtaking depth, deep-red aloes and superbly camouflaged stone grasshoppers: the second largest canyon on Earth fascinates geologically and scenically. Add the quiver trees among the dolerite boulders, rock hyraxes, agamas and Verreaux's eagles – solitude and endless space included.

Day 5
6.8.2027

Rare succulents, wild horses & stunning desert landscapes
Along the Orange River we search for the “Half-Man” – one of the rarest plants in the world, which always turns its head to the north. Afterwards we meet the famous wild horses of the Namib roaming free, before settling into the beautiful granite setting of Eagle’s Nest on the desert escarpment.

Days 6 & 7
7 & 8.8.2027

Dune landscapes at Sossusvlei & the Sesriem Canyon
The highest dunes in the world in soft morning light – we are ready at the park gate and experience Sossusvlei in its finest hour. Add the water-carved Sesriem Canyon and a far older, fossilised dune landscape glowing in deep orange.

Days 8 & 9
9 & 10.8.2027

Through the oldest desert to the Atlantic
Welwitschia, moon landscape and sculpted granite explored on foot, far from the main roads. Then Swakopmund tempts with coffee roasters, a gin distillery and seafood, while the lagoon of Walvis Bay delights with seals, dolphins and tens of thousands of seabirds.

Days 10 & 11
11 & 12.8.2027

Twyfelfontein & the desert elephants of Damaraland
Red sandstone formations, 6,000-year-old rock engravings and petrified trees from primeval times: Damaraland is an open-air museum of the Earth’s history. By 4x4 we track through the Awa-Huab dry river – in search of the rare desert elephants among the ana trees.

Days 12, 13 & 14
13.–15.8.2027

Etosha National Park – three days in a wildlife paradise
The vast salt pan feeds springs that attract elephants, lions, giraffes and, with patience, cheetahs and rhinos. We deliberately take our time: first the central area, then two nights in the game-rich east with direct access to the private Onguma reserve – photographed from our Land Cruiser with its open pop-up roof.

Days 15 & 16
16 & 17.8.2027

Okonjati – home of Mount Etjo
“Give more back to nature than you take” – in the 36,000-hectare game reserve founded by Jan Oelofse, some 10,000 wild animals and more than 600 bird species live today. In open 4x4 vehicles you explore the red rock formations with experienced rangers – past elephants, rhinos and termite mounds five metres high.

Day 17
18.8.2027

Farewell, sadly…
Once more the vastness of Namibia passes by the window while you sort through the images of the past two weeks – dunes, canyon, elephants, starry skies. We take you to the airport in good time and relaxed. And one thing we know from experience: Africa never really lets you go. Until we meet again!
Detailed itinerary

Day 1

2.8.2027

inclusive:

  • Dinner, bed and breakfast
  • In the afternoon, a scenic game drive awaits, offering the chance to observe a variety of antelope species and other wildlife – and, with a bit of luck, rhinoceroses in their natural habitat.

The colourful acacia savannah of the Khomas Highlands

After a long flight, it’s all about arriving, unwinding, and soaking up the first rays of African sun.

Upon your arrival at Windhoek International Airport, we’ll meet you and take you on a short orientation tour through Namibia’s capital. Along the way, you’ll discover a blend of old and new – from historic colonial landmarks such as the Christ Church, the Ink Palace, and the Alte Feste, to the modern cityscape of today’s Windhoek.

As you stroll through town, you’ll witness the vibrant interaction of Namibia’s many cultures. There will also be an opportunity to exchange currency and pick up a few essentials.

The remainder of the day is yours to enjoy – whether on a gentle walk, a short hike, or simply relaxing by the pool. For those who wish, there is also the option of joining an afternoon game drive, where you may be lucky enough to spot your first wildlife.

Day 2

3.8.2027

  • 1 overnight stay at this wonderfully atmospheric lodge, where you’ll sleep in your own comfortable tented chalet perched on the crest of a Kalahari dune. With its private shaded deck, wide views across the red dunes and surrounding savannah, and bathroom reached by a little wooden walkway, Teufelskrallen offers a wonderfully close-to-nature experience. It’s a place to slow down, enjoy the silence, and watch the changing colours of the Kalahari as the sun moves across the dunes.

  • Teufelskrallen Lodge

inclusive:

  • Dinner, Bed and Breakfast
  • 1 x Game drive through the linear dunes, where you’ll encounter not only beautiful landscapes and a variety of birdlife, but also a number of wildlife species adapted to this unique habitat.

Linear Dunes of the Kalahari

This morning walk is designed to open your eyes to the small wonders of the Kalahari – its birds, its delicate ecosystems, and the beauty hidden in plain sight. The soft morning light filtering through camelthorn acacias over red dune sand creates a photographer’s dream.

As you stroll across the dunes, keep an eye out for ground squirrels, admire the enormous communal nests of sociable weavers in ancient camelthorn trees, and scan the branches for the elusive pygmy falcon.

– With a bit of luck, you might even spot a Cape cobra, known to raid the nests of these communal birds.

In the afternoon, a game drive will take you into the dune valleys, where you’ll have the chance to observe various antelope species and giraffes moving gracefully through this unique desert landscape.

 

Days 3 & 4

4 & 5.8.2027

  • 2 overnight stays east of the canyon at a well-appointed lodge, beautifully nestled within the surrounding landscape and offering excellent opportunities for walking and exploration.

  • Canyon Lodge

inclusive:

  • Dinner, Bed and Breakfast

Quiver Trees in the “Giant’s Playground” – A Landscape of Stone and Silence

Today, you’ll explore the Giant’s Playground, a surreal landscape also known as the “Wart Field”. Here, solitude, vast open skies and bizarre dolerite rock formations shape not only the scenery, but also the lives of those who call this place home.

You’ll have ample time to photograph the iconic quiver trees nestled among the ancient boulders, and to delight in sightings of rock agamas and the ever-curious rock hyraxes as they bask in the sun.

Fishriver Canyon

The Fish River Canyon is nothing short of overwhelming – both geologically and scenically. Its striking rock formations, dramatic erosion valleys and sheer depth leave a lasting impression. Long ago, this breathtaking canyon already drew early explorers to what can only be described as a monumental natural wonder.

The flora of this semi-desert landscape is just as captivating: deep-red aloes, strikingly beautiful yet highly toxic euphorbias, brilliantly camouflaged stone grasshoppers, and extraordinary light that brings every texture to life.

One young boy, when asked for directions to the canyon, once said,
“Something terrible must have happened to the Earth here, a long time ago.”
And indeed – it’s a place that stirs the imagination.

Several viewpoints are easily accessible by vehicle, and we’ll take the time to walk along the canyon’s edge, where we’ll introduce you to the local wildlife and plants – from klipspringers, rock hyraxes and Verreaux’s eagles, to mountain zebras and agamas sunning themselves on the rocks.

 

Day 5

6.8.2027

  • 1 overnight stay in a beautifully secluded and highly individual lodge, nestled among striking granite formations. The views from the bungalows are simply magnificent.

  • Klein Aus Vista Lodge @ Eagle’s Nest on the escarpment of the Namib Desert

inclusive:

  • Dinner, Bed and Breakfast

Along the way, we visit the…
Wild Horses of the Namib Desert

The origin of the wild horses roaming the Namib Desert remains a topic of debate. Credible research suggests they may have descended from German and Boer horses left behind during the unsettled years of the First World War.

Whether or not these horses “belong” in the desert is a question best left to ecologists – but there’s no denying the thrill of watching them move freely across the arid plains.

And who knows? You might just capture that perfect shot of two stallions locked in a dramatic display of strength.

Rare Succulents, Wild Horses & Striking Desert Landscapes

On this leg of the journey, the road itself becomes the destination. Travelling along the Orange River, we’ll be on the lookout for one of the rarest plant species in the world. Legend has it that fugitives from ancient times were turned into plants – and thus was born the biblical tale behind the “Half-Man”, Pachypodium namaquanum, a strange succulent that always turns its “head” to the north.

This seemingly lifeless metamorphic rock desert holds far more than meets the eye: stunning scenery, secretive small creatures, fascinating birdlife – and several other species of quiver trees, which we’ll be glad to introduce you to.

The lush green vegetation along the banks of the Orange River stands in vivid contrast to the arid stone desert – a beautiful reminder of nature’s extremes.

Days 6 & 7

7 & 8.8.2027

 

  • 1 overnight stay beautifully set amidst a mesmerising interplay of living dunes, ancient fossilised sandscapes, linear desert oases, and the wide gravel plains of the Namib.

  • Barkhan Dune Retreat

 

inclusive:

  • Dinner, Bed and Breakfast

Dune landscapes at Sossusvlei, the Sesriem Canyon, and stunning desert vistas

A dune landscape bathed in soft morning light – and the highest of its kind in the world – creates an unforgettable panorama.
The Tsauchab dry river was cut off from the ocean by mighty wandering dunes, creating a unique clay pan: the Sossusvlei. Framed by ancient camelthorn acacias and green, thorny !Nara plants, the pan is surrounded by imposing, glowing red star and crescent dunes.
We set off early in the morning and are at the park gate as the first rays of sun appear. This brings us to the dunes in the wonderfully soft light of the morning, when the shadows still trace every crest line sharply and temperatures are pleasantly cool – ideal conditions for impressive photography and an intense desert experience. Those who brave the climb are rewarded with breathtaking views.
Another geological highlight is the Sesriem Canyon, carved by the Tsauchab over millennia. In earlier times, ox-wagon drivers had to tie six leather straps together to draw water from the deep gorge – hence the name “Sesriem”. A short walk into the canyon is well worth it!
Beneath the young dune world lies a far older, fossilised dune landscape in glowing deep orange. Together with the endless grass plains, the gallery forests of camelthorn acacias, the dolomitic mountain scenery and the majestic dunes, it forms an extraordinary, fascinating picture. Let us show you!

Days 8 & 9

9 & 10.8.2027

  • 2 nights in a stylish, intimate guesthouse in a quiet part of Swakopmund – just a short walk from the beach and town centre. 

  • Hotel Pension Rapmund

inclusive:

  • Bed and Breakfast

not included:

  • Dinner Swakopmund offers a variety of excellent restaurants, and we’ll be happy to advise you and make a reservation on your behalf. Many establishments serve fresh fish and delicious seafood daily – but if you’re in the mood for something heartier, you’ll also find a proper, well-prepared pork roast on the menu.

Optional activities around Swakopmund:

Living Desert / Little Five Tour:

The best-known activity around Swakopmund. Discover the Namib’s remarkable small creatures and how they’ve adapted to one of the most extreme landscapes on Earth.

Swakop Fatbike Tours:

Explore the dunes on specially designed fatbikes – the wide tires make riding through the sand surprisingly easy and offer a fresh perspective on the desert.

Scenic Flights over the Namib:

An unforgettable experience over the dunes to Sossusvlei or along the Skeleton Coast. We particularly recommend the two- to two-and-a-half-hour flight.

Historical Walking Tour:

A guided walk with a true Swakopmund local – history, background stories, and little-known secrets of the town, straight from the source.

Walvis Bay – Catamaran Cruise:

About 30 km south lies Walvis Bay, home to an 11,000-hectare lagoon and an important wetland. During the cruise, you’ll encounter flamingos, pelicans, seals, dolphins, and, with luck, whales or sunfish – topped off with fresh oysters and a glass of sparkling wine.

Walvis Bay – Kayak Tour:

For a more immersive nature experience: paddle the lagoon and get within a few meters of curious seals, enjoying the tranquility of this unique coastal landscape from a whole new perspective.

The road to Swakopmund…oldest desert to the majestic Atlantic Ocean…

The vast gravel plains of the Namib stretch out before us, occasionally interrupted by distant mountain peaks or a shimmering horizon. Along long, straight roads – sometimes trailing a faint dust cloud – we venture far from the main routes to explore sculpted granite landscapes, ancient erosion valleys, and dry riverbeds.
This almost eerily silent environment is surprisingly full of life: giraffes, zebras, and antelope often appear – and with a bit of luck, even cheetahs may cross our path.
On foot, we visit the secluded cave once used by two geologists whose story is told in the book “Sheltering Desert” – so be sure to have your walking shoes ready.
Along the way, we’ll introduce you to the world-famous Welwitschia mirabilis, some over 1,500 years old, as well as ancient lichen fields and the dramatic Swakop dry river valley, also known as the “Moon Landscape” for its otherworldly terrain.
Our journey leads us to Swakopmund, a charming coastal town that invites relaxed strolling, sunbathing (weather permitting), and visits to both modern and colonial landmarks. Cosy cafés, local coffee roasters, a renowned gin distillery, vibrant art galleries, and an unmistakably laid-back atmosphere often tempt visitors to linger longer than planned.
Swakopmund also boasts Namibia’s best privately run museum, a crystal gallery, and the picturesque bathing bay known as the Mole.

Days 10 & 11

11 & 12.8.2027

  • 2 nights at a beautifully situated lodge in the spectacular landscapes of Damaraland, surrounded by red sandstone formations, towering basalt hills and the dry riverbeds of the desert adapted elephants.

 

inclusive:

  • Dinner, bed and breakfast
  • Guided tour to the petroglyphs at Twyfelfontein
  • 4×4 game drive into the Awa-Huab dry river in search of the desert elephants

Twyfelfontein

Not to be missed are the 4,000–6,000-year-old petroglyphs at Twyfelfontein, the “Burnt Mountain” and the basaltic “Organ Pipes”. Around 200 million years ago, giant primeval Cordaites trees were washed here in vast mudflows from central Africa, buried under sludge and fossilised. Today they can be admired as a fascinating geological formation.
A 4×4 excursion through the Huab dry river takes us in search of the desert-dwelling elephants. What fascinates is not only their ability to survive in this extreme environment, but also the unique desert landscape that surrounds them.
A detour leads to Cape Cross with its gigantic seal colony and the historic relics of the Portuguese seafarer Diogo Cão, who erected a stone cross here in 1486 as the first European.

Days 12, 13 & 14

13, 14 & 15.8.2027

  • 1 night in a well-appointed private lodge located outside the park but within the central area of the national park.
  • Etosha Omusati Lodge

 

  • 2 nights @ a tranquil retreat tucked beneath shady trees on the eastern edge of Etosha. This intimate camp combines rustic charm with warm hospitality, offering comfortable thatched chalets, a relaxed atmosphere, and easy access to excellent wildlife viewing in Onguma’s private reserve.

  • Onguma Bush Camp 

 

inclusive:

  • Dinner, Bed and Breakfast

 

Why choose a safari with us?

Our Land Cruisers have been specially modified for wildlife observation, providing spacious window seats. Additionally, the rooftop can be opened at watering holes, allowing you to comfortably take photographs while sitting or standing

Etosha National Park

Etosha National Park is one of the most wildlife-rich parks in Africa, despite its arid nature. The 4,000 km² salt and clay pan in the southern part of the park feeds natural springs that attract large numbers of animals, especially during the dry and hot seasons.

The park is divided into distinct vegetation zones: central Etosha features acacia savannah, the middle region is dominated by dense mopane woodland, and the eastern part transitions into dry forest – each zone home to a different variety of wildlife.

As you travel through the park, you’ll have the chance to observe a wide range of animals, including elephants and big cats. Early mornings and a bit of patience are often rewarded with remarkable sightings.

We’ve planned two overnight stays in the eastern part of the park, where the denser vegetation and numerous water sources support a particularly high concentration of wildlife. Your chances of seeing lions, Damara dik-diks, blue cranes, and even rhinos are especially good here.

 

Days 15 & 16

16 & 17.8.2027

“Give more back to nature than you take”
This is the guiding philosophy — and the goal — of Jan Oelofse, a world-renowned conservationist who founded the Okonjati Game Reserve in 1975.

inclusive:

  • Dinner, overnight stay and breakfast
  • 2 x game drives in an open 4×4 vehicle

Okonjati – Home of Mount Etjo

Today’s journey takes you to the striking red sandstone formations of Mount Etjo, surrounded by the dense Acacia savanna of the Okonjati Game Reserve. Established by Jan Oelofse in 1975, the reserve has grown over the decades to cover approximately 36,000 hectares and now provides a protected home for around 10,000 animals and more than 600 bird species. Despite its name, meaning “Place of the Buffalo”, buffalo are no longer found here.

During an open vehicle game drive with experienced guides, you will explore this diverse wilderness in search of its remarkable wildlife. Elephants, rhinos, giraffes and lions are regularly encountered, while greater kudu, warthogs and many other species are common throughout the reserve. The landscape is also characterised by impressive termite mounds, some reaching heights of up to five metres.

Day 17

18.8.2027

Would you like to fly today or tomorrow?!

Many of your guests opt to combine the final leg of their journey with the airport transfer and check-in during the afternoon. However, recognizing that some prefer to explore the city further or minimize the last-day stress, you arrange an extra night in Windhoek or a stylish accommodation near the airport upon request.
Namibia boasts excellent connectivity, with various airlines departing from either Windhoek, the capital, or Walvis Bay, providing flexibility for your travel preferences.
Additionally, some guests choose to enhance their experience with an added component, such as a fly-in to the Caprivi, a visit to the Okavango Delta, or a few days in Cape Town. The choice is entirely yours, and you’re here to accommodate your preferences.

a sad farewell…

The final travel day unfolds efficiently, leaving time – if desired – for a last stroll through the capital to pick up handcrafted Namibian souvenirs, or simply to let the landscapes of the past two weeks sink in.
As most international flights to Europe depart in the afternoon, late afternoon or overnight, we recommend spending your final night just outside Windhoek. This allows you to unwind at the end of your journey, while still reaching the airport with plenty of time and no rush.
In the afternoon, we will either take you directly to the airport, or to a recommended lodge, from where we will arrange a reliable transfer to your departing flight.

Please get in touch with us, and we will be happy to send you the detailed itinerary with specific accommodation information and relevant links.

 

 

Why April is an ideal time for landscape photography in Namibia:
Following the summer rains, Namibia reveals its most colourful side in April: fresh greenery, blooming plants and crisp, clear air create perfect conditions for atmospheric photography. The contrast between red sand, blue skies and vibrant bushland is especially striking – and the soft light of morning and evening makes the landscape glow.

 

The trip definitely begins and ends at Hosea Kutako International Airport in Windhoek, the capital of Namibia. However, additional days can be arranged upon request, with transfers included.

Walvis Bay is served daily from Johannesburg and Cape Town and makes an excellent addition to the itinerary, as many of our guests choose to spend a few days relaxing in Cape Town or Swakopmund after the tour.

 

In a time when flight bookings are just a few clicks away, it may seem old-fashioned to involve a travel agent. But when it comes to navigating the ever-changing world of air travel—delays, reroutes, strikes, cancellations, and the charming surprise of “you no longer have a seat”—working with a real human still has very real advantages when unexpected challenges arise, such as:

  • Delays and last-minute flight changes

  • Strikes or changes made by the airline

  • Seat changes without prior notification

  • The need to rebook during your trip

Especially in those moments—just imagine being on safari while these changes occur—it is incredibly helpful to have a reliable contact person who handles everything quickly and professionally.

Our Recommendation:

Even if booking flights through a travel agency may seem slightly more expensive, it is absolutely worth the investment. The service, support, and peace of mind it provides, particularly in problematic situations, are priceless.

We’ve had consistently excellent experiences with the following agencies – they are professional, fast, and reliable.

Important:

Please make sure to always mention that you are booking through Leaflove Safari / Albert Voigts.

This is the only way we can ensure that all flight times are accurately recorded and that we can coordinate with the agents to perfectly align the itinerary with your travel plans – e.g. for organizing transfers, airport greetings, or handling last-minute changes.
