The route

Palmwag Concession: Supports nearly 70% of the world’s largest free roaming population of black rhinos.
Damaraland: A rugged and remote region characterized by rocky landscapes, ancient rock engravings at Twyfelfontein, and the chance to encounter desert-adapted elephants and rhinos.
Skeleton Coast: A desolate coastline known for its shipwrecks and seal colony at Cape Cross - one of the largest seal colonies in the world.
Swakopmund: A charming coastal city that blends German colonial architecture with activities like quad biking with a nature historian or searching for the “small five” in the Namib Dessert.
Sossusvlei and Deadvlei: These iconic landscapes within the Namib-Naukluft National Park feature towering red sand dunes and a surreal white clay pan dotted with ancient dead camel thorn trees.

Namibia
Stunning Deserts & Wildlife
Namibia's landscapes are breath-taking and diverse, as is it’s wildlife, making it a true paradise for adventurers and nature enthusiasts alike.
On this three week guided self drive adventure you will follow the best of Namibia’s “backroads”. This will include tar, plenty of dirt, some sand and rough tracks. At the end of your adventurous day you will rest in hand selected lodges and hotels that have been hand picked for their location or their uniqueness.
You can expect excellent quality meals during the adventure. Breakfast and dinners will be mostly provided by your hotel or lodge. Your 4x4 will have a full set of picnic gear and a fridge so that we can have picnic lunches along the way.
There are optional activities to choose from or simply relax in the lodge and enjoy the Namibian bush.
