ACTIVITIES

This safari is unlike any other of our safaris. The area is so vast and there is so much to see and experience that we abandon our traditional early morning and afternoon activities. We leave camp after breakfast and spend the full day exploring the park. A picnic lunch is enjoyed out in the wild and we return to base camp in the late afternoon. We travel in 4×4 Land Rovers and cover an extraordinary variety of terrains.

Activities include the following:

Full day nature drives with walks
Excursions to seal colony and natural springs
Coastal ecology
Visit to a working Himba village and tracking Desert Elephants
Visit to the clay castles/roaring dunes/lichen fields as well as other areas of amazing geographical diversity.
