With a warm smile, your guide welcomes you to Namibia and after a short safari briefing, you leave Windhoek behind and make your way north. You will be amazed at all the wide-open spaces Namibia has to offer. Along your way you pass through the small towns of Otjiwarongo and Outjo. From Outjo, your accommodation lies only a little further on, the Etosha Safari Camp. After a brief check-in, you proceed to the Etosha National Park entrance gate and then your first game drive can begin. Your guide’s trained eyes and experience will help you spot animals you might not even have known where there. As the sun begins to set and with your first safari impressions in tow, you make your way back to your camp. In the evening, a delicious dinner awaits you.

Today is all about safari which means you will want to get up early and make the most of your day. Due to the often very dry nature of the Etosha landscape, the watering holes are the places to be. This is where a wide variety of animals congregate and it can lead to fantastic safari moments. Take some time to enjoy the wildlife spectacle before your eyes and be sure to also take some amazing photographs. If you are very lucky, you may even spot a rhino as the Etosha National Park is one of the limited places where these magnificent creatures can be seen in the wild. After an exciting day of game viewing, exploring and hopefully many sightings, you return to the Etosha Safari Camp, where you spend another night.

In the morning, you can enjoy a relaxed breakfast before you start your return leg to Windhoek. Along the way, your guide can tell you more about everyday life in Namibia, its people and some of their stories. A popular stop is in Okahandja, where you can grab a cup coffee or a light lunch (both optional). In the early afternoon, you will reach Windhoek whereupon your guide will drop you off at either your next lodge or the Windhoek airport, in either case we wish you safe travels ahead.
