Windhoek and Central Region

This comprehensive self-drive itinerary takes in the many highlights of Namibia, from the semi-desert of the Kalahari in the south to the spectacular Waterberg Plateau in the north. You’ll be able to discover these vast landscapes at your own pace, with the added flexibility that comes with a self-drive holiday. The itinerary is fully flexible and can be adapted to suit your interests. If you do not have the time available for this extensive route, then an abbreviated version is possible.

Explore Namibia’s little-visited northern territories in this 17-day safari. Your self-drive tour begins in Namibia’s vibrant capital, Windhoek, from where you travel west to the coastal enclave of Swakopmund. From Swakopmund, you begin your journey into the remote northern regions, taking in the rugged beauty of Damaraland, the vast Etosha salt pans, and the lush floodplains of Caprivi, before returning via the Waterberg Plateau.

This twelve-day overview of central and northern Namibia includes plenty of wildlife-viewing - elephant and rhino tracking in Damaraland and Etosha, big cat spotting in Okonjima - time spent exploring the attractions of Namibia's caital Windhoek, sea kayaking off the coast of Swakopmund, and visits to two of Namibia's most famous landmarks, Twyfelfontein and Sossusvlei.

This self-drive camping itinerary is designed for those who love the outdoors and enjoy independent exploration. You will visit some of the most scenic locations in Namibia, sleep under the stars, and explore at your own pace. Your campervan has everything you need and you will be provided with detailed directions and a mobile phone for local access. In a small number of the locations you visit, camping is not an option and instead you will have a self-catering apartment.

Starting in Windhoek, you’ll journey north-west through the wild, semi-desert terrain of Damaraland and Kaokoland to reach the remote Hoanib Valley. Here you’ll spend three days at the fabulous Hoanib Valley Camp, looking for the rare desert-adapted elephant amid towering mountains, vast dunes and huge expanses of desert. From Hoanib Valley, you continue west to the starkly beautiful Skeleton Coast, before returning to Windhoek via Okonjima.

This is an exhilarating small group riding safari through some of the most dramatic landscapes in southern Africa. You will ride well off the beaten track as you explore the rugged terrain of Damaraland and the Skeleton Coast. Your ride starts along the Aba Huab Riverbed and continues on to the coastal plains. At the end of each day, after a delicious meal, you will climb into your camp bed and fall asleep under the magnificent star-lit skies of Africa.
