Namibia is raw. Its stark beauty, endless views and ephemeral landscapes are a great backdrop to reconnect with the wild and explore what makes Namibia so captivating.

This eleven-night flying safari will take you to the most incredible corners of Namibia. A country that is famous for its staggering desertscapes, pristine wilderness, eery coast and wildlife that has adapted to the harsh Namib desert to survive. After a good night’s rest in Windhoek, you will board a small Cessna plane and enjoy an epic flight to Etosha, Namibia’s richest park for wildlife. The game congregates around the waterholes making the game viewing as rewarding as it is easy. You can expect to spot everything from lions, cheetahs and leopards to elephants, zebras and wildebeest on your Namibian safari. Stepping away from Etosha, you will then fly to Damaraland where you dive into the planet’s geological history. Stop in awe at the prehistoric rock engravings created by the indigenous San people at Twyfelfontein and marvel at the wildlife that have found refuge in the barren and breath-taking desert.

Moving onto the coast, you head to the seaside town of Swakopmund which will, no doubt, bring a smile to your face. From its Germanic feel and the cream pastries you can buy from traditional coffee shops to adrenaline boosting activities and fierce Atlantic Ocean in all its grandeur; Swakopmund is full of surprises at every corner. We’ve included a car hire for your stay in Swakopmund so that you can have your own adventure including a unique sightseeing tour as you kayak amongst dolphins and fur seals in Walvis Bay.

You then leave the coast and catch a flight south to the spectacular Namib-Naukluft National Park and its iconic terracotta dunes. Watching the sunrise over the sand dunes, learning about the surprising ecosystem of the national park and looking up to the clear skies and Milky Way at night will ensure your Namibian safari finishes on a high note.

Experience highlights

  • Travelling by small planes all over Namibia is undoubtedly the best way to take in the scale of the Namibian landscapes. A birds eye view means more unmissable photo opportunities. 
  • Get up close and personal with the wildlife on a shared game drive on the private 30,000 hectares Ongava Game Reserve and Etosha National Park.
  • In Etosha, your dedicated safari guide from the camp will take your game viewing to the next level with his in-depth specialist knowledge of the Namibian bush. Whether you head to the Etosha National Parks Salt Pan or stop at one of the waterholes to watch a parade of animals come to quench their thirst, you will be rewarded with fantastic game viewing with elephants, zebras, giraffes, lions, oryx and even rhinos to name a few.   
  • Discover Damaraland on a day excursion with your specialist guide, where you’ll see the extraordinary artwork of the San People at Twyvelfontein which boasts the largest and most pristine rock engravings and paintings in Africa.
  • Early morning on your day at leisure in Swakopmund, you drive yourself to Pelican Point for a kayaking excursion. Marvel at the coast from a very different angle and be prepared to kayak in the middle of a Cape fur seal colony and hopefully dolphins.
  • Soar above the endless terracotta dunes of the Namib desert in a hot air balloon and marvel at the contrasts the desertscapes offer and capture some of the most striking photographs you will take all holiday.
  • Sleep under the stars on the rooftop of your tented room. Lose yourself in the starry night skies of the NamibRand Reserve and be soothed by the sounds of the Namib Desert.
