Departing on Thursdays from Windhoek, this 4 day & three night accommodated safari is the perfect way to experience Swakopmund on the Skeleton Coast and the stunning sand dunes of the Namib Desert. The Ramsar Site at Walvis Bay and the big dunes. Big Daddy, Big Mamma and the iconic Dune 7.
Relaxation or thrills and spills in in Swakopmund, the choice is yours, then heading for adventure on a magical trip to one of the most beautiful places on Planet Earth, the centre of the Namib - the oldest desert in the world. From the coast we cross the vast gravel plains that stretch inland for over 100km. We traverse high mountain passes and cross The Tropic of Capricorn on our way down to the dune fields.
A pre-dawn start to catch the soft light of sunrise as we head for Dead Vlei with its stark collection of skeleton trees and on to Sossusvlei, waters end for an ancient river. We watch out for wildlife, oryx and springbok are often seen in this sandy land but if we look and have sharp eyes, the dunes are also home to a full menagerie of reptiles, beetles, insects, rodents and birds. All these creatures are uniquely desert adapted survive in this waterless wonderland using super-power evolutionary adaptations. The Namib Desert is internationally recognised as a top biodiversity hot spot in a desert habitat. Climbing a towering sand dune, 300 m from top-to-toe, is an experience unique to Namibia, Big Daddy, Big Mamma and Dune 45 are all waiting to be conquered if you are feeling intrepid and want to experience the view from such a lofty perch. We visit the Solitaire cheetah conservation project, then homeward bound up-and-over rocky mountains as we climb our way up the central plateau and across the Khomas Hochland mountains to Windhoek.

I've been solo traveling for the last 9 months and chose this tour with G Adventures as my grand finale and I'm so happy that I did. Our CEOs were so knowledgable and helpful that I felt like my brain was off for half of the month. Every day holds some sort of fun adventure without the usual work that comes along with most travel because those logistics are being taken care of for you. In my option, there is not better way to overland Southern Africa than this tour. We got to see things and go places that we never would have been able to go to on our own. It was such a wonderful experience.

On this stunning trip enjoy the ever-changing allure of the Namibian landscape. You will begin your trip in Windhoek and later make your way to the deserts of the Namib-Naukluft National Park, where you will have the opportunity to admire the breathtaking views, a variety of apricot, red and orange, contrasted against a crisp blue skyline. Later you will move on to the coastal town of Swakopmund, the playground of Namibia, where you will push your senses and see the animals and plants that survive in the region. Enjoy Damaraland, located in one of the most geologically diverse areas in Africa. Finally, spend 3 days admiring Africa’s celebrated wildlife in Etosha’s National Park, the ideal destination for a game drive in search of the big five before you prepare to go back to Windhoek where your tour comes to an end!

Absolutely fantastic! The CEO’s made this such a memorable trip from start to finish. I’d like to give a special mention to Elke who was on her training trip. Sje was so professional and already so knowledgeable of everything we needed to know on the trip. In fact for the first 8 days, I didn’t even realise she was on a training trip and thought she was another CEO. She will be a real asset to the GAdventures team. This was a trio of a lifetime for me and was so special. The activities, culture, animals, people, food and everything else was to the highest standard thanks to the CEO’s. I will be booking another trip with G Adventures soon for sure!!

A wonderful experience in seeing South Africa, Namibia, Botswana and Zimbabwe. Although the travel time is long due to the distance covered, the sites and activities are great. The CEOs and driver add to the experience because of the positive and smiling attitude and their knowledge about the region.

This trip not only met but exceeded my expectations and it was an amazing introduction to Southern Africa. I felt sad to be leaving the group in Windhoek as they continued on to Victoria Falls, but I also felt energized and more interested than ever in planning another trip and exploring more of the region in the years to come.
