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.
G Adventures was the perfect tour operator for my first trip to Africa with my daughter, who had already toured some other African countries. For me, the Wonders of Namibia was the perfect level of activity and touring. It was not just an overview of this beautiful country, but a total immersion into the landscape, the wildlife, and the culture. I saw, I listened, and I learned.

Overall an excellent trip. It would have been nice to have stayed longer in some lodges particularly those at the end of the trip. Although I found the information at the Cheetah Conservation foundation interesting I didn't find it an entirely comfortable experience. I found the optional Living Desert Tour very enlightening and the sand dunes stunning. Perhaps it should be part of the trip.

I wasn't sure when I signed up for this particular tour if it was the right one for me so my expectations were reasonably low. What I actually experienced was one of the best tours I have participate in. The whole experience was brilliant. However, the Okavango Delta absolutely blew me away and had such a profound effect on my outlook on life and sitting around fire under the starlit sky will live in my memory forever.
The whole journey through Botswana was truly life changing - at times so basic, but equally, so beautiful. Africa has stolen a piece of my heart and I can not wait to return to explore more with G Adventures.
Excellent experience. A trip the family will not forget. My daughter especially made a connection with Johannes in the delta preparing the meal for the group. It is these types of interactions with people from different parts of the world that I really wanted to share with my kids. This trip achieved that and so much more. A terrific learning experience about flora, fauna and people of a different culture. All boxes ticked for Africa
Those three weeks were three of the best I ever had in my life. The different countries surprised me in the best way possible. The trip has so much to offer. Amazing landscapes and experiences! Camping was a sometimes difficult but a very good experience too and I really enjoyed the time without phones around the bonfire. I was blessed with the best group ever and the best possible two guides that made the trip even more worth it! I'm back home with a heart full of new memories & experiences and most importantly with a lot of good new friends all over the world. I'll never forget this trip! Thanks to everyone who was a part of it and made it even more special!
