Practical information

How to get there

Windhoek is the usual start point. We combine self-drive sections with charter flights for remote camps.

Climate

Namibia is arid with hot days and cool nights. Coastal fog cools the Skeleton Coast. Etosha’s dry season from May to October draws animals to waterholes.

Best time to visit

May to October suits wildlife and photography. We allow driving days to breathe — distances are part of the story.

Information & facts

  • Desert-adapted elephant and rhino
  • Black rhino in Damaraland
  • Large elephant and lion populations in Etosha
  • Oryx, springbok and zebra on open plains
  • Cape fur seals on the coast
  • High contrast landscapes define the journey
  • Remote camps reward slower pacing
  • Photography light is exceptional at dawn
