This comprehensive Namibia tour reveals the country’s tremendous diversity of scenery, culture, and wildlife. Traverse Etosha National Park with stops at productive waterholes to view abundant wildlife—zebras, wildebeest, Damara dik-dik, white and black rhinos, and a wealth of bird species, which in turn attracts a host of predators, from cheetahs and lions to hyenas and jackals. On this Namibia expedition, track desert-adapted elephants in Damaraland and visit a Himba village with local guides. At Walvis Bay board a catamaran cruise to spot seabirds and marine life, accompanied by fresh oysters and local sparkling wine. Your Namibia adventure culminates with a visit to the famed Sossusvlei dunes at sunrise and the ultimate desert camp experience.

  • Join Jonathan Rossouw on a brand-new Namibian adventure that offers an in-depth view of Namibia’s wild coasts, rugged mountains, otherworldly deserts, stunning wildlife, and rich cultural heritage.
  • Discover an abundance of wildlife including unique desert-adapted elephants in Damaraland, as well as black and white rhinos—Namibia is one of the only regions in Africa where both species are found.
  • Photograph the dunes of the Namib Desert, a surrealistic landscape of massive ochre-hued dunes canopied by indigo skies.
  • Meet the Himba people, one of the last remaining nomadic tribes in Africa.
  • View the amazing rock art of Twyfelfontein. This World Heritage Site is considered to hold the largest and finest collection of petroglyphs in Africa.
  • Search for over 340 species of birds, from huge concentrations of flamingos, gannets, and African penguins to rare desert-adapted endemics such as dune larks, Rueppell’s bustards, and Damara rockjumpers.
