Safari OverviewIf you are looking for a quiet, relaxed, but still visually stunning safari in the wonderful country of Namibia then we have the perfect itinerary for you.
Our 8-Day Southern Namibia safari explores the spectacular natural beauty and top attractions of this special part of an already fantastic country. We will set off from the capital city of Windhoek and spend a night in the red dunes of the Kalahari near Mariental.
Next up is the Canyon Park and the mind-blowing Fish River Canyon, before the tour continues to Aus, Lüderitz, the ghost town of Kolmanskop, and the famous wild Namib Desert Horses.
We also visit one of the top attraction in all of southern Africa, the high sand dunes around Sossusvlei, and lastly we go to the coastal holiday town of Swakopmund, the outdoor sport capital of the country.
This safari easily combines with visits to dramatic Damaraland, or with an extension to world famous Etosha National Park.
