About this trip

A week that takes you from Namibia's dune fields to its coast and into one of the country's best wildlife areas, with a stop for local craft culture along the way.

You'll see the towering dunes at Sossusvlei, spend time on the coast at Swakopmund, and head into Etosha National Park, known as one of Africa's best spots for waterhole game viewing.

There's also a visit to Okahandja, home to Namibia's largest wood carving market, giving the trip a cultural stop alongside the landscapes and wildlife.

What you'll do

  • Explore the dunes at Sossusvlei
  • Game viewing at Etosha's waterholes, among the best in Africa for spotting wildlife
  • Time on the coast at Swakopmund
  • Browse Namibia's largest wood carving market in Okahandja
Good to know
  • The route covers desert, coast and wildlife areas in one week, so expect real distances between stops.
What travellers actually say

Worth it if you want to see Namibia's major highlights with guides who genuinely care. Think twice if pre-trip admin stress winds you up.

  • Guide quality is genuinely exceptional. Shawn, Sylvester, John all named specifically for knowledge, safety, animal spotting, and going beyond.
  • Seven days covers serious ground: Sossusvlei dunes, Swakopmund coast, Etosha wildlife in one tight itinerary without feeling rushed.
  • Pre-trip paperwork from operator was slow; hotel confirmations arrived late and one guide was booked 25km from group at Etosha.
  • Heavy driving days, especially early legs Windhoek to desert, but reviewers agreed sights made the car time worth it.
