15 Day Namibia Discovery Guided Tour
Windhoek
Upon arrival at Hosea Kutako International Airport, your guide will meet you in the arrivals hall. We then travel through scenic mountainous terrain to Windhoek, Namibia’s capital city, nestled in the lush valley of the Auas Mountains.
Windhoek, home to approximately 350,000 people, is the largest city in Namibia and serves as the gateway to the country’s diverse destinations. The city offers a unique blend of modern and traditional cultures, reflected in its architecture, cuisine, and vibrant atmosphere.
Due to its central location, Windhoek provides the perfect starting point for your Namibian adventure.
Overnight: Avani Hotel
Sossusvlei
After an early breakfast, we travel southwest through open grass plains and dramatic mountain ranges into the Namib Desert, the oldest desert in the world. Influenced by the cold Benguela Current, this arid landscape surprisingly supports a variety of life.
We arrive in the Sossusvlei region, home to some of the highest sand dunes on earth. These iconic dunes, ranging in colour from pale apricot to deep red, contrast beautifully with the stark white clay pans below, creating one of Namibia’s most photographed landscapes.
Overnight: Namib Desert Lodge
Swakopmund
Travelling via the striking Kuiseb Moon Valley, we head toward the Atlantic coast. In Walvis Bay, we visit the lagoon—one of the most important wetland areas in Africa, rich in birdlife.
We then continue to Swakopmund, Namibia’s coastal gem, nestled between the desert and the ocean. Known as the country’s adventure capital, the town offers a perfect mix of relaxation and activity.
With its charming German colonial architecture, seaside promenades, and cafés, Swakopmund invites you to explore at your own pace—whether enjoying fresh pastries, ocean views, or optional adventure activities.
Overnight: Swakopmund Guesthouse
Damaraland
After breakfast, we travel inland past the majestic Brandberg Mountain, Namibia’s highest peak, into the rugged and geologically diverse region of Damaraland.
This sparsely populated area is home to unique desert-adapted wildlife, including elephants and black rhinos. Along the way, we explore remarkable natural attractions such as Twyfelfontein, Burnt Mountain, the Organ Pipes, and the Petrified Forest, each showcasing the region’s fascinating geological history.
Overnight: Damara Mopane Lodge
Kaokoland (Opuwo)
Today we journey further north into the remote and unspoilt region of Kaokoland, travelling through dry riverbeds and open acacia plains.
We arrive in Opuwo, the gateway to the Kaokoveld. This region is home to the Himba people, one of Namibia’s last semi-nomadic communities, known for preserving their traditional lifestyle and cultural identity.
Your lodge offers panoramic 360-degree views over the surrounding landscapes, providing a truly immersive and authentic experience.
Overnight: Opuwo Country Lodge
Epupa Falls (Kaokoland)
After breakfast, we continue deeper into Kaokoland toward the spectacular Epupa Falls. Along the way, you may encounter wildlife such as springbok, kudu, and ostrich, as well as towering baobab trees.
Epupa Falls is a breathtaking natural wonder where the Kunene River cascades into a 35-metre gorge, creating a lush oasis in an otherwise arid environment.
Enjoy leisure time exploring the falls, taking photographs—especially during sunrise and sunset—or participating in optional activities such as guided walks, birdwatching, or canoeing.
Overnight: Epupa Camp
Ruacana
We travel northwest along the Angolan border to Ruacana, a town set on the banks of the Kunene River. This region offers a rich cultural experience, with influences from the surrounding Omusati, Oshana, Ohangwena, and Oshikoto regions.
Nearby Ruacana Falls and the surrounding landscapes provide a peaceful and scenic setting. The lodge offers a relaxing retreat with opportunities to experience the traditions and lifestyle of northern Namibia.
Overnight: Ruacana Eha Lodge
Etosha National Park
We head south to the world-famous Etosha National Park, a vast wilderness of over 22,000 km². The park is centred around the striking Etosha Pan, a shimmering salt desert surrounded by waterholes that attract an abundance of wildlife.
Expect incredible game viewing opportunities, including elephants, lions, rhinos, giraffes, and numerous antelope species. Each waterhole offers a unique experience, making every game drive exciting and unpredictable.

The area offers a unique combination of natural beauty, wildlife, and historical significance.
