This short camping safari takes in one of Namibia's true highlights: the Etosha National Park. Measuring over 22,000 square kilometres, and home to hundreds of species, Etosha Game Park is one of Africa's largest and most impressive game parks. This safari can be extended by combining it with either the three day Sossusvlei safari, to give a short Namibian highlights package; or the seven day southern Namibia safari to encompass even more of the highlights of Namibia.

Route/Activities |
1 Etosha National Park |
A long drive this morning, we will travel north passing through farmland and stopping at small towns along the way, we aim to arrive at the main camp in Etosha, Okaukuejo, Etosha in the middle afternoon. After entering Etosha we game drive our way through to the Okaukuejo camp where we will check in and make camp. After your evening meal there are still more chances to see Etosha's big game at Okaukuejo’s floodlit waterhole, situated on the boundary of our camp and easily reachable on foot. Okaukuejo is famous for its waterhole, which has been described as one of the "best game viewing opportunities in Southern Africa". Situated on the doorstep of our camp, black rhino, elephant, lion and numerous species of antelope are usually seen. (550kms) |
2 Etosha National Park |
A full day's game driving today and we leave early to enjoy the cool morning air as we game drive our way through Etosha to Halali camp, situated in the middle of the park. Along the way we visit several waterholes and are afforded splendid views of the massive Etosha Pan. The game viewing is usually excellent and we have the chance to tick off a few new species that are not normally seen on the Okaukuejo side of the park. We stop at Halali camp for a rest and a leisurely lunch and there is time to visit the Halali waterhole and to make use of the swimming pool and bar facilities before continuing on to the eastern side of the park and our camp in the Namutoni region.

3 Windhoek |
A long transit back to Windhoek, we are travelling on the main road, passing through towns and rural areas and we will make time to make a stop in the small town of Okahandja, the home of Namibia’s largest wood carving market. The stalls operated on a local co-operative basis and are one of the best places to shop for truly Namibian souvenirs.
