Namibia Flying Safari
overview

Given the size of Namibia, often the best way to cover maximum distance is by plane. Gaze down at Namibia’s mesmerising scenery; it’s only from the air that you can really appreciate the mind-boggling vastness of the landscape below.

Namibia is awe-inspiringly impressive from all angles, but if we had to choose one way to marvel at the magnificent landscapes, it would be from up high.

For six nights, you’ll swap four wheels for two wings and travel across Namibia on a series of short flights.

During the initial two nights of your airborne safari adventure, you will find yourself at the captivating Kwessi Dunes. From there, you'll gracefully soar over the expansive Namib Desert, treating your eyes to the majestic spectacle of the towering dunes of Sossusvlei below. A brief touchdown awaits for a delightful beachside lunch in Swakopmund, before taking to the skies once more. This time, prepare for an awe-inspiring flight above the enchanting Skeleton Coast, followed by an inward journey to the inviting Hoanib Valley Camp, where you'll spend the next two nights.

All that’s left to do is sit back, relax and enjoy the scenery sweeping below you.

Leaving the aircraft temporarily behind, you'll embark on a remarkable overland journey to the renowned Shipwreck Lodge on the evocative Skeleton Coast, where you'll reside for an additional two nights of unforgettable experiences. Then, rejoining the aircraft, you'll partake in a final flight across the heartland of the country, culminating in your arrival at Windhoek.

Activity

Climb the blood-red sand dunes at Sossusvlei and sleep under the desert stars at night.
