Day 1

Windhoek

Day 2

Windhoek to Etosha

Tonight we’ll head out for a walkabout dinner in Outjo – fuelling up before the big safari day tomorrow.

We’ll wake up bright and early this morning, ready to embark on our first big game drive in Namibia. Prepare yourself for a wildlife experience like nowhere else on Earth.

Tonight we’ll take a sunset walk and then enjoy a buffet dinner back at the lodge.
