Three of Namibia’s wildest places by light aircraft: Etosha, Damaraland and Sossusvlei, in five days.
This is the quick way to see the best of Namibia. Light aircraft link Etosha, Damaraland and Sossusvlei, so you spend your days on game drives, walks and dunes instead of on the road.
You meet the black rhinos of Etosha, the desert-adapted elephants of Damaraland, and the red dunes of the Namib, with a night in each of the last two camps.

Prices are per person, in US dollars, and depend on the number of travellers sharing the vehicle and guide. They are sample rates for planning and will be confirmed when you enquire, as lodge and permit prices change each year. The charter flights depend on aircraft availability and will be confirmed when you enquire. Elephant sightings in Damaraland cannot be guaranteed.
Best time for this trip Apr to Nov
Pack light, neutral colours for game drives, a warm fleece for early mornings, a sun hat, good sunscreen and insect repellent. Binoculars are provided in the vehicle, but bring your own if you are a keen birder or photographer. Light aircraft have a soft-bag limit of 15 kg per person including hand luggage, so leave the hard suitcases at home.
