Namibia Adventure 14 Day Self Drive Tour

The adventure continues into Damaraland. Driving around this area is both fun and testing, but it will also allow you the flexibility to search for desert-adapted elephants and other desert-dwelling creatures such as black rhino. Natural monoliths and mountains, prehistoric tree trunks and some organ pipes are also found in this area. Continue on to the Atlantic coastal town of Swakopmund, which will give you a bit of a rest from driving yourself around the countryside. Besides being a welcome break from the often intense inland heat, the combination of old-world charm and coastal adventure offers visitors plenty to see and do here.

You then journey into the Namib Desert. Sossusvlei’s magnificent, mountainous dunes lie at the end of the Tsauchab River. The tallest of them has graced many a photograph or painting as has the ancient camel-thorn trees eerily still lurking around in Deadvlei.

Travelling further on this adventure takes you to Klein Aus Vista Namib where the wild horses graze locally and the breathtaking scenery offers some fantastic photographic opportunities.  Your final night is in the Kalahari Desert, where you have the opportunity to explore the Gondwana Kalahari Park on an afternoon drive to experience the red Kalahari sands, before your tarred road drive back to Windhoek.

Although it is possible to book this self drive tour as shown above, it is entirely customisable. We can add or delete days, change the accommodation used and generally design the tour to suit your individual requirements.

Travelling by road is a great opportunity to appreciate the outstanding landscape & scenery that Namibia has to offer, however it is always important to take things slowly when required and it is not advisable to travel after dark. If you do not like the idea of driving yourself, we can arrange for a Guide to drive you or arrange transport by air.  Contact one of our team to discuss your travel requirements.
