Okaukuejo Etosha Safari

Your Okaukuejo Etosha Safari begins in Windhoek, the capital of Namibia, with an early morning departure towards the breathtaking Fish River Canyon. As you arrive, the sheer magnitude of the canyon, the second-largest in the world, unfolds before you. Spend the day exploring the rugged landscape, marveling at the deep ravines, and enjoying panoramic views from various vantage points. You’ll have the chance to take in the unique geological formations and perhaps spot some wildlife that thrives in this arid environment. As the day draws to a close, enjoy a sunset over the canyon, where the interplay of light and shadow creates a mesmerizing spectacle. Overnight, you’ll stay in a nearby lodge, resting up for the adventures ahead.

After breakfast, journey northward to Okaukuejo, the oldest and most popular camp in Etosha National Park. Upon arrival, you’ll have a chance to relax and settle into your accommodation. In the afternoon, embark on your first game drive in Etosha, where you’ll encounter a variety of wildlife, including elephants, lions, and rhinos. The Okaukuejo waterhole, famous for its floodlit viewings, is the perfect spot to witness animals gathering for an evening drink. The waterhole is a hub of activity, offering an unforgettable opportunity to observe the park’s wildlife up close. After a day of exploration, return to your lodge for dinner and an overnight stay.

Begin your day with an early morning game drive, taking advantage of the cooler temperatures when animals are most active. This is your chance to catch a glimpse of predators returning from their nocturnal hunts and herds of herbivores grazing on the open plains. As you traverse the park, keep an eye out for the diverse bird species that also call Etosha home. After the game drive, return to your lodge for breakfast and some leisure time before packing up. In the afternoon, depart from Okaukuejo and make your way back to Windhoek. Upon arrival in Windhoek, you will be transferred to the airport for your departure, marking the end of your Namibian safari adventure.
