…underneath the Southern Cross…
Day 1: Windhoek – NamibRand Nature Reserve
You personal chauffeur guide will meet you at your hotel in Windhoek, from where you will begin a truly fascinating trip. We drive along a panoramic route across the central highlands and follow the steep gradients of the Spreetshoogte Pass down into the vast plains of the oldest desert in the world. Throughout the day we will use many opportunities for photography and appreciation of the inspiring landscapes. Upon arrival at the NamibRand Nature Reserve we will use an open top Land Rover for spectacular scenic drives through a sea of red dunes, set against majestic purple mountain ranges and golden grass savannah. Enjoy the tranquillity of your private Wolwedans Mountain View Suite.
Day 2: NamibRand Nature Reserve
Encroaching from the west are tongues of dunes with colours ranging from yellow-gold and ochre to rose, russet and deep brick red, paling and deepening as the day wanes. The view from your suite will touch your soul. The panoramic drives within the Nature Reserve will have you stunned with amazement. The beauty of the sunset will make you cry with joy. The stars above your head will make you feel small and fragile. The silence of the night will be louder than your thoughts.
Day 3: NamibRand Nature Reserve
A new day with new impressions. We leave Wolwedans in the course of the morning and travel to the most northern end of NamibRand Nature Reserve. Here you will settle in your spacious private stone and glass “Villa” at the renowned Sossusvlei Mountain Lodge. Your own butler will attend to all your needs and spoil you with personal attention and dedicated service. Scenic drives and guided walks through vast gravel plains with your desert guide are a truly memorable experience, so are the culinary delights in a romantic candle light setting to close the day.
Day 4: Sossusvlei
An early rise will enable us to reach the famous highest dunes in the world at Sossusvlei shortly after sunrise. You will find perfect light conditions for stunning photography of the monumentally high dunes and the shadows of their sinuous crests continually changing as the day waxes and wanes. We will walk through the eerie “dead vlei” and enjoy a picnic champagne breakfast under a huge camelthorn tree. After a relaxing “siesta” in your acclimatised suite at the lodge, we will venture into the nearby dunes with all wheel drive quad bikes for another breathtaking view and refreshing sundowners. Before retiring for the night, you may want to gaze at the wonders of the southern skies from the lodge’s sophisticated observatory.
Day 5: Sossusvlei Mountain Lodge - Windhoek

You personal chauffeur guide will meet you at your hotel in Windhoek. We travel along National highways in the superior comfort of a luxurious Audi Q7 SUV via the villages Okahandja and Otjiwarongo to the Ongava Private Game Reserve bordering Etosha National Park. Enjoy the abundant luxury of your suite at “Little Ongava”. Ongava is famous for its rhino population, which the afternoon game drive with an open Landrover will mainly focus on.
Day 2: Etosha / Villa Mushara
A full-day game drive takes us to the eastern border of Etosha National Park. A hundred years after the one-time inland sea began to evolve into a giant sedimentary depression occupying nearly a quarter of the park, the place called Etosha continues to be where “all the menageries in the world turned loose would not compare to the sight I saw that day”, as one of the first European settlers described the wildlife he encountered when traveling across Etosha seemingly endless plains. Enjoy the aura of tranquility and contemplation in your exclusive “Villa Mushara”.
Day 3: Etosha / Villa Mushara
The itinerary is determined by you. Your guide is available for game drives whenever you may want to journey into the neighbouring Etosha National Park. You may however want to enjoy the luxury of your Villa, the privacy of your own plunge pool or a afternoon nap in the “sala”.
Day 4: Mushara – Okonjima Bush Suite
In the morning we have a comfortable 3,5 hour “road cruise” with the luxurious Audi Q7 from Mushara via Tsumeb and Otavi to Okonjima, the home of the Africat Foundation with the world’s largest cheetah and leopard rescue and release programme. Your personal host, chef, guide and game viewing vehicle will make your stay at Okonjima Bush Suite an unforgettable experience!
Day 5: Okonjima Bush Suite
“I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived”. Not only the cat related activities will touch your heart, but also the abundance of luxury, style and beauty of your Bush Suite. You are now closer to paradise than you may have deemed possible.
Day 6: Okonjima – Windhoek
To bid farewell to this place of magic will be difficult. We travel back to Windhoek, deeply impressed with the wonders of nature and the privilege of a great experience carried home in the depth of your heart; a truly satisfying and rich experience. Your chauffeur guide will drop you either at the hotel of your choice or at the airport. Good bye Namibia for now, but you will be back! We know it!
