Day 1 Arrive in Namibia
On arrival in Windhoek, connect to your shared light aircraft flight east to Sossusvlei, where you will be staying at Kwessi Dunes. The 12-chalet lodge sits on a vast desert plain between the red sands of the NamibRand to the west and the Naukluft Mountain range to the east - providing a dramatic backdrop for your explorations. Each air-conditioned chalet comes with a 'Star Gazer' room; a private area to the back of the chalet where a second bed is made up each evening for guests who'd like to spend a night under the spectacular night sky.
Overnight: Kwessi Dunes

Day 2 NamibRand National Park
Rise early and head into the NamibRand National Park to see the great dunes as the sun rises. Those looking for a better vantage point will find it at the top of Big Daddy, the colossal dune overlooking Deadvlei's petrified trees. Explore other giant dunes on your way back to Kwessi Dunes, where the afternoon brings guided nature walks, quad biking excursions and sundowner drinks.
Overnight: Kwessi Dunes

Day 3 Fly to Etosha National Park
Take your private light aircraft charter north to Etosha National Park and the Onguma Reserve, which sits in a wildlife-rich haven at the park's eastern border. Onguma means 'the place you don't want to leave' in the local Herero language, and the name is apt: the beautiful Onguma Tented Camp features just seven intimate tented suites, each with a spacious private deck, laid out with views of a floodlit waterhole. This delivers prime wildlife watching opportunities with absolutely no exertion required.
Overnight: Onguma Tented Camp

Day 4 - 5 Safari activities from Onguma Tented Camp
The days ahead are spent exploring the Onguma Reserve on guided game drives and bush walks, or heading further afield into the Etosha National Park for a chance to spot over 110 mammal species, including elephant, lion, and white and black rhino. Back at camp, the infinity pool provides a welcome opportunity to cool down between your safari adventures. Days draw to a close with delicious meals prepared by the camp's chef, and drinks around the boma under starlit skies.
