Best of Namibia Circuit – Flying Safari
7 days
Featuring top class accommodations, this flying safari explores several distinct regions: the sands and red dunes of Sossusvlei, the stark plains of Damaraland with their desert adapted elephants and the amazing wildlife abundance on the savannah of Etosha.
Day 1-2. Windhoek to Sossusvlei.
Depart Windhoek International or Eros Airport by light aircraft Sossusvlei Wilderness Camp. Activities centre around early morning excursions in 4x4 vehicles to the magnificent Sossusvlei Dunes and the "vlei" itself. Afternoon activities are enjoyed on the property where guests can spend time taking in the desert scenery with its unique flora & fauna. An optional balloon safari (at extra cost) offers a unique experience soaring silently above the desert before landing for a champagne breakfast. (BLDF)

Day 3-4. Sossusvlei to Damaraland.
Today you will fly from Sossusvlei to Damaraland Camp. This comfortable and friendly camp offers walks and drives in one of the best wilderness areas in Namibia. Damaraland Camp is situated where the rare Desert Elephant roams, alongside Gemsbok (Oryx), Springbok, Ostrich and other hardy desert animals. Rare succulent plants somehow manage to eke out an existence in this harsh countryside. Activities throughout the area are in 4x4 vehicles and on foot as well as mountain bikes. (BLDF)
Damaraland Camp – tented room (2 nights)
Day 5-6. Damaraland to Etosha National Park.
We fly by light aircraft to the Etosha National Park. Highlights are the game drives as well as night drives, nature walks and hides on the private reserve. Lion, elephant, cheetah, gemsbok, springbok and hartebeest can be seen at many of the waterholes in the park. A special encounter is white rhino tracking. (BLDF)
