Namibia's Northern Highlights

During your stay at Onguma Tented Camp, you will visit one of Namibia's greatest treasures, Etosha National Park. The 22 750km² wildlife and nature reserve is home to 114 mammals, including lions, leopards, elephants and endangered black and white rhinos. Guided experts will take you out on a game drive through the park where you'll have the opportunity to spot some of the world's most elusive animals whilst learning about the park's diverse ecology. 

Expert guides will accompany you on your exciting adventures around the Kunene River where you'll undertake a number of activities such as day and night drives, hiking, elephant and rhino tracking and if you're lucky, crocodile spotting! One of the most incredible experiences on offer is the opportunity to visit the spectacular villages of the Himba tribe, a traditional semi-nomadic tribe that routinely travels the area with their livestock. Your visit will be arranged by native Himba guides who will mediate interactions with the tribe, allowing you to experience an authentic encounter while learning about the tribes' unique way of life. 

Recognised as one of the most remote and pristine areas in Namibia, the vast landscape of Kaokoland possesses diverse attributes with rugged mountains, gigantic sand dunes, dry river beds and large swathes of desert. During your stay at the camp, you'll venture out into the Hoanib Valley region of Kaokoland on dedicated game drives through the sandy landscape where you'll find adapted, desert-dwelling elephants, giraffes, lions, rhinos, mountain zebras and oryxs. Guests can also explore the region on foot, with guided nature walks showcasing the regions smaller flora and fauna. 

The raw and rugged landscape of the Skeleton Coast has earned the region a reputation of treachery and starkness and even the nickname "The Sands of Death", but this remote slice of Namibia offers much more than what initially meets the eye. Scattered across the coast, you'll find thousands of remnants of wrecked ships and skeletal remains of animals, but also dozens of species of desert flora that have found a way to adapt to the harsh conditions. An incredible land where some life forms can't survive, while others thrive, your journey into the Skeleton Coast is one experienced by few. 

Namibia's largest coastal city, Swakopmund is a must-see along the way of your Namibian adventure! Once acting as the main harbour for Germany during its colonial era, this picturesque city has a rich history that can be observed every where you wander. With plenty of landmarks, a local museum, watersports and sky diving on offer, you'll have plenty of options for fun and exploration during your stay. 

Guided by experts, your journey into Sossusvlei and Deadvlei will entail climbing some of the highest dunes in the world, offering unimaginable views of the incredible surrounding landscape. Contrasted against fiercely red dunes, the salt and clay plains create an unworldly sight that you won't find anywhere else on the globe. 

The NamibRand Nature Reserve is a self-sustaining, non-profit reserve spanning more than 215,000 hectares. Home to a diverse set of incredible landscapes, from colossal red dunes to sprawling gravel plains that blend into the surrounding mountains, the reserve has no shortage of breathtaking sights. During your stay in the region, you will embark on a series of drives around the landscape designed to exhibit the vast wonders of the wilderness. With morning to sundowner drives and even all-day drives, you'll have plenty of time to venture out and discover the unique ecology of the reserve and spot some elusive wildlife.
