The Namib Desert is the main attraction of the country and the oldest desert in the world, its age is estimated by scientists at 60-80 million years. Stretching for 1600 km. along the coast of the country, the desert amazes with the diversity of its landscapes - brown weathered rocks, numerous canyons of dry rivers, continuously moving huge dunes and vast rubble wastelands interspersed with tiny oases.
In the evening, we recommend looking at the night sky under the guidance of a professional astronomer or trying out your skills in photographing the starry sky.

In the evening, we recommend visiting one of these restaurants and immersing yourself in the history of colonial Namibia.

After lunch, at the request of tourists, additional activities are organized - quad biking on the dunes, kayaking, skydiving, paragliding in the desert, sandboarding, etc. (most activities are recommended to be booked in advance)
Instead of a cruise, we recommend going to the desert in the morning and observing the flora and fauna of these lunar landscapes.

The local landscape is very diverse - from endless dunes to mountain ranges and harsh canyons, the walls of which are richly painted with all the colors of volcanic rocks. The wrecks of ships scattered along the coast testify to the numerous shipwrecks that have occurred on these shores. The northern part of the Skeleton Coast is a concession area open only to tourists arriving on safari by plane. The southern part, between the Ugab and Hoanib rivers, is open to all visitors.

Day 9
Kaokoland is located in the northwestern part of the Kunene region of Namibia. Today, it is the most “untouched” corner of the country (and the most difficult to access). Most of its locations can only be reached by 4WD or even a full-fledged monster truck. But it is worth it. In addition to the amazing nature, Kaokoland is interesting because it is home to one of the most traditional African tribes - the Himba.
Accommodation: Serra Cafema Camp

The incredibly remote and inaccessible village of Puros stands in the middle of a stunning mountain landscape. It takes about 5 hours to get here from Opuwo in the northeast. Puros relatively famous for its bush elephants, which can be found along the river behind the village. This is one of two African elephant species that suffered greatly from poaching in the 1970s, although their numbers have been increasing in recent years. The bush elephants of Kaokoland may look similar to their African cousins, but they behave differently and are of great interest to zoology enthusiasts. Bush lions also live near Puros.

Namibia is a huge patchwork quilt, intricately sewn from giant canvases of national parks. The second largest patch is Etosha National Park. The championship unconditionally belongs to the Namib-Naukluft Reserve. Etosha Park has captured the salt lake of the same name in its exotic embrace and is amazing in every way. The name of this area sounds poetic when translated from the language of the Ovambo tribe: "a large white space" or "a place where nothing grows." And so it is, because most of the year the Etosha Valley is a dull, gloomy space of ordinary cracked white clay and only periodically fantastic mirages appear: herds of wild animals fill the lifeless natural canvas in spots. It takes your breath away if these are the rarest species of animals on the planet: a black rhinoceros or a black-faced impala. Other animals to see include blue wildebeests, mountain and valley zebras, hyenas, lions, cheetahs, leopards, giraffes and elephants.
Accommodation: Onguma Tented Camp
Day 13
Breakfast at the lodge.
Charter flight back to Windhoek and wait for international flight home.
