Today marked the last day of our Namibia vacation. And what a journey it has been! Rather than writing about our long drive from the Waterberg campsite back to Windhoek and the airport, let me share some of my favorite shots with you.

Today we would have one last adventure ahead of us – a rhino drive at the Waterberg Wilderness Nature Reserve in the early afternoon. We weren’t in any rush to start our day, so we took our time preparing breakfast. We sat down, sipping coffee and enjoying a leisurely morning. […]

On the 12th morning, we were awoken by odd calls coming from the bushes just outside our roof tent. Peering through the flyscreen, we spotted a pair of Grey Go-Away-Birds (Crinifer concolor), truly living up to their name. Feeling somewhat unwelcome, we quickly got ready for a long day of […]

Today was our final day in Etosha, today we should find out that it was a wise decision getting our ignition fixed a few days earlier… Having already seen three of the “Big Five” (lions, African elephants, and black rhinoceros), we were hoping to spot a leopard. As for the […]

Another day, another adventure was ahead of us! Without wasting time, we left Halali early to continue our journey through Etosha National Park. I’ll keep it short today – let me just share some of the highlights from that day with you! After spending several hours driving around Etosha, watching […]

Day 8 marked the long-awaited arrival at the renowned Etosha National Park. We were, of course, thrilled to finally embark on a true African Safari at our own pace. However, over the past few days, we’d noticed some issues with the car’s ignition – it was becoming increasingly difficult to […]

As the sun rose behind our tent on day 7, we woke up at the Three Elephants Campsite in Omandumba. Today marked the halfway point of our journey – how quickly time flies when adventure awaits at every turn! We began the day with a leisurely breakfast while observing the […]

Our sixth day in Namibia started after a restless night – sleep had been nearly impossible due to the oppressive heat, with no breeze to cool the tent. Thankfully, we woke up before dawn and stepped outside to witness a breathtaking sunrise through a natural stone arch close to our […]

Well rested after a good nights sleep in the Stiltz hotel, we awoke excited for today’s “Little Five” desert tour. Similar to the “Big Five” (Lion, Elephant, Rhino, Leopard, and African Buffalo), the “Little Five” are their smaller, yet equally fascinating counterparts inhabiting the Namibian deserts and savannahs. Spotting these […]
