How long do I need to travel in Namibia?

Asking “how long do I need for travel in Namibia?” is as good as asking “how long is a piece of string”? It all depends on how many days you have available, what you want to include and see and also your mode of transport from destination to destination. Namibia is a vast country and one can come for a few days and just see a few of the main highlights, like Sossusvlei, to see the oldest desert in the world or Etosha National Park, for incredible game viewing, or come for a few weeks and do almost the entire country. Options are limitless but that’s why we are here. We’ll help you navigate the best possible itinerary and route given the time you have available for travel to ensure you have the most amazing experience and get the most out of your holiday and budget.

• By road self-driving or with a private guide, we suggest around two weeks or more, as this would give you the time needed to see the main highlights and include the diversity of Namibia.  Anything shorter would mean rather concentrating on certain areas and specific highlights. In this time frame, you could even look to include some of our neighbouring countries – Botswana and Zimbabwe.
• Flying between destinations means you can included more destinations with less time in transit and you would also be able to include some of the more remote areas.
• Combining driving and flying is always a good option to see more whilst getting the best of both worlds in terms of experience.
