Incredible experience

I had been dreaming of travelling to Namibia for almost a decade, and my Bench safari lived up to even my most wild imaginings. From my incredibly knowledgable local guide Nestor, to the detailed itinerary covering all the highlights and some hidden gems too, to the excellent accommodation choices (Shipwreck Lodge and Hoanib Valley camp were highlights), it was faultless from start to finish. Dreaming of my next Bench trip already.

  • Full Itinerary
    Day 1 - Sesfontein Community Conservancy

    On arrival at Windhoek Airport you will be met by an Ultimate Safaris representative who will transfer you to the local Eros Airport in Windhoek, where you will board your scheduled flight to the Skeleton Coast. (D)

    On arrival at the local airstrip, you will be met by a lodge representative and transferred to Hoanib Valley Camp. Deep in the north-western corner of Namibia, Kaokoland is one of the most remote, wild and marvellously unique areas of the country. It’s a land characterized by rolling dunes, Rocky Mountains and desert plains all crisscrossed by ancient, dry riverbeds, the roads of the area. Temporary Himba settlements dot the landscape, and scattered herds of desert-adapted elephant and giraffe are a common sight.

    If time allows, the afternoon can be spent on a scheduled lodge activity as offered by Hoanib Valley Camp.

    Accommodation: 1 night Hoanib Valley Camp.

    In a country jam-packed with vast, spectacularly beautiful landscapes, Kaokoland may just be the most incredible of them all. Deep in north-western Namibia, the area is a melee of towering mountains, sand dunes, and huge expanses of desert, scattered with unique wildlife and nomadic Himba settlements. It’s also one of Namibia’s most remote and wild environments, and one that not many will get the chance to discover in a lifetime.

    Hoanib Valley’s six guest tents blend almost perfectly into the rugged environment. The colours, textures and patterns are inspired by the experience of the Hoanib; the rich ochre of the dunes, the geometric patterns of the Himba people and, of course, the giraffe that inspired the project.

    Day 2 - Skeleton Coast Concession

    This morning you will enjoy a full day scenic nature drive / transfer as you make your way from Hoanib Valley Camp to Shipwreck Lodge, enjoying a picnic lunch enroute. (BLD)

    After settling into your accommodation at Shipwreck Lodge, you have the option to embark on a scheduled lodge activity as offered by the lodge. Activities on offer are game drives within the northern Skeleton Coast National Park, Sundowner drives to the dune’s fields, 4X4 excursions to the Clay Castles and the Hoanib River Delta and along the coast. Track desert adapted elephants along the Hoarusib River or visits to the Suiderkus and Karimona shipwrecks.

    Day 3 - Skeleton Coast Concession

    Today is filled with exciting guided activities as arranged by the camp and after discussions with your lodge-based guide – these include scenic nature drives within the northern Skeleton Coast National Park, drive along the Hoarusib River and sundowner drive to the dune fields. All of these expose the astonishing desert-adapted wildlife, plants and birdlife of the area. One of the main highlights here, is an excursion to the Möwe Bay seal colony where you will also have the opportunity to visit the remnants of the Suiderkus and Karimona shipwrecks. (BLD)

    Day 4 - Sesfontein Community Conservancy
    Accommodation: 1 night Hoanib Valley Camp.

    Day 5 - End of Natural Selection Skeleton Coast Extension

    This morning you will be transferred back to the local airstrip for your scheduled light aircraft flight back to Windhoek Airport, ensuring that you have sufficient time for the check-in of your on-going international flight back home. (B)
