Day 6 Namib Naukluft National Park

Day 9 Himba Tribe
Heading inland again we drive north towards Kamanjab where we will meet with some of the local people of the area. The Himba are easily recognisable by their unique style of dress. Encountering a totally different way of life is a moving experience for many people.
Day 10/11 Etosha National Park
An early rise sees us on our way to Etosha National Park and some of the most unique game viewing experiences in Africa. We spend our days visiting the abundant water holes for some excellent game photography. After our evening meal we relax at some of the finest floodlit waterholes in the world. Occasionally it is not possible to stay inside the park at night, in which case we overnight at a local guest farm.
