Our all-inclusive tour gives you the chance to sit back, soak up the tranquility of the desert and enjoy delicious meals under the sparkling night sky.
Upon arrival at the airport, you will meet with Across Africa Tours driver and transfer to Avani Resort. The airport is 45 km outside Windhoek, the capital city of Namibia. Later you will join our guide for a free township tour. Dinner will be at own expense at the restaurant of your choice.
We will pick you up from your Hotel or Guesthouse between 7am and 8am and depart at 9am. We travel through the Kalahari Desert, stopping at small towns along the way including Rehoboth, which is a town in central Namibia just north of the Tropic of Capricorn. Located 90 kilometres south of the Namibian capital Windhoek. Rehoboth is traditional home of Baster people. Later in the afternoon we check in the hotel in Keetmanshop and rest for the day.
Our exploration continues with a visit to the Giants Playgrounds, named for how the massive dolerite boulders have been placed on each other – creating rock formations and a series of mazes. We board the truck and travel south on the gravel byways of Southern Namibia on route to Ais-Ais. Famed for its hot springs, the resort and its hot pools are the perfect tonics to ease away the dust of the Namib. The Fish River Canyon is one of the largest in the world, and this afternoon we take a walk along the rim of the canyon and end our day with a memorable sunset on the canyon edge.

Swakopmund is a very pleasant seaside town with lots of shops, a good stretch of beach (although the Atlantic is quite cold
here), and an open-air curio market. There is also a very good museum and the Namibian National Marine Aquarium is located in Swakopmund. Alternatively, there are various optional activities that can be arranged. These include a boat-tour (with oysters and champagne) scenic flights and micro-light flights over the desert, fishing trips (either from the beach or in a boat), quad-bike trips into the desert and over the sand dunes around Swakopmund, sandboarding, skydiving, and many other activities. Your guide will discuss all the possible optional activities with you and offer to make pre-bookings in advance. Overnight at the Hansa Hotel or
