Day 7
Time to visit the Oldest Desert in the World…
Ground yourself with your bare feet as we flow this morning in the Namib Desert overlooking the Atlantic Ocean.
After breakfast, we will make our way down south to Sossusvlei, undoubtedly Namibia's most iconic landscape, located in the Namib-Naukluft National Park. The Namib Desert is the oldest desert in the world and stretches over 1500km with dunes reaching heights of 300m. The drive is around 5 hours and we will stop at the Tropic of Capricorn, take some photos and have a little picnic before continuing.
Settle into Desert Quiver Camp and take some time to relax at the pool before our sunset yoga flow that will allow you to reflect, breathe and simply take in the peacefulness of all that surrounds you.
Dinner will be at Sossusvlei Lodge – a memorable experience as chefs prepare exquisite food while having magnificent views of the floodlit waterhole.
Day 8
Early departure to Deadvlei as the gate to the Park opens at sunrise. We will spend most of the day in the dunes exploring the area. After a light picnic breakfast in the desert, and if you are up for it, climb Big Daddy, one of the highest dunes in the world. Returning from your adventurous excursion you will have some time to sit and enjoy a lunch, which is well earned after the morning out in the desert.
“The area is simply breath-taking and no words or photographs can really do it justice. At sunrise and sunset, the light highlights the dunes and brings to life the multitude of colors which give it depth and dimension.”
Spend the afternoon relaxing or if you simply can’t get enough of what this area has to offer, head off again on an afternoon activity.
An hour before sunset we will meet with our guide for an afternoon sunset nature drive and a short meditation walk on this magical land, before our private outdoor bush dinner in the Desert.
