Day 2:Fish River Canyon

A full day's journey takes you south through the desert-dominated landscapes to a picturesque Quiver Tree Forest near Keetmanshoop. This prehistoric tree reaches skyward with graphically forked branches, their trunks peel and form intricate patterns as the tree matures, these are rewarding subjects to photograph.

Giant's Playground is an impressive jumble of massive boulders, a virtual maze where time can be spent wandering through the extensive rocky labyrinth. Enjoy an optional nature and sundowner drive. Overnight in Canon Village. Breakfast is included.

Day 4:Central Namib Desert

Travel to the famous ghost town of Kolmanskop during your Namibia tour. In 1908 a railway worker found a sparkling stone amongst the sand he was shovelling away from the railway line.

This resulted in a Diamond Rush, as it soon became a bustling little centre with all the amenities of a European town. Within a span of 50 years, Kolmanskop had lived, flourished and died! Heading inland you will proceed via the pro-Namib to your overnight establishment, Hammerstein Lodge. Breakfast is included.
