Departure is from Chameleon Guesthouse and Backpackers at 12h00 noon (13h00 in Summer).  Driving via Rehoboth and Naukluft we arrive at our camp late afternoon and have a chance to relax and enjoy the views before taking a short walk for sunset looking over the Naukluft mountain range.   Overnight is based in twin rooms or permanent tents with en-suite bathroom facilities.   Dinner prepared by your guide (Dinner included)


We depart at dawn from camp to arrive at the park gate for sunrise.  We drive down an ancient river bed surrounded by towering dunes to the 2x4 parking (around 55kms) and take a 4x4 shuttle into the Sossusvlei area to appreciate the beauty of this place in early morning light and enjoy the peace and tranquility of the region.  We explore this unique area on foot before heading into Dead Vlei with its large expanse of bleached cracked clay and skeletal camel thorn trees, contrasting with a backdrop of huge dunes with their ever-changing colours.   We can either walk or take the 4x4 shuttle back to our vehicle.  As we drive back to our accommodation we will stop at the famous Dune 45 and climb this dune if we wish or just wander around the base.  We return to Sesriem and visit the nearby Sesriem Canyon, one of the few permanent water sources before arriving back at our lodge late afternoon to watch the sunset over this spectacular desert.  Overnight in twin share rooms or permanent tents with en-suite bathrooms. Dinner prepared by your guide.  (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner included)


After a leisurely breakfast we return to Windhoek via Bullsport and Rehoboth.  We arrive prior to lunchtime where you will be dropped at your accommodation. (Breakfast included)
