Discover Namibia - Camping

Namibia is a fantastic destination for camping. The landscapes are grand and unpopulated, wildlife is widespread plus the campsites are clean and well maintained. We spend eight nights full-service camping and four nights in guesthouses. We sleep in spacious, two-person tents fitted with thick foam mattresses. Properties are either well located for our activities or to break up the long drives that are necessary to explore the highlights of Namibia. Below are some of the places we stay.



Upgrade from camping to a room on Day 7, 8, 9 and 10 of the itinerary – speak to your sales representative for more details. 



Arebbusch Lodge







Our guesthouse in Windhoek is only a 10-minute drive from the city centre yet is spacious with two swimming pools and one of the best pizzerias in the capital. It also has a beautiful garden enlivened with indigenous trees, which provide a habitat for a wealth of birdlife, including black-throated canaries, laughing doves and red-headed finches.



Brandberg White Lady Lodge







Our Brandberg stay is in the middle of nowhere. From the viewpoint at our campsite, you will not see another property, just the ruggedly beautiful landscape of Damaraland and possibly some desert elephants in the distance. There’s a dining area, well-stocked bar, lounge, and two swimming pools.



Camps in
ear Etosha National Park







During our time in Etosha, we spend one night at Namutoni, a government-run camp. It is basic, but has a restaurant, swimming pool and bar, plus a flood-lit waterhole where the wildlife regularly stops to drink. We also spend two nights outside the park in Etosha Safari Camp. This is a quirky property themed on a shebeen, a much-loved informal bar with local colour and bric-a-brac feel.



Worth knowing



Wi-fi is available in several properties but not everywhere, notably it is not available in Sesriem or Etosha.

All camping equipment is provided except for sleeping bags and pillows.

Additional game drives may be available at the Etosha site, which can be booked on arrival for an extra cost.
