Day 1
You will be collected from your hotel between 08:30 and 09:00, as southwest to the iconic Namib Desert, known to be the world’s oldest desert and an area with one of the most picturesque landscapes in Namibia. We pass through the scenic mountain ranges of Auas and Khomas Hochland on our journey into the desert, and head down from Namibia’s central plateau. We will pass through the breathtaking Spreetshoogte peak pass en route to our final destination of Sesriem. Coming out of the mountains, we reach the vast open plains until we reach the tiny town of Solitaire for tea and some dessert. Here, we can visit the famous McGregor’s bakery for something sweet. We plan to arrive at our lodge in the late afternoon to unwind by the poolside, then have a proper introduction to the area with your guide as you watch the beautiful sunset before dinner. We will retire early this evening to prepare for a pre-dawn start the following day. Mid-range lodge located less than 1hr drive from Sossusvlei (Sand Dunes) Dinner (Breakfast & lunch not included) Drinking water (Other drinks not included)
Day 2
We will enjoy a lovely, early breakfast before heading out to the famous Sossusvlei sand dunes, renowned for their size and age. We drive out to our final destinations, areas known as Sossusvlei and Deadvlei, which is a white dry clay pan. We enjoy a nature hike/walk to Deadvlei. Our cameras will naturally take center stage as this landscape is one of the most photographed spaces in Namibia. The views of the different dune formations are quite spectacular coupled with the intriguing camelthorn trees, the salsola and other desert flora. As the desert starts to warm up, we will head to our lodge for some lunch, before heading to the Sesriem canyon in the afternoon for yet another interesting geology tutorial. A long day will come to an end with another lovely dinner, as we enjoy our final night in the desert. Mid-range lodge located in Sesriem (Town) Breakfast & dinner (Lunch not included) Drinking water (Other drinks not included)
Day 3
We have come to the end of our journey today and take the road back to Windhoek after breakfast. Our drive takes us back to the central plateau of Namibia, and an increase in height above sea level. Driving through the stunning Namib-Naukluft Mountains, we arrive at the village of Klein-Aub in the Rehoboth constituency for an exceptional coffee-tasting experience. Here you will have an opportunity to indulge in coffee from a wide selection of African coffee-producing nations. We will transit via the town of Rehoboth and take a brief break there before finally arriving in Windhoek where you will be dropped off at your hotel.

5.0/5The tour operator is a consummate professional. All the arrangements for housing, travel, logistics, etc. were handled with an attention to detail. Because of the care given to the careful planning of the tour, we had no concerns about anything except enjoying the splendid scenery and wildlife of Namibia. A major bonus is that the tour operator is so knowledgable about the history, culture and wildlife of Namibia. It was very enjoyable to experience this tour with him. If you want to have an incredible, mountain-top experience in Namibia, I encourage you to make arrangments with Evolution Travel and Tours.

Very knowledgeable Excellent service. Very personable.
Gina · United States
I had such a good time traveling in Namibia with Scoby and Evolution Travel and Tours. The level of care and knowledge and professionalism he exemplifies is unparalleled. I felt like our tour gave us a rich and honest experience of the land, wildlife, history, and society of the places we visited.
Tia · United States
Good communication leading up to travel and the trip was certainly something that exceeded my expectations! The whole area is stunningly beautiful, and Scobie was a very knowledgeable guide and willing to answer all my questions throughout the journey (I had a lot). Lots of stops on the way to view wildlife and enjoy the landscapes. Climbing Big Daddy early in the morning was certainly a highlight and well worth it! Reuben is an excellent cook, and I was very happy with the camping experience.
