2 nights at Desert Rhino Camp (full board & activities) | Damaraland, Namibia
Set off on your fly-in adventure with a light aircraft flight to the Palmwag Reserve in northern Damaraland. Thanks to the continuous dedication of Save the Rhino Trust, this unique wilderness area is home to the largest concentration of black rhino anywhere outside of a national park. The semi-arid terrain is striking. Vast basalt strewn plains and mountain plateaus are intersected by ephemeral river valleys. A surprising amount of wildlife is found here, if you know where to look. Your local guide will take you on 4WD excursions to search for game, particularly black rhino which you may also track on foot. Return to your tented accommodation each night at the wonderfully remote Desert Rhino Camp.Days 5-6
2 nights at Ongava Lodge (full board & activities) | Etosha National Park, Namibia
Fly east to the southern boundary of Namibia's premier game reserve, Etosha National Park. You stay two nights inside the private Ongava Game Reserve which borders onto Etosha, spending your days on game drives in both wildlife areas. Explore Etosha's network of roads and waterholes in the mornings and enjoy further game viewing on the Ongava Reserve in the afternoons. From the comfort of your lodge you can also watch animals come in to drink at the floodlit waterhole that lies below your elevated vantage point at Ongava Lodge.Days 7-8

Today you travel by road through Etosha National Park in an open 4WD vehicle.
