Overview
Sossusvlei Tour is a short three-day trip into the Namib Desert, departing from Windhoek or Swakopmund. It is built for travelers who want to experience Namibia's dramatic desert scenery without a long itinerary.
A full day in the Namib Desert sits at the heart of the trip, leaving time to take in the landscape at an unhurried pace. The journey then returns to Windhoek or Swakopmund.
Accommodations, arrival and departure transfers, local guides, meals per the itinerary, park entrance fees and applicable transportation are included.
