Today we will gather at 12:00 at the airport in Windhoek. Here we will be ready with the driver and the adventure can begin. The drive to our first accommodation is a beautiful route of about 3 to 4 hours. We dine at the accommodation under a warm blanket overlooking the twinkling stars. This first night you have the opportunity to spend the night under the stars. You will receive details of this after registration.

Sand dunes as high as 300 meters fill the vista of this region. Many birds fly in this region and you will find beautiful plants and reptiles that are also very photogenic. We travel within this region today about an hour further for the next accommodation within Sossusvlei where we stay for the next two nights. We visit the famous trees in advance so we know where to be tomorrow for the sunrise. The highlights of these days are Sossusvlei, Dead Vlei, Dune 45, Big Daddy, Elim Dune and the Sesriem Canyon. Plenty of opportunities for great photos!

Today we leave Sossusvlei and drive to Swakopmund and Walvis Bay. We stay here near the coast where we have endless possibilities. They also call this region the Desert City and the Skeleton Coast. Flamingos, sea lions, sand dunes and a lighthouse calling out to be photographed. A drone can also come in handy here during the golden hour over the sand dunes. Did you know that this is Namibia's highest sand dune, Dune 7.

Today we drive to Spitzkoppe. The drive to the next accommodation is between 2 and 3 hours. Once arrived in this region you the Brandberg and Erongo mountain. In this area you can photograph the Spitzkoppe and other mountains from the ground but also between the arches of the rocks. This region they also call the Matterhorn of Africa. In clear weather, this is also a great place to photograph the Milky Way! A bright lens is important then.

The last three days of the trip are dedicated to Wildlife photography. We stay in Etosha National Park where we are close to the wildlife. We are out all day to go on a game drive with the ranger. We pass several drinking waters where you can often spot animals. Here you also have the opportunity to photograph the animals from a hut at eye level by the water. Do be gentle so they do not hear you. This park is home to 114 different species of animals and as many as 340 different species of birds.... Just have the telephoto lens ready!

It's all over again, unfortunately! We have a good six hours back to Windhoek ahead of us. So keep in mind not to book an early return trip because we have a long drive ahead of us. If in doubt, we recommend flying back the next day.
