We make it possible for you to meet the proud, nomadic tribe of the Ovahimba. This extended
version of our "Skeleton Coast" flight will take you to Opuwo, the capital of the Kaokoland. An
excursion to the Himba villages adds exotic flavour to any Namibian holiday.
&
The northern coastline fascinates with its desolation, ample bird life, remains of
shipwrecks and one of the largest seal colonies in the world. Return via the rugged
Damaraland, the massive Brandberg and the picturesque Spitzkoppe to Swakopmund.
This variation to the flight as described above includes a stop-over at a guest lodge in the
Damaraland with a game drive. After lunch you will continue your flight back to
Swakopmund.<
If time is short and you do not want to miss out on the opportunity to see the area from
the air, we recommend the shortened version of the "Sossusvlei " route.
Fly via the moon landscape, the Kuiseb river bed and the fabulous dune formations to
Conception
Bay.
Only flying gives you the opportunity to see the shipwrecks, seal
colonies
and
flamingos
in
the

area.
This most popular flight takes you over the Namib desert, the dry
Kuiseb river bed on to the magnificent dune formations, as far as
Sossusvlei. Return along the "Forbidden Coast" where you will
discover shipwrecks, seal colonies and flocks of flamingos.
We can land at Sesriem where we drive in a 4x4 vehicle to Sossusvlei. Admire, climb and photograph the scenery
and enjoy a fresh picnic in the shade of a camelthorn tree. When you are ready, we return to the landing strip
and continue with the flight described above.
Set in the red dunes of the dramatic Kalahari desert, enjoy the most emotional cultural
experience in Namibia. Become a part of the total harmony of this unique Bushman
community
and
understand

After lunch you can compare the Kalahari dunes with those of the Sossusvlei and discover
the "Forbidden Coast".
Should you wish to explore the southern parts of Namibia, then embark on a journey to
the wonders of this beautiful area. Fly via Sossusvlei with its magnficent dune formations
to the Fish River Canyon, the second largest canyon in the world. You will stop in Lderitz
to visit the ghost town of Kolmanskop, where diamond diggers used to live in splendour.
Then explore the town itself and after a light meal, fly along Namibia's "Forbidden Coast"
back to Swakopmund.
This shortened version of the Ultimate South route excludes the flight over the canyon,
but includes a fly-by past the stunning rock arch "Bogenfels". Your activities in Lderitz
and the return flight remain as above.

good flying position after qualifying. The reason for this is of course due to the lack of
