Suggested Routes

 

A self drive safari should be just that, allowing you the freedom to explore and enjoy at your own will. However, it is often a good idea to have a general idea of the route you want to be taking, so you can plan accommodation, food, water requirements and fuel.

We suggest Windhoek as a great base and starting point to your journey, however this is not a necessity. From here there are a number of great places to make your way towards depending on your availability of time. As Windhoek is our starting point, let’s take a look at some major destinations as well as some rough time estimates to get there:

• Swakopmund- 360kms (about 4,5 hours)
• Sossuslvlei- 405kms (about 5 hours)
• Fish River Canyon- 750 km’s (about 9 hours)
• Etosha National Park- 420 km’s (about 5.45 hours)
• South African border (to Cape Town)- 795 km’s (about 10 hours)
