Activities
Marvel at the
world’s oldest desert from a
bird’s viewpoint. We are looking forward to welcome you on board one of our
Cessna 210s to offer you the experience of a lifetime from above. The
Cessna 210 is our preferred single engine
aircraft as it has an outstanding safety record. The good news about these 6-seaters is that all passengers have their very
own window seat.
Sossusfly is operated by
Bush Bird, a fully licensed
air charter company based in
Swakopmund. Aside from
scenic flights to offer you breathtaking views of beautiful
landscapes, we also provide
photographic safaris and
fly-ins, as well as flight services for our
business clients. We
tailor-make routes according to your personal needs and desires. If there is an
airstrip, we can take you there. This aspect allows us access to
remote destinations, making your trip even more memorable.
Some of our set
routes include
Sossusvlei, the most popular
scenic flight that is often regarded as a highlight of many
holiday trips to Namibia. A
Sossusvlei-Swakopmund roundtrip will take up to 2 hours and 10 minutes, covering 600 km of
desert landscape. By car the trip will not only take up a lot of travel time, but the views are also limited. This
flight includes many highlights such as the
Kuiseb Canyon, the seven different types of dunes in
Sossusvlei,
Tsondabvlei and the
Skeleton Coast where many ships have met their demise and can still be seen today.
Discover the diversity of the
country – travel to the north and learn more about the
Himba culture, the nomadic people of
Kaokoland. Whether passing through
Opuwo or by the
Epupa Falls, we pass the
Omaruru dam, the
Messum Crater and
fly over
Brandberg,
Namibia’s highest mountain.
In the south we offer a guided tour of the
ghost town Kolmanskop, after landing in the coastal town of
Lüderitz. The return flight offers the opportunity to view the
Restricted Diamond Area, which remains inaccessible to visitors, and allows sights of the renowned
shipwrecks such as
Eduard Bohlen in
Conception Bay as well as the
Shawnee.
We also head a little more to the south for unforgettable views over the
Fishriver Canyon, the largest in
Africa and second largest in the world.
With great fun comes great responsibility – our high
safety standards and highly
professional pilots will offer you the peace of mind to sit back, relax and enjoy the never-ending views.
