Windhoek to Etosha – Transfer & Afternoon Game Drive
Your private driver-guide will collect you in the morning from your Windhoek hotel or the airport. Settle into a comfortable air-conditioned vehicle and enjoy a scenic 5–6 hour drive north, passing through Namibia’s diverse landscapes and rural towns.

Upon arrival at Okaukuejo Camp, you’ll check in to your chalet accommodation and have time to relax before your first afternoon game drive in Etosha National Park. Keep your camera ready as you search for giraffes, elephants, zebras, and predators like lions and cheetahs. After the drive, return to camp for a hearty dinner at the camp restaurant and a chance to unwind by the legendary floodlit waterhole, where rhinos and other wildlife often make an appearance at night.
