Day 1 - 4, Quiver Tree Forest, Fish River Canyon, Luderitz, Kolmanskop
Southern Namibia is a place of breathtaking natural beauty, and we visit the Quiver Tree forest in search of one of the world's rarest plants, the welwitscha, then then onto world's second largest canyon Fish River Canyon. We also visit the scenic Orange River, Namibia's southern border with South Africa where we camp on the tranquil banks. On the coast is the quirky fishing town of Luderitz, where you have the option to take a boat cruise to visit penguins and dolphins. This afternoon we take a tour of the Kolmanskop Ghost Town, a deserted diamond-mining town that is being slowly swallowed up by the encroaching dunes.

Day 5 - 7, Sossusvlei, Sesriem, Windhoek
Next are the sand dunes of Sesriem and Sossusvlei. As dawn breaks and we drive out to watch the incredible sunrise over the shimmering desert landscape and climb some of the world's highest sand dunes. We also take a short excursion to Sesriem Canyon. We return to Windhoek on day seven to prepare for the next leg of our journey.
