NAMIBIA WILDLIFE AND WILD HORSE
PHOTOGRAPHY ADVENTURE
NOVEMBER 15-30, 2021 (open to 6 people)
This trip includes, Etosha Wildlife Park, The Skeleton Coast,
Sossuvlei Dunes, Ghost Towns and the iconic Namib Horses.

                 Our local guide is the incomparable Dr. Telane
                 Greyling, zoologist, rider, and expert on the
                 Namib horses. Her vast knowledge in this area
                 comes from a lifetime of studying the horses and
                 other wildlife, as well as being a partner in Namib
                 Horse Safaris. She is our driver and guide for the
                 entire trip as we travel in a luxury 4x4 stretch
                 vehicle.

Day 1) Arrive in the capital city of Windhoek and short transfer to
Moonraker Adventure camp for one night’s stay. The camp has a
variety of domestic animals as well as game species like eland,
wildebeest, oryx, impala etc.
Day 2) Drive 5 hours to Etosha National Park and have an
afternoon shoot at the water hole. Etosha is world renowned for
its elephant population and we will also expect to see rhino, zebra
and many other game species here.

Day 3 and 4 will also be spent at
                              Etosha National Park. Etosha
                              means “great white place” in the
                              Ovambo language and refers to the
                              ancient salt pans which dominate
                              the area. These vast pans and
                              savanna are traveled constantly by
                              wildlife coming and going from
                              grazing to water holes.
                             Day 5) Sunrise drive through
                             Etosha and then proceeding on to

                             arriving at Swakopmund on the
Atlantic coast. Swakopmund is described as a ‘surreal remnant of
Colonial times.

via Kuiseb Canyon to lunch at Soliter (4 hours) arrive early
afternoon at Dune Star Camp on the dunes of the Namib Sand
Sea. Sunset on dunes or at petrified dune cliffs. Here we can

over dunes in the
morning and then drive
to Klein Aus Vista (5
hours) where we will stay
for 3 nights.

Day 11) Garub Station & area tour of the wild horse range and
water hole where we will photograph the Namib Horses. The
Namib horses date back to the First World War when the South
African Army camp was bombed by German planes. Thousands
of horses at the camp were lost into the desert and evolved to

survive the harsh climate. Their range is restricted by the only
source of water at the old Garub train station which sees a
constant flow of wildlife including ostrich, oryx and of course, the
beautiful horses.

Day 12) Photography of Wild Horses and other wildlife

town reclaimed by the sand. Mid-day flight from there back to
Windhoek.
