Kaokoland

Luxury Kaokoland Safari Vacations & Tours made for you

Discovering remote Kaokoland's wildlife and culture

One of Africa's last true wildernesses and home to the Himba

Covering the north west swathe of the Kunene Region right up to the Kunene River and the northern border of Angola, lies one of Africa’s last true wildernesses where the land offers a truly adventurous escape.

Enjoy guided driving tours in Koakoland, take scenic flights over the Marienfluss valley, or head out on safari to see desert elephants, lions, leopards, cheetahs, as well as the more common game of zebras, giraffes and antelopes. In the north, one of the natural highlights of this beautiful region is Epupa Falls, on the Angolan border.  Beyond the natural beauty, taking time to visit Puros villages gives you the opportunity to meet with members of the Himba and Herero communities, learning about their cultures and traditions in a meaningful and considerate way.

As one of Namibia’s most remote and inaccessible areas which itself goes hand in hand with its adventurous allure, many of the roads in this region are in poor condition so travelling by light aircraft as part of a wider flying safari or reaching the handful of the region’s sophisticated lodges, is the only way to explore the area to the full.
