Sebastian was a fantastic guide and host.
We were snug in our sleeping bags, on the camp beds, staring in awe at the Milky Way, luckily the moon wasn't out."

"Hoodia Sossusvlei excursion review"
9 May 2024 • All-day excursion
The huge dunes are very impressive and Deadvlei, is a photographers dream (wear oranges or bright red to make your photos really pop).
Very nice lunch and chat with Lucas our guide, then a visit to Sesriem Canyon, which is not far away but quite modest.

Etendeka Mountain Camp
"Etendeka Mountain Camp review"
We had two nights and it takes a 1.5hour rough drive from where you leave your vehicle to the camp, the activities were a short attractive walk in the morning, followed by a 5 hour break, then a sunset drive for 4hours."
