Why come here.

Sesriem sits at the entrance to Namib-Naukluft National Park, and is the base most travellers use to reach Sossusvlei — the towering, wind-carved red dunes that are among the tallest in the world.

This is further afield than our usual Zimbabwe/Zambia/Botswana routes, so we arrange it through trusted regional partners rather than running it ourselves. If it's on your list, talk to us and we'll build it into your wider itinerary.

Best time to visit

Cooler months (May to September) for comfortable dune-climbing conditions.

Getting there

Typically flown or self-driven from Windhoek; we help coordinate this leg alongside your Southern Africa itinerary.

Signature experiences

Sunrise at Dune 45, Deadvlei's dead camel-thorn trees, and the Sesriem Canyon.

Good to know

We're still gathering our own photography here — the image above is a representative Southern Africa shot rather than Sesriem itself.
