Etosha National Park
Location: Namibia
Total Area: 22,270 sq km
Largest animal population: Elephant
Best time to visit: May and December
Our Etosha National Park tours take you to Namibia’s most famous reserve. Etosha sits in the north of the country. It’s home to over 100 mammal species. More than 340 bird species live here too. Fences protect the wildlife inside the park.
The huge Etosha Pan dominates the landscape. Long ago, a river changed course. This left behind a vast, dry space. Today, you can watch elephants cross the dusty pan. Ostriches and wildebeest cross it too. In wet years, the pan fills with shallow water. This draws flamingos to feed in the shallows.
Etosha ranks among Africa’s top protected areas. Rare desert species thrive here. Look out for the Oryx and Springbok. For a quieter trip, visit Dolomite Camp. This camp only opened to visitors recently. The western plains here have stayed calm for years. Lucky guests might even spot a rare black rhino.
Want to see wildlife after dark? Spend the evening at a waterhole. Nearby camps light these spots softly at night. This makes for great night viewing. Prefer daytime adventure? Join a game drive with a local guide. Explore the park in an open 4×4 for clear views all round. Book one of our Etosha National Park tours. Discover this great reserve for yourself.
Etosha National Park Tours: Wildlife & Waterhole Highlights
Dolomite camp
Dolomite Camp has been opened to a limited amount of visitors. As it was previously restricted, the endless plains of the western side of Etosha have been able to develop without any disturbance from visitors. If you are lucky – you may spot a rare species such as the black rhino.

Spend the evening at a waterhole
Across Etosha, there are waterholes lightly lit by nearby camps. These offer the perfect spot for night-time viewing. These waterholes offer the best opportunities for all types of game sightings.
Game Drive with local ranger
Game drives are the best way to spot wildlife throughout the National Park. Experience the wildlife in a 4×4 safari vehicle with open sides allowing for uninterrupted views. A professional guide will lead you through the park.
