14 Day Luxury Safari Honeymoon

Sossusvlei

Flights

• Windhoek to Sossusvlei (1 hr 30 min)

Transfers

• Hotel Heinitzburg to Eros Airport (15 min)

You will be transferred to Eros Airport for a light charter flight to Sossusvlei. The lodge is in the arid Namib Desert on the private Kulala Wilderness Reserve. Kulala is the closest private lodge to the world-famous red dunes of Sossusvlei and has an exclusive entrance into the national park.

Reflecting on the magnificent landscape in which Kulala lies, you will be left with everlasting impressions of Namib's vastness, solitude, and tranquility. Sossusvlei is an enormous clay pan flanked by dunes standing starkly against the blue sky. These dunes have developed over millions of years and are continuously transformed by the wind. The 'vlei' or pan only fills after rare heavy rainfalls, transforming it into a spectacular turquoise lake. When looking up at the night sky, it is so bright it almost seems possible to pick a star from the sky.

Activities include a guided morning nature drive to the spectacular dunes of Sossusvlei and a short guided nature walks into the desert. Alternatively, guests may take an optional balloon safari over the enchanting desert. Nature walks, and horseback riding also brings visitors closer to the unique beauty of the desert.

Note

Guests spend two nights at Kulala Desert Lodge, with morning and afternoon nature activities included each day.

Dulini Moya Lodge is built on the banks of the seasonal Mabrak River, not far from the Sand River, one of the two primary watercourses running through the Sabi Sand. It is a small, intimate lodge built in a style that blends well with the surrounding bush. Each room has a private splash pool where you and your loved one can relax while overlooking the riverbed. From here, you will enjoy twice daily game drives in search of the Big Five and wildlife. The frequency and quality of Leopard sightings in the Sabi Sand are among the best of any conservation area in Africa.
