Indulging in luxury safaris in Namibia, there are moments when the landscape truly takes your breath away: along the mystical and haunting Skeleton Coast; overlooking the vast and wild Fish River Canyon; amongst the roaring sand dunes of Sossusvlei.

Why travel to Namibia

There are places where the peace is so deep and the colours so astonishing that the only response can be silence. In our opinion, one of the best ways to see this spectacular country is from the air – whether on a bespoke flying safari over several days, or a scenic flight from one desert camp to another this is by far the best way to experience Namibia’s otherworldy scenery.
Safari holidays in Namibia are high on intrepid travellers’ wish lists. But Namibia is more than just safaris: the rocks of the central plateau are a blueprint for evolution; the Himba tribes provide an insight into some of the world’s last nomadic peoples, and the desert of Damaraland gives a glimpse of some of the strangest wildlife adaptations on Earth.
Working with a luxury travel planner in Namibia means you’ll have a tailor-made itinerary and exceptional experiences crafted around the must-see destination as well as the hidden spots that are only known to the locals.

What our clients say

So much made this experience great. It was the holiday of a lifetime and we wouldn't have known how to choose the different elements without the expertise of Cazenove and Loyd. Every last detail was thought about, and we were treated especially well because our various African hosts enjoy working with Cazenove and Loyd. Not cheap but worth every penny!

What our clients say

I would recommend this package unconditionally. The itinerary Claire planned was perfect. The lodges were all outstanding in comfort and service. Our Ultimate guide was superb - extremely knowledgeable in all areas, excellent driver and a pleasure to be with for 10 days. We were obliged to cancel our tour last year; Claire rebooked everything for this year, avoiding cancellation fees.

What our clients say

Very professional and helpful. Organized everything and Helen kept me informed each and every time there was a change or just to check in on me and my family.
