Namibia Family Adventure

A Namibia adventure designed for the whole family.

From N$27,900 per person sharing

About This Package

Namibia is one of Africa's most family-friendly destinations. The landscapes are dramatic but accessible, the wildlife is safely observed from a vehicle, there's minimal malaria risk in the areas visited, and the experience of Etosha or Sossusvlei genuinely captivates children of all ages in a way few other destinations can.

The Namibia Family Adventure covers the essential highlights in a well-paced 10-day route, with three accommodation tiers to suit different family budgets and preferences. Budget, standard and luxury options are available at each destination, so you choose the level that fits your family.

Accorto Travel coordinates everything — accommodation appropriate for your family size, a 4x4 vehicle large enough for your group, all park fees and a travel pack with day-by-day instructions that make the journey easy to navigate with children in tow.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, Namibia is one of Africa's most family-friendly safari destinations. Self-drive Etosha is safe and exciting for children of all ages. The dunes at Sossusvlei, sea activities at Swakopmund and wildlife of Etosha captivate children. Most areas visited have very low malaria risk.

What ages are suitable?

The package suits children from about 5 years old upwards. Etosha game drives are safe and exciting for all ages. Dune climbing suits children 8 and above. Swakopmund has activities for all ages. Let us know your children's ages and we'll advise on suitable activities.

Is there malaria risk on this route?

The main areas visited — Windhoek, Sossusvlei, Swakopmund, Damaraland and Etosha — are in low-risk or no-risk malaria zones. This makes Namibia significantly more family-friendly than many other African safari destinations. Always consult your doctor before travel.
