Etosha is one of Africa’s great wildlife parks and Namibia’s prime wilderness conservation area. Spanning a vast 22,300 square kilometres (8,610 square miles), it consists mostly of grassy plains around a huge salt pan, which becomes a beautiful lake after heavy rains and attracts large flocks of pink candy-floss-coloured flamingo.
Etosha holds one of the largest, and perhaps the most stable, population of black rhino in the world, as well as giraffe, and rare and unusual species like the black-faced impala, Hartmann’s mountain zebra or the smallest antelope in the world, the Damara dikdik.
Enjoy the Etosha National Park on this 3-4 day adventure tour, explore a haven for wildlife, which supports one of the most important ecological and wildlife systems on the continent. This tour can be booked as a 3 or 4 day tour or as part of a 10 day around Namibia Vacation.
