Freddy and Olivia Route
Granite, Atlantic air and a few days deep in the desert. This route brings together the active side of Namibia and the kind of places we enjoy settling into afterwards.
Built around the things we enjoy
Start with time among the granite at Spitzkoppe, continue to Swakopmund for the coast and your choice of adventure, then give the Namib several nights. The point is to enjoy each chapter rather than keep packing for the next.
Choose your own level of adventure
Climbing and skydiving are possibilities, not obligations. Tell us about your experience and what you would like to try. Specialist operators confirm suitability, equipment and conditions; a quieter day can be just as much a part of the route.
A mix of places to stay
A simple camp can make sense beside a landscape you want to wake up in. A comfortable lodge can be especially welcome after an active stretch. We’ll choose the balance with you, including the details that matter most after a long day outside.
