Etosha National Park

Situated in the northern part of Namibia, Etosha is easily accessible from the capital, Windhoek, with a scenic 5-6 hour drive passing through charming towns and beautiful landscapes, or is an ideal stop after a few days on the Skeleton Coast. 

Once you arrive at the park’s gates, a network of roads and signposts guides you through the park’s interior to its various waterholes and wildlife-viewing areas. 

Etosha’s strategic location and accessible transportation make it a premier safari destination for families looking for an easy hop to a phenomenally game-rich area. 

During the dry months from June to October, an almost inconceivable amount of game can be found around the watering holes of Etosha National Park.

This is because there is less surface water around and the animals stay closer to permanent water sources. During these months the vegetation is thinner and so spotting wildlife is easier.

Etosha can be visited throughout the year. However, during the wetter months wildlife viewing can be less exciting. Animals tend to disperse across greater distances and are harder to find. This is particularly applicable between the months of December and April.
