On a tight schedule, nothing beats the comfort of air travel: In the blink of an eye you arrive at your destination and enjoy the added value of appreciating the breathtaking landscape from a bird’s perspective. Especially a scenic flight above the Namib Desert’s sand dunes is an experience that will stick with you.

One day, you can glide down the lush, vibrantly green Okavango Delta in a Mokoro and the next day be standing in front of the Namib’s glowing red sand dunes – two completely contrasting experiences which are nevertheless equally beautiful. Another alternative is a trip down to Cape Town, South Africa. A two hour flight from Windhoek will drop you off in the multifaceted, bustling city which is well worth a visit!
