Namibia Family Holidays

In wonderfully wild Namibia, watch as your little ones stare open-mouthed at lions basking in the sun or sea lions flopping in and out of inky blue seas. That’s the moment you know you’ve cracked your family holiday. The best way to navigate Namibia family holidays? Belt up for a road trip and you’re in for the ride of your life with days spent venturing to different spots and evenings spent lingering fireside to hear the nocturnal calls of the wild. There are giant sand dunes to board down and riding through the hinterland; and the Skeleton Coast is a captivating spot for shell-scooping and poking around rocks. And thrilling game drives through Etosha National Park are always on the must-do list with countless wildlife spectacles around every turn.

Namibia Family Holidays Guide

Practical advice and inspiration to help you prepare for your holiday

What can you find on Namibia family holidays that you won't find anywhere else?


Namibia lends itself to road tripping, and we can provide you with a suitable family-friendly 4x4 for you to explore at your own pace, but with all your activities and accommodation booked in advance. It makes for a great combination of freedom and peace of mind, and we can suggest the many highlights to weave together on your trip.

All Namibia family holidays should include visits to the beautifully remote NamibRand desert and Sossusvlei to gawp at and climb the stunning giant sand dunes; the Skeleton Coast to see seal colonies and the bare bones shipwrecks after which the region is named; the ancient rock art created by San Bushmen and the wonderful safari spots of Etosha and Okonjima, famed for its big cat conservation programme.
