Day 9: Windhoek/Namib Desert/Sossusvlei
After a brief tour of Namibia’s largest city, we set
out through the central Namib Desert of vast gravel
plains and rocky mountains. Isolated and immense,
tranquil and romantic, this endless expanse offers a
glimpse of a land before time. Late this afternoon we
reach our lodge in the heart of the dune desert. B,L,D
Day 10: Namib Desert/Sossusvlei We rise with
the sun to see the world’s highest crested dunes at
Sossusvlei, their red-orange hues constantly changing in the early morning light. Here we have the
opportunity to climb the velvet-like sand of Big
Mama, as the locals call the largest dune. B,L,D
Day 11: Sossusvlei/Swakopmund We travel
today through the Namib desert en route to
Swakopmund, Namibia’s largest port. B,L,D
Day 12:
Swakopmund/
Walvis Bay/
Skeleton Coast
From Walvis Bay
this morning, we
take a cruise along
the storied Skeleton Coast, so
named for the
whale and seal
bones that once
littered its shores
– debris from the
whaling industry.
Along the way
we’ll see Cape
fur seals and sea
birds, including petrels. We enjoy lunch on board
before disembarking and returning to Swakopmund,
where the remainder of the day is at leisure. B,D

Cape Town today. After time at leisure to explore as we
wish, we dine together tonight at a local restaurant. B,D
Day 14: Cape Town/The Winelands Today we
tour The Winelands, South Africa’s renowned wine-growing region just 45 miles east of Cape Town.
Amidst the beautiful scenery, we visit two wineries
for tours, tastings, and lunch. We return to Cape
Town mid-afternoon; dinner tonight is on our own
in this cosmopolitan city. B,L
Day 15: Cape Town/Cape of Good Hope This
morning we take a panoramic tour of this beautiful
city at the southern tip of Africa and also stop at
stunning Hout Bay. Then we travel to the Cape of
Good Hope Nature Reserve, home to more than 250
species of birds, and where we ride a funicular to the
summit for stupendous views of “the meeting of
the oceans” (the Atlantic and Indian). After a seafood
lunch in historic Simons Town we visit Boulders
Beach to see a colony of enchanting African penguins
up close. Our last stop is acclaimed Kirstenboch
National Botanical Garden, nestled against the
eastern slopes of Table Mountain. The world’s first
such garden founded (in 1913) to preserve native
flora, today the Kirstenboch cultivates only indigenous plants. B,L
Day 16: Cape Town/Robben Island Today we
come face-to-face with an indelible aspect of South
African history: the notorious prison on Robben
Island that once held Nelson Mandela and other
opponents of apartheid. We tour the island and
prison, guided by a former inmate. Returning to Cape
Town, we ride by cable car 3,500 feet to the top of
Table Mountain for glorious views. Tonight we enjoy
a farewell dinner together. B,D
