Over the Kuiseb River bed and on towards Sesriem and the Sesriem Canyon to the highest shifting sand dunes in the world at Sossusvlei.

From Sossusvlei we fly over the Diamond Restricted Area and cross the coastline where we’ll see colonies of Cape Fur Seals, flocks of flamingos and wrecks of famous ships like the passenger liner ‘Eduard Bohlen’ lying 250 meters from the shore.
