TOP TIPS FOR SELF-DRIVE SAFARI IN ETOSHA 🐘 PART 2 🔖 • Go during the dry season when most of the animals are gathering by the waterholes which gives you the unique opportunity to witness incredible moments, moments that will take your breath away. September and October are the best months for game viewing 💦🦒 • Best time of the day for observing wildlife and having the biggest probability to spot big kitties in action is in the morning - the earlier the better. Thanks to the cooler temperatures, lions, cheetahs and leopards are still awake, hunting or eating their prey of last night’s chase 🐆🦁 • Learn more about the warning signs in animal behaviour. The most dangerous wildlife encounter that could damage your vehicle and yourself are elephants and the rhinos. Don’t freak out though - this is a very rare occurence, but it might happen if you get into their comfort zone 🐘🦏🦛 • Needless to say, keep a safe distance from the animals; turn off the engine while watching and taking pictures of them; do not feed them. • Safari dress code: dress in layers - remember the mornings and evenings are chilly, but the days are hot. Don’t forget to wear the shades of the African bush - earthy tones such as browns, khaki, and greens 🥾🕶️👒 ✨ Follow @izabel.philippa for more wanderlust inspo, travel tips and beautiful hotels ✨ 📍Etosha National Park, Namibia 🇳🇦 🚗 @advancedcarhire • • • #etosha #etoshanationalpark #wildlifeonearth #safariphotography #safari #safarilife #selfdrivesafari #gamedrive #gameviewing #namibia #namibiatravel #namibiaroadtrip #travelnamibia #namibiaphotography #namibie #africa #naturephotography #travelphotography #beautifuldestinations #bucketlisters #bucketlistadventures #bucketlisttravel #mustdotravels #earthpix #natgeowild #earthfocus

TOP TIPS FOR SELF-DRIVE SAFARI IN ETOSHA 🐘 PART 3 🔖 • Ideally spend 3-4 days in Etosha to cover different areas as the park is giant and this will allow you to increase your chances of seeing all desired/rare animals 🦁 • Gates opening hours: Sunrise – Sunset. It’s not allowed to drive in the park before sunrise and after sunset 🛖🌄 • Entrance/Permit Fees have to be paid at the gate and may differ depending on the vehicle, nationality (locals/foreigners) and age. We paid 1080 NAD for 3 days/2 adults 🎫 • Due to poaching incidents, when entering the park you will be requested to show an identification document – a passport, ID or a driving license. When leaving the park you will have to open the trunk of the vehicle 🪪⛔️ ✨ Follow @izabel.philippa for more wanderlust inspo, travel tips and beautiful hotels ✨ 📍Etosha National Park, Namibia 🇳🇦 🚗 @advancedcarhire • • • #etosha #etoshanationalpark #safariphotography #safarilife #nwrinsta #zebras #safaripark #safariafrica #reelitfeelit #gamedrive #africa #namibia #namibiatourism #travelnamibia #voyaged #wildlife #wildlifephotography #wildlifephotography #wildlifeconservation #wildlifeplanet #outdooradventures #wildlifeaddicts #travelreels

📍Sossusvlei, Namibia There are still places in the world that feel quiet and untouched. If you want to spend time away from it all, Sossusvlei is your destination. As a seasoned solo traveler there are very few places I recommend a guide for, but this is one of them! A few things to know about this area of Namib-Naukluft National Park: 💡If you’ve never driven in sand before, hire a guide. I’ve never seen so many 4x4s stuck on the road, and it takes a lot of time and money to pull them out. 💡The gates open at sunrise every day, but if you stay inside the park you can get early access to the best sunrise locations. 💡The dunes are a dull orange during the day, but for a sliver of sunrise and sunset they’re absolutely on fire. . . 👉🏼 Follow @sarahwoodardnyc for more incredible locations around the world . ⬇️ Save this post to plan your trip to Namibia later . . . . . . . . #sossusvlei #deadvlei #namibia #visitnamibia #offthebeatenpath #offthebeatentrack #adventurevisuals #adventureawaitsyou #adventuredaily #worldnomads #alifealive #awakethesoul #awakenthesoul #passionpassport #voyaged #discoverearth #wondermore #wildernessculture #mustdotravels
