Namibia – Desert Landscapes & Wildlife Photo Tour 2026

US$8,965 person sharing

Spaces Available 

21 May 2026 – 1 June 2026

ORYX Photo Tours is proud to present a safari tailor-made to visit some of Namibia’s most spectacular photographic areas. A country of startling contrasts our Namibia photography tour kicks off with a visit to the remarkable towering red dunes of Sossusvlei, which must surely rank as one of Namibia’s most iconic landscapes! We then spend time along the coast, where cold fogs roll off the Atlantic Ocean and nourish an incredible diversity of life (considering the inhospitable environment), much of it barely visible to the untrained eye. Heading inland, we spend a night at the impressive Spitzkoppe (landscapes and night shooting), before rounding off our Namibia photo safari focusing on Etosha National Park and surrounds for desert-adapted animals including Black Rhino, Lion and African Elephant.

Astonishing contrasts are everywhere for the visitor to savour, enjoy and photograph, so join us for what promises to be a spectacular photo tour to the African nation of Namibia!

Why this Photo Tour is for You

Destination Allure

The driest nation south of the Sahara, Namibia has a low human population, with huge expanses of the country delightfully wild and unpopulated by people. Our photo tour will place emphasis on its otherworldly landscapes and matchless wildlife photography experiences. It is truly a dream destination for a photo tour.

Wildlife

With a wide variety of unique birds and wildlife that have adapted to survive the harsh conditions here, we visit the world famous Etosha National Park and take advantage of its key water holes and hides for a variety of photographic moments.

Landscapes

With towering ochre-coloured sand dunes, vast deserts, rocky outcrops and blue skies, the iconic landscapes of Sossusvlei, Swakopmund and Spitzkoppe will be no short supply and due to its remoteness, astro-photography is bound to spell bounding!
