Experience authentic safaris on our family farm in the heart of Namibia

Numerous native wild animals live on the farm and in the Khomas Highlands, including oryx, kudu, springbok, zebras, wildebeest, giraffes, warthogs and various species of antelope. Depending on the season and time of day, guests may also spot smaller mammals and a wide variety of birds at waterholes and along the driving routes.

A typical safari day usually begins early in the morning with a drive in a 4x4 vehicle, when temperatures are still pleasant and most animals are active. At midday, guests return to the lodge to enjoy a break with meals and relaxation, before heading out again in the late afternoon for more wildlife viewing and a sundowner in the African evening light.

The 4x4 vehicles used are open or semi-open safari vehicles with elevated seats, giving guests a good all-round view for wildlife observation and photography. The vehicles are designed for the partly hilly terrain of the Khomas Highlands and offer comfortable seating, storage space for cameras, and usually blankets or rain ponchos for different weather conditions.

The farm in the Khomas Highlands is located about 1.5 to 2 hours’ drive from Windhoek, depending on the route and road conditions. Guests are usually picked up directly at Windhoek airport and comfortably transported by vehicle to the lodge, so no self-arranged travel is necessary.

Guests stay in comfortable rooms or lodge-style chalets with bathrooms, often with a terrace or a view of the surrounding landscape or a waterhole. Catering generally includes full board with freshly prepared meals combining Namibian cuisine and international dishes, as well as cosy evenings in the lounge or bar area.

In addition to classic game drives, depending on the farm, light guided walks, small-calibre shooting at the shooting range, trips to viewpoints, as well as relaxation at the pool or on the terrace are offered. Some establishments in the Khomas Highlands also offer farm tours, birdwatching or optional day trips to other regions of Namibia.

The Khomas Highlands are considered a quiet and safe region, making safaris very suitable for families and non-hunting companions, as there is plenty of nature, wildlife viewing and relaxation. Reviews highlight that children and partners without hunting interests also greatly enjoy their stay due to the abundance of wildlife, the pool, the scenery and the family atmosphere.

For wildlife viewing, the dry months from around May to October are particularly attractive, as many animals gather at waterholes and the vegetation is lower. In the warm but not too hot winter season, daytime temperatures are pleasant, while mornings and evenings can be cool, so guests should prepare with several layers of clothing.
