Situated just 10km south of the Andersson Gate to Etosha National Park, this haven beckons guests to immerse themselves in the captivating allure of the African Bush.

The Owambo people are calling the Etosha Pan the 'Great White Place' or 'Place of Dry Water'. Unlike its name, however, the 22 912-square-kilometre national park is a place of sanctuary and abundance. We invite you to enjoy a private game drive into the Etosha National Park, accompanied by the Ekipa's specialized guide. 

With a variety of vegetation types, from thorn bush and woodland savannah, stands of makalani palms and the 'phantom' moringa trees to the chalky white pan, Etosha National Park is home to one-hundred-and-fourteen mammal species, including the antisocial black rhino and the endemic black-faced impala. 

Departure: flexible (it is recommended to enter the park at sunrise)
Duration: flexible (5 - 9 hours)
