Activities

Game drives Etosha National Park

A 4×4 safari excursion into Namibia’s premier tourist attraction. The diverse vegetation attracts numerous mammals, large and small, ferocious and timid. Each waterhole hosts different wildlife species seasonally.

Game drives Onguma Reserve

A morning tour into Etosha could be followed by an afternoon safari around the reserve. There is plenty to see here including four of the ‘Big 5’, lion, black rhino and leopard.

Night drives

Onguma ReserveSpot-lit drives on the reserve in search of shy and nocturnal creatures are a highlight.

Bush walks

A worthwhile way to experience the peacefulness and atmosphere of the Onguma Reserves wilderness is to participate in an early morning bush walk. Your guide, an experienced armed ranger can identify footprints left by large predators and some of the big herbivores. You need to have a basic level of fitness but the emphasis is on a leisurely activity, learning about the inhabitants of the bush on the way round.

Rhino research drives

Even though this late afternoon activity is designed to reveal Onguma’s research projects and conservation efforts in Namibia, data collection and tracking black rhino is also included.

Onguma The Fort Reviews

“We stayed for three nights in Onguma the Fort in October 2014 as a treat at the end of our Namibia trip. And Onguma did not disappoint. The welcome, the Fort itself, the Service provided by well-trained and very polite and warm staff, the Food, the Restaurant terrace and the Bungalow itself provided us with a luxurious yet Close-to nature experience. We enjoyed dinner on the terrace every night with the local Lion/lioness couple or an elephant providing the extra edge at the waterhole in front of the Fort. The Food was excellent, the Service impeccable. The room was extraodinary and with its openness provided an extra kick at night with the Lion roaring while hunting around the Bungalows.  The space, the cleanliness and the amenities in the rooms left nothing to wish for. We will return and highly recommend the Fort. ” –Patrick B

“An oasis on the edge of Etosha, this lodge provides sumptuous surrounding in which to take in the breath-taking views of the pans. The main lodge is breathtakingly beautiful, with lots of space to relax and unwind. pools of water ease the midday heat and you can spend an entire day just absorbing the ambiance of the stunning building. the fact that animals come and go at regular intervals to the waterhole in front of the lodge is an added bonus. meals were great, sufficient and varied. rooms are fantastic and you could spend an entire day just chilling in your private space. we had NO issues with hot shows or water at all. staff in the lodge are professional; Krisitina and her team just make things happen. the fact that activities are not included was a bonus for us as you don’t feel that you are missing out if you lay in bed and just soak up the view. if you really want to RELAX; this is the place to be! ” –Arthur M

“We had a great time in this magnificent lodge: a completely private room, sitting on our porch at sunrise and watching the animals at the watering hole. The afternoon safari was wonderful and we managed to see the elusive leopard. Good food, great service. “-Marie-Dominique K
