Company details

Written by the company

We are unique in offering self-drive tourists to Namibia an opportunity to see the rare and magnificent Desert-Adapted Elephants that roam free in our region. Park at our office (just off the junction of the C39 Khorixas to Palmweg road and the D2612 Twyfelfontein road near Farm Bethanis). Our experienced Guides will take you in one of our open sided safari vehicles to find these wonderful creatures. This is a three-hour trip. Costing just 800NAD pp. Our campsite opened in December 2022 so why not stay the night too. The setting is a lovely quiet area, away from the main road and traffic noise and dust, with fabulous clean facilities. The cost pp per night is just 300NAD. See our website for further details: www.desertelephants.com

Not to be missed!

We had 2 excellent experiences with Twyfelfontein Elephant Drives. The first morning we tracked black rhinos with our guide, Star, and a conservation ranger. It is not possible to do this as a self drive. Star and the ranger put in a huge amount of effort, much on foot, to follow tracks and reward us with super views of a mother and calf. We approached on foot to a safe distance. It was a real privilege to see the rhinos, undisturbed, in their natural habit and learn about them from two such knowledgeable guides.
The next morning we set off to track desert adapted elephants and again, the thrill of the tracking was a large part of the experience. Charles found us a family group and we had superb views as they made their way along a dry riverbed and drank from a village water resource before continuing, undisturbed, on their way.
It’s a wonderful experience led by such enthusiastic, knowledgeable guides. Not to be missed!

Amazing experience

Our Desert Elephants tour was simply amazing.
The passion and the knowledge of Charles made us love this experience.
We had the opportunity to observe closely these wonderful creatures and get to know more about their habits always respecting their space.
Highly recommended!
