Immersing oneself in Namibian cultures is a captivating journey into a tapestry of traditions, where the rhythmic beats of the Himba drum circles resonate alongside the profound wisdom of San Bushman practices. Engaging with these vibrant communities offers a unique opportunity to witness the enduring spirit and rich cultural heritage that define Namibia.

Ongava Game Reserve occupies a vast terrain of 30,000 hectares — 74,000 acres — just south of Etosha National Park. In the Ndonga tongue, the evocative word means “a woman who bore a child each year”, a legend that alludes to the gift of seasonal rainfall in a traditionally dry landscape. Visit Ongava, and you’ll soon find that it occupies a space in your heart too.

Etosha was first proclaimed in 1907. The park originally stretched all the way to the Skeleton Coast and, up to 1967, was the world's largest park. In 1967, the park's size was slashed from nearly 10 million hectares to its current size of 2.7 million hectares (about the size of Switzerland).

Etosha is home to 114 species of mammal, 340 bird species, 110 different reptiles, 16 species of amphibian and just one fish species. The park is named after the massive pan that covers 5,000 spuare kilometers. Guests staying at Ongava can experience game drives through Etosha National Park with their guides during their stay.

Spaces of the heart

Inspired by the shapes, shades, and textures of the African savannah, Ongava’s distinctively designed lodges are habitats of the heart and soul.

Each lodge, each room, is furnished and styled with individual flair, bringing the captivating spirit of the bush into your own private space.

But humans are social creatures too, and the open areas of our lodges, overlooking prime game-watching spots, are ideal for dining and unwinding in the very best of company.
