InfoChild Policy

Ongava Tented Camp is in the Ongava Game Reserve on the southern border of Etosha National Park. The camp offers luxury tents made of stone, canvas and thatch that blend exceptionally well with the surroundings. The rooms overlook a waterhole where you can watch the wildlife come and go. The camp can host a maximum of 16 guests in 8 tents. Because of its size, it's an exclusive destination for the discerning traveller.

The tents have en-suite bathroom facilities with open-air showers and a private veranda for relaxation. The central area consists of a bar and dining area where guests can kick off their shoes and sit back. There's also an open deck with a campfire overlooking the swimming pool and the waterhole.

Activities at Ongava

Activities around the lodge are offered throughout the day. There are morning and afternoon game drives in Ongava. You can also join a night game drive. The nature walks are very popular at Ongava and the perfect opportunity to explore and learn. During these walks, you can track white rhinos with a qualified guide.

Ongava Tented Camp is unique because it offers an exclusive experience within beautiful and natural surroundings. Because only a few guests can stay here at a time, it ensures a personal experience. You want to stay away from bustling crowds that disturb the wildlife. This is very much a Hemingway-style safari. Inspiring activities at Ongava are nature walks, rhino tracking and night game drives. You can also enjoy drives at the Etosha National Park or inside Ongava Game Reserve.

Damaraland and Kaokoveld Experience Wow what an experience! I have done 8 trips to Namibia before to different areas and needed something unique for our next trip. T2N was the ultimate solution. Anschen and Anine and their energie, their knowledge of the off-beaten track gems was just what we needed. Their response and precision was to the T. The complete travel arrangements to Damaraland and Kaokoveld made by T2N went so smoothe without any issues. Accommodation was spot-on and the advice and route info they supplied just did the trick. Great memory and experience thanks to theT2N teams efforts and dedicated work. Will definitely make all my travel arrangements through them again and highly recommend T2N to anyone super and honest travel service. Salute to T2N - job well done
