Erindi Private Game Reserve
Far away in Africa, a country exists where it is still possible to wander in a landscape that contains many more creatures than people. Namibia has its fascinating desert, its own canyon, the Etosha pan and endless savannah, but on a vast mountainous plain lies Erindi, translated as "The Place of Water" in local Herero, with more than 12 000 head of game teeming over an unbelievably large game reserve, where even rare and endangered species are being conserved and managed in a manner that allows man to experience what it was once like to live in undisturbed Africa…

Early morning Game Drives
The day begins before first light with an early wake up call. We meet at the main lodge where the kitchen
prepares hot brewed coffee, tea, home made rusks, muffins and fresh fruit juice. We depart in the Land Rovers, the air crisp and the morning alive with the sounds of the bush. The rangers have an
intimate knowledge of the environment, reading signs of last night’s activity they take us into their world. It’s not long before we pick up the spoor of a predator left not long before as the
first rays of sun pierce the mountains in the distance. Communicating by radio the vehicles share information on sightings giving us a greater chance of experiencing as much as
possible.
Evening Game Drives
A short trip takes us to where all the vehicles meet for sundowners. Intense golden hues make the evening surreal as we sip on cocktails and enjoy light snacks. The light softens after a
magnificent sunset, as the sun dips behind the horizon, the air cools and day transforms to night. Animals leave the safety of their daytime shelters. The numerous nocturnal hunters, including
lion and genet pick up scent trailing the night air.Evening trips also bring incredible viewing of little creatures such as striped polecat, African wild cat, bat eared foxes, porcupine and
pangolin, brown hyena, spotted hyena and jackal.
