SESRIEM - GETTING AROUND

By Car

Exploring the area by car or 4x4 vehicle is a great way to see the area at your own pace. The roads leading to Sesriem and Sossusvlei are generally well-maintained gravel roads that are accessible to most vehicles. However, a 4x4 vehicle may be necessary for driving on sand dunes and accessing more remote areas.

By Guided Tour

There are several tour operators in the area that provide guided tours to Sossusvlei, Deadvlei, Sesriem Canyon, and other nearby attractions. These tours may include transportation, guided hikes, and informative commentary about the area's geology, flora and fauna.

By Shuttle Service

Some accommodations offer shuttle services. If you are staying close by, inquire about shuttle services available to guests.

By Walking

Within Sesriem itself, it's possible to see the area on foot, especially around Sesriem Canyon and some nearby viewpoints. However, you'll want to take into consideration the hot temperatures and bring plenty of water, sunscreen, and the appropriate footwear for walking on uneven terrains.
