Where the Wild Roams Free

Experience Close Encounters with Namibia’s Plains Game on Guided Walks and Game Drives.

At Waldeck, wildlife isn’t just a backdrop – it’s part of the experience. With over 6,000 free-roaming animals across 16,000 hectares of private wilderness, every game drive and guided bush walk invites you into the rhythm of the land. Set out in the golden light of early morning or late afternoon to track giraffe, zebra, kudu, oryx and countless other plains game, all thriving in their natural habitat. On foot, you’ll feel the pulse of the bush more intimately – guided by experienced rangers who reveal the hidden stories of the landscape. Whether you’re spotting wildlife from a safari vehicle or quietly observing on a walk, Waldeck offers an unforgettable, immersive encounter with Namibia’s wild heart.
