We are planning a self drive safari in northern Namibia for May next year - arrangements still fluid but getting firmer.

My tour operator, who is helping me plan the trip, has suggested the Sossus Oasis Campsite instead. I had discounted the lodge inside the national park because it appeared expensive for the quality of the accommodation…

We are thinking of driving from Divundu to Waterberg Plateau in a day - is this feasible or should we break the journey with a night somewhere?
