Serra Cafema Camp has been built on the banks of the Kunene River in the very remote north-west Namibia, this area is owned by the Himba people, they are some of the last semi-nomadic people on earth. It is recommended that you also visit Etosha National Park and Swakopmund to experience the contrasts that Namibia has to offer.
Serra Cafema Camp is situated on the banks of the Kunene River in the very remote northwest of Namibia. This area is owned by the Himba people, who are among the last semi-nomadic communities on Earth.
This is an incredibly quiet and peaceful section of Hartmann’s Valley. The camp features eight en-suite tents, each equipped with ceiling fans and mosquito nets, and is built on elevated decks. The facilities include outdoor and indoor dining areas, a sunken lounge, a swimming pool, and a library stocked with numerous books about the unique wildlife and plant life of the Namib Desert.
The Kunene River, the only source of permanent water in the area, creates an oasis effect near its banks and is home to Nile crocodiles. Other animals found in the vicinity include springbok, gemsbok, and Hartmann’s mountain zebra.
Activities at Serra Cafema focus on the authentic Himba culture and how this community coexists within the harsh conditions of the Namib Desert. Guests can also explore the lush oases along the river, which offer a stark contrast to the surrounding sand dunes. The quad biking trails are magnificent, and great care is taken to ensure the delicate habitats in the area are not endangered. Boating trips along the Kunene River are a must, as they allow visitors to observe how water transforms a desert region. Along the riverbanks, a variety of flora can be seen, and there is a good chance of spotting several crocodiles.

Outstanding Experience! (Cape Town, Sabi Sands, Vic Falls)
After attempting to book this trip myself (a couple coming from the US), I gave up and reached out to Sara from Safari.com. I told Sara what I was thinking and by the next day she had created several wonderful itineraries! Based on her suggestions, we personalized the itineraries and within 7 days I was booked and all set!! Sara was available at all times (before, during, and after the trip). We are currently heading home and we are so happy with all the bookings Sara created for us! Everything went flawlessly. Her 3rd parties for tours and transfers were perfect (always early, professional, knowledgeable, and kind). The hotel acknowledged our anniversary thanks to Sara. We stayed at the Victoria & Alfred hotel in Cape Town, then off to Dulini Moya in Sabi Sands, and finally Victoria Falls Island Treehouse in Zimbabwe. I highly recommend all of them. Tell Sara what you envision your experience to be and your budget and she will make it happen!! Her knowledge was so helpful in assisting us to choose the perfect itinerary. It was comforting that she kept in touch while we were traveling throughout Africa. I feel so lucky to have had Sara arrange this trip and will certainly request her expertise again in the future!! You won’t have to worry about anything because she is on top of it all. Do not hesitate!! Book with Sara from Safari.com!

Sara is the best
Sara is the best! Believe me we had tons of questions about our upcoming safari and all were dealt with quickly and with detail and graciousness by Sara. Considering the 7 hr time difference, response time was as if she lived next door! Maybe she doesn't sleep. Sara's knowledge is also outstanding. We never received an "I don't know but will get back to you" response. We are so looking forward to our trip especially knowing that Sara is always available to help us out!

Anja at Safari.com was a great partner to work with!
Working with Anja at Safari.com was great. She was able to work some magic and got us a few nights at the safari lodge we really wanted, Ngoma. Unfortunately, our flight from the USA to South Africa was canceled and we were rebooked a day later but Anja was great about making sure our lodge and the transports knew about the change in plans and made sure we got to our trip as soon as we could. She was a great partner to have and communicated quickly whenever we reached out. I would highly recommend using her when planning a trip to Africa!
