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.

I wanted to arrange a visit to South…
I wanted to arrange a visit to South Africa , bringing my family of 14, to celebrate my 80th birthday in 2027. Sara was unbelievable. Not only did she come up with a great itinerary but my many emails to her were answered almost immediately. I could not fault her customer service and I would highly recommend using her services to anyone planning a trip to South Africa, be it a safari or a combination safari/travel trip.

Great experience with Sara from Safari.com!
We planned a journey to namibia and found safari.com as an interesting travel agency. Sara was fantastic. She had great ideas and always tried to realize what we had in our mind and finally planned an amazing journey for us. We skipped plans, hotels and changed ideas, but all the time she was very professional, patient and enthusiatic about planning the perfect journey. Even in Namibia we stayed in contact with her and she helped us when we where behind schedule because of delays. Thank you so much Sara for planning this for us, we will keep this journey in our hearts and minds! I would highly recommend safari.com and specially Sara to anyone planning a journey in Africa!

3rd Safari. Best Service Ever.
For our South Africa, Zimbabwe and Botswana safari trip I went to Safari.com to do the planning. I gave them where we wanted to go, what we wanted to do, and how many days to do it in. Sara became my planner. I would add that we do 2-3 international trips each year; me doing the initial planning, a local agency doing the details. Sara was one of the best. Her communications were clear and to the point. She understood the many many many questions I asked and responded each time rapidly. We changed the itinerary many many many times and her responses showed how knowledgeable and experienced she is. I was so impressed I contacted her boss Oliver to express my satisfaction with everything she and Safari.com provided. We booked and now look forward to our third African safari. Sara, we thank you.
