Getting there: Qantas flies direct from Sydney to Johannesburg, from where it is a two-hour flight with SAA or Airlink (both daily) or FlySafair (Tuesdays and Saturdays) to Windhoek, Namibia's capital. There is an airstrip at Onguma for private charter flights. Onguma and Etosha National Park are a 5.5-hour drive from Windhoek. Guests are welcome to self-drive to Onguma, but you may only explore the reserve on a guided game drive. It is possible to go into Etosha National Park while on a game drive with Onguma. Staying there: The lodges at Onguma nature reserve offer various levels of comfort, ranging from a well-maintained camp site to ultra-exclusive Camp Kala. Minimum two-night stays at Trails Camp, a luxurious glamp-camp that opened in April 2025, are $2160 for two nights (all inclusive), but three nights will allow for a more engaging experience. Families are welcome at some of Onguma's lodges; Trails Camp is available to over-16s only, and is open during the cooler months, from April 1 to September 30. Need to know: As of April 1 this year, most nationalities now need a visa to enter Namibia. Australians are eligible for a visa on arrival; this costs $N1600 ($133). See mha.gov.na for details.
