For guests looking to explore further afield, the Otjiwa Collection includes additional accommodation options and activities. The wider reserve features other lodges and camps that suit different styles of travel, from family-friendly stays to more private safari experiences, allowing guests to tailor their itinerary. Activities such as bush breakfasts, sundowner drives and visits to nearby Himba villages further enrich the experience, offering cultural insight alongside wildlife encounters.
